When you have more than just teeth stains, but want to obtain a bright and beautiful smile, then you could benefit from our porcelain veneers. These are thin shells of porcelain that can tackle more than one cosmetic concerns at one time. In today’s blog, your Brighton, MA dentist talks about custom porcelain veneers.
Cosmetic Improvement in Two Visits
The process of creating and placing custom porcelain veneers only takes two visits. When we complete them and attach them to the front of your teeth, this means we can mask permanent teeth stains, the type that could resist traditional teeth whitening. In addition, we could address concerns with the shape of the teeth and even repair minor damage. Placing them can close gaps between teeth, including black triangle spaces. We could use them to lengthen worn down teeth, and even correct the appearance of minor misalignment, so you obtain a straighter-looking smile without the need for braces or aligners. For some, this is a complete smile makeover in two visits.
Creating and Attaching Your Veneers
During your first visit, our team will numb the tooth being treated so you remain comfortable as we remove structure from it to make room for your new veneers. Once we do, we will gather detailed digital images and measurements of the tooth, which we will use to design and create them in a lab setting. Once your restorations are ready, you will return to the office. When you do, we will check the fit and make any necessary adjustments before we attach them with a powerful bonding agent. Once in place, they can lasty for years to come with proper care and attention. The porcelain we use is not only very durable, but we can shade it to blend with your tooth and offer a lifelike appearance!
Maintaining Your Cosmetic Restorations
We will monitor your new restorations during your routine six-month visits for checkups, and also clean them along with the rest of the smile to remove harmful plaque and tartar buildup. These actions, along with daily brushing and flossing, help protect the teeth we have attached your restorations to from issues like tooth decay, infection, or gum disease, so your smile stays whole and your restorations remain bright. If you have any questions about how we protect smiles and improve them with cosmetic veneers, then contact our team today to learn more.
