Veneers

Our Process

Initial Consultation and Examination

The dentist evaluates your teeth and discusses your aesthetic goals. This may include taking X-rays or making impressions of your mouth and teeth.

Tooth Preparation

To prepare for a veneer, the dentist removes a small amount of enamel from the tooth surface. This is to accommodate the thickness of the veneer and create a suitable surface for bonding.

Impression and Veneer Fabrication

After preparing the tooth, an impression is taken and sent to a dental lab, where your custom veneer is created. This process can take several days or weeks.

A temporary veneer may be placed while the permanent one is being made.

Fitting and Adjusting the Veneer

Once the veneer is ready, the dentist checks its fit and color, making any necessary adjustments to ensure a perfect match and comfortable fit.

Bonding the Veneer

The tooth is cleaned, polished, and etched to prepare for bonding. The veneer is then cemented to the tooth, and a special light beam is used to activate chemicals in the cement, causing it to harden quickly.

Final Adjustment and Review

After the veneer is placed, the dentist removes any excess cement and makes final adjustments to ensure a comfortable bite.

Post-Procedure Care and Maintenance

A follow-up visit may be scheduled to check the placement of the veneer and to examine the response of the gums to the veneer.
