Smile with Confidence

What are porcelain dental veneers?

Porcelain dental veneers are thin, custom-made shells of tooth-colored materials designed to cover the front surface of teeth. These high-quality ceramic shells are bonded to the front of the teeth to improve their appearance. Veneers can change the color, shape, size, or length of your teeth, providing a natural-looking solution for various cosmetic dental issues. At our Paramus office, we use advanced materials and techniques to create virtually indistinguishable veneers from natural teeth.

Personalized Smile Design

What is the dental veneer procedure like?

The porcelain veneer process typically involves several steps. We begin with a consultation to discuss your goals and design your ideal smile.

Next, we prepare your teeth by removing a small amount of enamel where necessary to make room for the veneers. We then take detailed impressions of your teeth, which are used to create your custom veneers in a dental laboratory. While your permanent veneers are being crafted, we provide temporary veneers. Temporary veneers allow you to preview your new smile before the laboratory specialists bring the veneers to life. Once your custom veneers are ready, we carefully bond them to your teeth, ensuring a perfect fit and natural appearance.

Long-Lasting Smile Enhancement

What conditions do dental veneers address?

Porcelain veneers are versatile and can address a wide range of cosmetic dental issues. They're excellent for correcting discolored teeth that haven't responded to whitening treatments. Dental veneers can also mask chips, cracks, or worn teeth. They're effective in closing small gaps between teeth and can even help with minor misalignment issues and undersized teeth. For teeth that are misshapen or slightly crooked, veneers can create a more uniform, aligned appearance. They are an excellent way to rejuvenate a smile and restore a youthful look so that you feel refreshed and confident.

Focused Aesthetic Improvement

What areas of the mouth can porcelain veneers address?

Porcelain veneers specifically address the visible parts of your teeth, focusing on the teeth that show when you smile. A detailed consultation will allow you and the doctor to determine which teeth are best suited for veneers.

While veneers directly impact your teeth, the overall effect can transform your entire facial appearance. A beautifully enhanced smile can boost your confidence, affecting how you carry yourself and interact with others. The psychological impact of a renewed smile can be significant, often leading to improved self-esteem and social interactions.

What are the benefits of porcelain veneers?

Dental veneers offer numerous benefits. They provide a natural-looking solution for various cosmetic dental issues, instantly improving the appearance of your smile. Veneers are highly durable and resistant to stains, maintaining their bright appearance for years. They require minimal tooth preparation compared to other cosmetic procedures, preserving more of your natural tooth structure. Veneers can also protect the surface of damaged teeth. Perhaps most importantly, they can dramatically boost your confidence by giving you a smile you're proud to show off.

Am I a candidate for porcelain veneers?

Many people are good candidates for porcelain veneers. Ideal candidates have generally healthy teeth and gums but are unhappy with the appearance of their smile. You might be a good candidate for veneers if you have discolored or chipped teeth, or spaces between your teeth that don't require orthodontic treatment. Having realistic expectations and being committed to maintaining good oral hygiene is important. During your consultation, we'll assess your oral health and discuss whether veneers are the best option for achieving your smile goals.

Porcelain Veneer Recovery

Recovery after getting porcelain veneers is typically quick and comfortable.

You may experience some sensitivity to hot and cold temperatures for a few days after the procedure, but this is usually mild and temporary. Most patients can return to their normal activities immediately. We recommend avoiding hard or sticky foods for the first few days to allow the bonding material to be fully set. Good oral hygiene practices are crucial to maintaining your new smile and the health of your natural teeth beneath the veneers.
