Custom Crafted for You
What are veneers?
Veneers are thin, custom-made shells made from tooth-colored materials such as porcelain. They are designed to cover the front, sides, and edges of your teeth. These shells are made from porcelain that can mimic the luminosity of natural teeth. There are different types of porcelain depending on the desired results, and composite resin is sometimes an option as well.
Veneers are bonded to your teeth to enhance their color, shape, size, or length, creating a more balanced, beautiful smile. Veneers are an excellent option for individuals looking to address a range of cosmetic dental issues, such as stained or discolored teeth, chipped or broken teeth, misaligned or uneven teeth, and gaps between teeth.
Superlative Care
What is the veneer procedure like?
The veneer procedure typically involves two visits. During the first visit, before placing your new veneer, your doctor may need to conservatively prepare your tooth to achieve the desired aesthetic result.
A small amount of enamel is removed to prepare the tooth’s surface for the veneer. To prepare for veneers, your doctor will then create a unique model of your teeth. This model is sent to a dental technician who brings the veneers to life.
Once your veneers are ready, you’ll return to our office for the second visit. Your dentist will temporarily fit the veneers onto your teeth to check the fit and color. At this point, they can make any necessary adjustments before permanently bonding the veneers to your teeth. The bonding process involves a special adhesive that hardens under a curing light, securing the veneers in place. The result is a beautiful smile enhancement that looks and feels natural.
Your Smile Restoration
What conditions do veneers address?
Veneers offer an innovative way to address a variety of cosmetic dental concerns. They are commonly used to:
- Cover discolored or stained teeth that fail to respond well to whitening treatments.
- Repair chipped or broken teeth, restoring their natural appearance.
- Correct minor misalignments to create a more uniform smile.
- Close unwanted spaces between teeth, improving the overall symmetry of your smile.
- Reshape teeth that are too small, uneven, or oddly shaped.
Our Paramus office is able to take records and work with the laboratory to give you a preview of what you could achieve with a set of veneers. It’s called a “pre-vu pre-new,” and it’s a minor investment to ensure you are making the choice that’s right for you!
What are the benefits of veneers?
Veneers offer several cosmetic and functional benefits:
- Natural Appearance: We custom-craft your veneers to match the shape and color of your natural teeth, providing a seamless and natural-looking result.
- Stain Resistance: Porcelain veneers are highly resistant to stains, helping your smile stay bright and beautiful.
- Durability: Veneers are strong and durable, potentially lasting many years with proper care.
- Minimal Tooth Reduction: Compared to other restorative options, veneers require minimal removal of tooth enamel.
- Quick Transformation: The veneer procedure is relatively quick, typically completed within two visits, offering an efficient and effective way to enhance your smile.
Precision Care Personalized to You
Am I a candidate for veneers?
The veneer procedure helps you significantly elevate the appearance of your smile with minimal invasiveness or downtime. You may be a candidate for veneers if you have:
- Healthy teeth and gums with no significant decay or periodontal disease.
- Cosmetic concerns such as discoloration, chips, gaps, or minor misalignments.
- A commitment to good oral hygiene to maintain the longevity of your veneers.
Veneers may not be immediately suitable for patients with severely misaligned teeth or those who grind their teeth excessively, as these conditions can affect the integrity of the teeth and longevity of the veneers. These things are not a no, however, just a “not yet.” Sometimes other dentistry is required before investing in the veneers. Dr. Cassandra is an expert at identifying these concerns during your consultation and exam. Dr. Cassandra will determine whether you are a good candidate for dental veneers and go over your treatment options.
Attentive Care at Every Step
Veneers Recovery
Having veneers placed comes with minimal recovery time. After the procedure, you may experience slight sensitivity to hot or cold temperatures, which typically subsides within a few days. Practicing diligent oral hygiene is vital to keeping your veneers and natural teeth in optimal condition. Avoid biting on hard objects or using your teeth to open packages, as this can damage your veneers. Stay current on your dental visits to preserve the beauty and integrity of your veneers.
Transform Your Confidence
Veneers Results
Veneers offer immediate and long-lasting results. When your veneers are placed, you’ll be pleased to see that they look like your natural teeth. With proper care, veneers can last 10-15 years or more. While veneers are stain-resistant, your doctor may recommend that you avoid abrasive toothpastes to maintain the luster of the veneers and the beauty of your new smile. Your veneers will look and feel smooth and comfortable, providing you with a beautiful, confident smile for years to come!
