If you’ve ever found yourself saying how much you hate your smile, maybe it’s time for a change. Do you often use a closed-mouth smile when taking photos? Do you cover your mouth when you laugh?
It’s not fair for anyone to feel embarrassed about their smile, which is why, here at Favero Family Dental, Drs. K Favero and Stephen Blake Favero work hard to bring out the best in everyone’s smile by offering a variety of highly effective smile improvement options, including teeth veneers.
Dental veneers are thin sheets of translucent material that mimic the overall shape, color, and texture of natural teeth. They are used to cover up imperfections such as gaps, discoloration, mishaps, and uneven teeth.
They are fantastic for giving the appearance of a perfectly aligned and brightened smile without all of the time-consuming treatments it would take to achieve these results otherwise. As you can guess, many Hollywood and music stars use veneers to achieve their iconic smiles.
Placing veneers is not as simple as putting up a new set of curtains. A talented dentist must first create precise impressions of your teeth, which the dental lab will use to make your new veneers. They must also ensure your veneers will match the shape, color, and size of your teeth.
Often, a dentist’s skill can be evaluated by how “fake” or “cartoonish” the newly placed veneers appear. An underqualified dentist can also use veneers that may not be as durable or are more prone to damage.
At Favero Family Dental, you can rest assured that your smile is in the hands of seasoned pros with years of expertise and knowledge. Drs. Favero use only the highest-quality materials and are masters at crafting veneers that are a perfect fit for your unique smile.
The two commonly used materials for making veneers are composite resin and porcelain. While composite resin is cheaper, porcelain is the number one choice because of its durability and lifelike appearance. Porcelain is less likely to become stained or chipped and can last 15 years longer than composite resin.
Your first visit will be your consultation, during which you and Drs. Favero will discuss your expectations and goals. You will have a dental exam so we can better understand your oral health. Finally, we will take impressions and photos of your teeth.
During the preparation stage, your teeth are polished and cleaned. The doctor will remove a thin layer of tooth enamel to fit the veneers and to ensure a better bond. Your impressions are also sent to a lab for veneer fabrication.
You’ll also receive temporary veneers while you wait for your permanent veneers to be made in the dental lab.
During your final appointment, Drs. Favero will place your new veneers, making minor adjustments as needed to ensure the best fit, feel, and color. Your veneers are finally bonded to your teeth using a special dental cement. Lastly, we remove the extra cement and give your veneers a beautiful polish.
