Veneers

Veneers

If you have one or multiple missing teeth, we may recommend artificial teeth replacements. Earlier, only dentures were used as artificial replacements for missing teeth. But today, many other better options are available that provide you with restoration and improve the functionality of your teeth and the appearance of your smile.

What are the Types of Veneers?

Porcelain Veneers

They are the most common type of veneers that match the natural appearance of your teeth. We apply them to your mouth by gently grinding the surface of your teeth and then taking an impression of your teeth to create the mold. The mold is then sent to the lab to prepare a porcelain veneer.

 

Once the porcelain veneers are ready, we place them on your prepared teeth and cement them in place.

Composite Resin Veneers

To fit this type of veneer, we will etch your teeth’ surface before applying a layer of composite material to your prepared teeth. Afterward, we may apply more layers of composite resin as necessary. The procedure finishes by curing or hardening the veneers using a special light.

 

No-Prep Veneers

No-Prep veneers do not require any preparation for their application. They do not take a lot of time and are less invasive to apply. Under this procedure, we do not remove the layers of your teeth, and they only affect your enamel. The procedure doesn’t require any local anesthesia.

What are the oral issues that veneers can help resolve?

The benefits of veneers are as follows:

 

1. Fix gaps between your teeth in a natural-looking way.

2. Conceal chips and worn areas of your teeth from further damage.

3. Help get rid of permanent stains and restore your teeth’s natural appearance.

4. Help your uneven and misshapen teeth look uniform.

5. Fix slightly crooked teeth and give you a straight smile.

6. Prevent the discomfort caused by tooth sensitivity.

What are the Benefits of Veneers?

  • Dental veneers are a popular cosmetic dental procedure used to enhance the overall appearance of your smile. If you are suffering from badly-discolored teeth, make veneers your go-to treatment.
  • Veneers are also used to cover the gaps between your teeth.
  • We use this procedure to restore chipped or broken teeth, pointed and unusually shaped teeth.
  • The procedure is affordable and easily available.
  • Dental veneers last for over a decade. All you need to do is to follow regular oral care.

How is the Procedure Performed?

We will discuss the type of veneers suitable for your teeth during the consultation. You may need to visit our clinic more than once for the procedure. We carry out the X-ray to evaluate the fit, shape, and size. We also check the coloration of your teeth to prepare the exact matching veneers. Before applying and cementing the veneers, we clean your teeth thoroughly to ensure that the bacteria and other external elements are washed away. Thereafter, we cement the dental veneers on your teeth. Please reach out to our dental practice in Sacramento, CA, to consult with our dentists, Dr. Rollofson Porrino and Dr. Fouladi.
