WHAT CAN VENEERS CHANGE?
You might be surprised at how drastic the change can be when you choose to get dental veneers in Sarasota, Florida. Dental veneers can change your teeth in a variety of ways, including:
- color
- length
- shape
- size
For example, if you’ve always felt like your teeth look like baby teeth and you’d rather have a fuller, more adult look to your teeth, dental veneers can achieve that for you. Another example might be if one of your teeth is noticeably shorter than the rest of your teeth. In that case, you might like to get just one dental veneer for that tooth. Don’t worry, our dentists will ensure that the dental veneer color perfectly matches the rest of your teeth!
WHO SHOULD GET DENTAL VENEERS?
Veneers are appropriate for any adult who wishes to have a different look to their teeth. However, there are some dental conditions that certainly warrant dental veneers, and which dental veneers can fix. These include:
- crooked teeth
- crowded teeth
- teeth with gaps in between
- discolored teeth
- worn enamel
- chipped teeth
- cracked teeth
If you have any of these conditions, our dentists may recommend that you consider getting dental veneers.
Another very common reason that people get dental veneers is purely cosmetic. Many well-known celebrities get dental veneers because they are in the public eye almost every day. Other people who are not celebrities get dental veneers because they want to look better. There’s really no reason why you should have to appear in public with less than perfect looking teeth. Dental veneers are available to solve dental problems, but they’re also readily available for cosmetic purposes.
HOW ARE DENTAL VENEERS APPLIED?
The process of getting dental veneers is really quite simple. The Our dentists will remove a very thin layer of enamel from your tooth. This simply roughs up the surface so that the dental veneer can more easily grip the tooth. The dentists will then take an impression of all your teeth that will get a veneer. That impression—or mold—will be sent to a dental lab, where your custom veneers will be made. Note that you will have a choice regarding the veneer color and materials used. You’ll return to the dentist’s office for a fitting once the veneers are ready. At that point, the dental veneers will be temporarily fitted to your teeth to ensure a proper fit. If all is good, the dental veneers will be permanently bonded to your teeth. But first, the dentists will clean and polish your teeth so the surface is entirely clean and ready to accept the veneers. During the bonding process, the dentists uses a special laser light to make the seal permanent.
HOW TO CARE FOR VENEERS
Your dental veneers will last up to ten years or more. You should be careful to follow your dentist’s instructions for how to ensure long-lasting wear of your veneers. One thing you will definitely want to do is continue to see your dentist for dental veneers so you can ensure lasting oral health.
