If you want a smile that looks good and helps you feel more confident, then you should consider an appointment for cosmetic dentistry. With options like porcelain veneers, we can create a striking new smile in just two visits. In today’s blog, your Prairie Village, KS, dentist talks about the benefits of our custom veneers.
The Benefits of Treatment With Veneers
Each porcelain veneer we create and place is attached to the front facing side of a tooth. Once attached, this instantly changes the shape and color of the tooth, so you see instant changes to the smile. For example, we can attach them to cover up teeth stains that may be too severe for teeth whitening. We can fill in black triangle spaces and gaps between the teeth. Placement can address misshapen teeth and even provide repair for minor injuries. We could use them to lengthen worn down teeth too, and improve overall bite balance. Placement even corrects the appearance of minor misalignment, which can mean a straighter smile without the need for braces or aligners.
Creating and Placing Our Custom Veneers
How do we create and secure your new veneers? To begin, we numb the teeth being treated so that you stay comfortable as we remove a thin layer of outer enamel from them. Next, we take detailed digital images of the teeth from multiple angles, which we use to design and craft your new restoration. The porcelain we use to make them is very strong and durable, but can be shaded to blend with the smile. When we have completed your new veneers, we will have you return to the office. We check the fit to make sure final adjustments are not needed and then we move forward with placing them using a powerful bonding agent. They can now stay in place for years to come, transforming the appearance of your smile.
Keeping Your Smile Bright
To ensure they last, we need to protect the teeth we have attached them to from issues like tooth decay, infection, or gum disease. You should see our team for a checkup and cleaning every six months, and also brush and floss your teeth daily to help keep your smile healthy. This also helps ensure they stay bright too. If you have any questions about how we transform the appearance of your smile with our new restoration, then contact our office today. We’re ready to help your smile shine!
