Dental veneers are ultra-thin, custom-made shells designed to cover the front surfaces of your teeth, instantly enhancing your smile. Made from durable materials such as porcelain or resin, veneers are an effective solution for correcting various cosmetic concerns. Porcelain veneers are particularly popular for their ability to mimic the natural translucency of enamel while offering stain resistance to maintain a bright smile over time. Resin veneers, while typically more cost-effective, can also be color-matched to blend seamlessly with your natural teeth.
Reasons to Consider Dental Veneers
Dr. Javier Tapia may recommend veneers to address several aesthetic and structural imperfections in your smile. Custom veneers can be applied to individual teeth or used across your entire smile for a complete transformation. Common reasons to consider veneers include:
- Closing noticeable gaps or spaces between teeth
- Restoring brightness to teeth that are severely stained or discolored
- Correcting the appearance of unevenly shaped or slightly crooked teeth
- Repairing teeth that are chipped, cracked or worn
Each veneer is tailored to your unique needs, ensuring a comfortable fit and a natural appearance.
The Veneer Placement Process
The process of getting veneers typically requires two to three visits. During your initial consultation, our dentist will evaluate your teeth and discuss your smile goals. Once you decide to proceed, we will prepare your teeth by gently removing a small amount of enamel to accommodate the veneers. Next, we will take impressions of your teeth to create your custom veneers.
At your follow-up appointment, your final veneers will be bonded to your teeth using a strong adhesive, resulting in a beautiful, long-lasting smile. With proper care, veneers can last for many years, making them a worthwhile investment in your confidence.
