What are Dental Veneers?
Porcelain veneers are thin, shell-like restorations that can be bonded to the surface of the enamel to improve and enhance its appearance. Porcelain veneers can be custom-made from advanced porcelain material that would closely resemble the patient’s natural teeth. Dental veneers can correct several cosmetic dental problems, including stained teeth, crooked teeth, discolored teeth, chipped teeth, and gaps between teeth.
The Dental Veneers Process in Bryan College Station, TX
If you are considering dental veneers, you should consult with Dr. Rahimi-Thornton to determine if they are the correct cosmetic dental procedure for you. The process is relatively simple if you decide to proceed with dental veneers. First, the Thornton Dental team will scan your teeth. We will use this scan to create a model of your teeth. Once we complete the model, we will use it to create the porcelain veneers.
After the porcelain veneers are created, Dr. Rahimi-Thornton will bond them to your teeth. Once the veneers are bonded to your teeth, they will be virtually indistinguishable from your natural teeth.
Whether you choose to have Dr. Rahimi-Thornton use porcelain veneers on a single tooth, a few select teeth, or your entire smile, you’ll be astounded at the beautiful, natural-looking results!
Many Amazing Options for Beautiful Smiles
Because they offer an easier way to repair minor cosmetic problems, restore the lost structure, change the contour or length of your teeth, or instantly whiten your smile, veneers can be an attractive alternative to cosmetic bonding. When fitted over the front side of your teeth, we can use them to help conceal virtually any cosmetic flaw. At Thornton Dental, we also provide dental bonding, which can offer an effective alternative to veneers.
Porcelain veneers can fix:
- Crooked, cracked, or chipped teeth
- Discolored or permanently stained teeth
- Oddly shaped, short, or worn teeth
- Uneven edges or spaces between teeth
- Minor misalignments
How to Care for Dental Veneers
Dental veneers can last for many years with proper care. However, you must consult your dentist regularly to ensure that your veneers are still in good condition.
To care for your dental veneers, brush your teeth at least twice a day and floss daily. It is also essential to avoid biting or chewing hard objects, as this can damage the veneers. In addition, you should avoid using abrasive toothpaste, as it can also damage the veneers.
Am I a Good Candidate for Veneers?
Come get your exam done first. Dr. Rahimi-Thornton will do a thorough examination to determine if you are a candidate for veneers or what are the steps to become a veneer candidate.
