Dental Veneers Veneers are thin fittings placed on the front surfaces of the teeth to enhance their appearance and prevent them from damage. It can also improve your smile since the shell is made to bond with the natural teeth in shape, color, and size. There is a variety of shell options to match your teeth color. Veneer treatment procedures can also serve restorative functions such as correcting chipping or discolorations on your teeth. Therefore, veneers can fix dental problems and are also used for cosmetic purposes. Our professional staff at Ortega Family Dental can help ensure that you get the treatment that suits you.Types of VeneersThere are two types of veneers, namely; composite and porcelain veneers. Our dental experts will prepare the shells for composite veneers (composite resin material) and fix them on your teeth. They are made inside your mouth during your appointment, meaning one visit is enough to place your composite veneers. Considering their ease of placement, they require less of your tooth enamel to be removed and are often used to correct minor dental problems. Therefore, you can have several veneers placed in a single visit. Unlike composite veneers, porcelain veneers are made in a laboratory. Our dentist will first review your tooth, chip off the rough edges, and measure the exact size of the veneer required before going ahead to custom-make one that fits your tooth's actual size. Since it requires two appointments, our dentist will take the impression in the first appointment, and place the custom-made veneer in the second visit. With the right dental practices, porcelain veneers should last longer than composite veneers, as they do not stain easily. Advantages of Dental VeneersMost people opt for veneers either for aesthetic or restorative purposes due to the many befits that veneers offer. One significant advantage of veneers is that they provide stronger teeth to withstand bacteria that eat off the enamel. They are also stain-resistant. Composite veneers are easy to repair if they break or chip; they can also be placed in large numbers in a single visit. Secondly, veneers help preserve the appearance of your natural teeth to give you a perfect smile. Veeners can also be a shade whiter than your natural teeth since they are custom-made to suit your needs. The method is tender to your teeth compared to other dental restoration procedures, which require a lot of filing of the teeth. Getting veneers may require little or no anesthesia, and the results are evident once the treatment is complete. Thirdly, dental veneers can be taken care of just like your regular teeth. Veneers can also be used as a safe teeth whitening option compared to other methods that use substances that may be invasive to your teeth and gums. Dental veneers can help you fix various dental problems such as stained teeth, worn-out teeth, uneven, or misaligned teeth.
