Achieving the Perfect Smile:
-
Dental veneers are a form of cosmetic dentistry that reshape and correct your teeth and make your smile a winning smile. Made from
porcelain, veneers are ultra-thin, custom
made restorations that are bonded on the front
surface of your teeth. Most cosmetic dental
problems, such as chipped, gapped, stained,
discolored, aged or misaligned teeth, can
be solved with porcelain veneers.
They can be used to lengthen or shorten your teeth
to restore a more youthful smile. Veneers
are an excellent replacement for old white
bonding fillings. This treatment, also referred
to as instant orthodontics, can reposition
your teeth and is a good alternative to traditional
braces if you want immediate results and present
with only minor misalignment of the teeth.
-
Not only are they comparable
to the strength of your natural enamel, veneers
resist discoloration and are the most natural
looking restoration available. Porcelain veneers
are custom made, and able to blend in with
your natural teeth, giving you the brightest,
whitest smile possible.
The Process:
-
Your porcelain veneers
are custom designed to give you the smile
that you want to achieve. Dr. Uddin will consult
with you to plan the color, shape and size
of the veneers to give you the beautiful,
bright smile you are looking for.
-
This simple procedure can
be completed in as little as two to three
visits. At the first visit, we will discuss
your goals and plan for your new smile. At
the second visit, your teeth are prepared
for porcelain veneers by removing a surface
layer of enamel. Unlike crowns or caps, veneers
require very little removal of the natural
tooth. Impressions are taken, and temporary
veneers shaped similar to your final veneers
are placed. These temporary veneers are used
as a guide to allow us create the exact size
and shape of veneers that look perfect for
your smile. The porcelain veneer is then custom-designed
to fit perfectly over each individual tooth.
