Using veneers for covering crooked front teeth
Crooked teeth at the front of the smile can have a significantly negative impact on its appearance. It can also cause some patients to feel self-conscious about how they look when they smile, laugh, and socialize with friends and family. To address this, patients will need to ask their dental team about cosmetic dentistry solutions such as porcelain veneers. Our dentists at Dentistry at LaSalle work with patients in and around the Burlington, Ontario, area who are considering ways to disguise imperfections in their smiles.
What are porcelain veneers?
Porcelain veneers are described as thin but strong pieces of porcelain custom-made to fit over the front surface of your teeth. These veneers can disguise imperfections such as crooked or uneven teeth, discoloration, and minor gaps between teeth. Porcelain veneers are bonded to the tooth with a durable composite resin that allows them to blend seamlessly with your natural smile. They are also stain-resistant, so they will look great for many years.
What to expect when getting artificial teeth coverings
Porcelain veneers are popular because they are fast, easy, and long-lasting! Patients first undergo a consultation visit, during which one of our dentists will decide if a patient is a good candidate for veneers. Other options, such as dental bonding or orthodontia, are also discussed to give patients choices for their best treatment. Once patients have chosen to move forward with porcelain veneers, our team will prepare the tooth by removing a tiny amount of the enamel on the front face of the tooth. Impressions are made, and the veneer is created at a dental laboratory. Once completed, patients return to the office to have their final veneer placed.
