Do you wish you could makeover your smile? You may assume that such a process would involve multiple procedures. But what if a single procedure could transform your smile in only two visits? In today’s blog, your Lake Orion, MI, dentist talks about how we makeover your smile with the placement of one or more porcelain veneers.
The Difference Veneers Make
Each porcelain veneer is a very thin restoration, one designed to fit onto the front of a tooth. The porcelain material is very strong and durable, but can also be shaded to blend with your smile and offers a lifelike appearance. When in place, this can instantly reshape the tooth and mask common imperfections. For example, our team can cover permanent teeth stains that whitening cannot remove. We can lengthen worn down teeth, repair minor chips and cracks, and address misshapen teeth too. Placement could fill gaps and black triangle spaces between the teeth. We could also correct the appearance of minor misalignment, which means you could finally have a more even-looking smile without the need for braces or aligners. For some, this is a total smile makeover in two visits.
A Custom Approach
How do we create and place your new cosmetic restorations? To begin, we will prep the tooth receiving one by numbing it and removing a thin layer of outer enamel. Next, we take detailed images and impressions of your prepared tooth, which we use in a lab setting to design and craft your new veneer. When your restoration is ready, you return for a second visit so we can check the fit, make any necessary adjustments, and then attach the restoration with a powerful bonding agent. Once in place, your veneer can provide cosmetic improvement for years to come.
Maintaining Your New Cosmetic Restorations
With the right steps, you can keep them bright and also protect the teeth we have attached them to from the impact of issues like tooth decay, infection, and gum disease. This ensures a brighter appearance and stability for years to come. This crane should include daily brushing and flossing at home, a diet lower in sugar, and avoiding tobacco products. We also want to see you in our office for a checkup and cleaning every six months, so we can monitor your smile and your new restorations.
