Did you know with our thin porcelain veneers, we can actually take on multiple cosmetic issues at once? In fact, our team can help transform the smile with them! In today’s blog, your team at Allen and Neumann Family Dentistry talks about how we makeover smiles in Pella, IA, with our porcelain veneers.
The Cosmetic Capabilities of Veneers
Each veneer we attach to your smile is a very thin layer of porcelain, one that has been custom-made for your bite to ensure a comfortable fit and a lifelike appearance. Once attached, this instantly masks most cosmetic issues, and can even reshape the teeth. We can employ them to cover teeth stains too severe for traditional whitening methods, and to fill in open gaps between the teeth. We can address minor injuries, correct misshapen teeth, and even add length to worn down teeth too. Placement could also correct the appearance of minor misalignment too, so some could enjoy a straighter-looking smile without the need for braces. With the application of more than one, we could conduct a smile makeover for some!
Creating and Placing Your New Restorations
To ensure a lifelike appearance, balanced bite, and long-lasting restoration, we will custom-make these for our patients. To begin, we will numb the tooth/teeth being treated and then remove a thin layer of outer enamel. Doing so makes room for your new restoration. We then take images and measurements of the prepped tooth with digital technology, using wat we gather in a lab setting to design and craft your restoration. When your restorations are ready, we will attach them to the teeth in a follow-up visit with a powerful bonding agent. In the interim, we could offer temporaries to prevent sensitivity in your smile.
Keeping Your Results Strong
Once in place, these have the potential to last for years to come, and to ensure this is so, we want to help. You should see our team for a checkup and cleaning every six months so we can protect your smile and monitor your veneers. At home, be sure you brush and floss daily, limit sugar consumption, and avoid tobacco products. These actions can help protect your teeth and your new restorations, safeguarding your smile against serious concerns.
