Porcelain Veneers are small thin layers of porcelain customized to fit over the front of the patient’s tooth and mask its natural color and shape. Veneers improve the health and general appearance of the tooth by restoring its beautiful and natural appearance. Dental veneers are thin and translucent and are meant to mimic the light-reflecting properties of the tooth. Dentists use veneers to treat various cosmetic concerns such as discolored, broken, chipped, or smaller and average teeth. Veneers are an ideal way of concealing stained teeth which cannot be fixed by mere whitening. If you seek to create an even symmetrical smile, the NYC Smile dentists advise about six to eight veneers, depending on your preferences. Commonly, most patients prefer having veneers on their eight front teeth.
The dentist has to remove a small portion of the enamel to create room for the veneers. From the different available shades of porcelain veneers, the dentist advises on the most suitable shade and creates an impression of the teeth. The molding of the impression to create a custom-made veneer takes place in the lab and can take up to a week, depending on the number of veneers you need. The dentists will book you in for another appointment to fit in the veneers when they are ready. The dentist has to clean the teeth first, cross-check the size and fit, make any essential adjustments then bond the veneer to the tooth. Immediately after the procedure, you may have to let your dentist know if you have an abnormal bite so that necessary adjustments are also made to correct the issue.
After having the veneer fitted, avoid biting or chewing hard objects as the veneers can easily break under pressure. It probably takes a couple of days before you get used to the feel of having veneers on your teeth.
Some of the benefits of porcelain veneers include:
- They give a natural look
- Strong and long-lasting solution
- Teeth fitted with veneers do not stain easily
- Less damage to the tooth enamel
- Cost-effective in the long run
