Are you happy with the appearance of your smile when you look in the mirror? If the answer is no, there are plenty of cosmetic dental options<\/a> out there to improve the way your teeth look. One of the most common solutions out there is veneers because of their ability to transform numerous aspects of your smile at the same time. Veneers are thin shells of porcelain that are placed on front-facing surfaces of the teeth to mask imperfections. Here\u2019s what the process of getting veneers looks like.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Making Your Plan<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

First, you will need to put together a plan with your dentist. This occurs during your consultation so that you are on the same page going forward. You will discuss the goals that you have for your smile so they will be better able to achieve your goals. The more specific you can be \u2013 the better! Bring some photo examples of what you\u2019d like the final results to look like. Your dentist will give you their professional insight so you can agree on a beautiful, achievable end goal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Preparing Your Teeth<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

After you and your dentist are in agreement on a treatment plan, it\u2019s time to start preparing your teeth. A small amount of enamel is removed from the front facing surfaces of the teeth to make room for your veneers. Their goal is to remove as little tooth structure possible, as the enamel will not grow back.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Crafting Your Veneers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

After your teeth are prepped, impressions are taken and sent to the dental lab so your veneers can be custom-crafted just for you. In the meantime, you will be given a temporary set of veneers that will allow you to speak, chew, and smile with ease in the coming weeks until you can have your final ones placed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Placing Your Restorations<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Once your veneers are ready, you will need to return to the dental office. At this time, your veneers will be cemented to the front of your teeth. Your dentist does this by etching the inside of your veneers and the surface of your teeth with a mild acidic solution to open small pores. Next, a translucent dental cement is placed to fill the pores. This helps your veneers to become one with your teeth and remain secure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Veneers can give you the smile you\u2019ve always dreamed of. By working with your dentist, you can form a plan that\u2019s right for you!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
