Veneers: Bring on the Smile

Used to be veneers where used primarily to fix chipped or broken teeth, now days veneers can give you a completely new smile. Veneers are a thin layer of porcelain that is custom made to fit over your tooth in the shade of the rest of your surface teeth color. The veneer overlays can change the size, color, and even length of your existing teeth giving you a brand new smile.

Veneers are the most popular form of cosmetic Beverly Hills dentistry on the market today for several reasons. It is affordable, it can change a crooked tooth to look perfectly straight, fill in gaps between teeth, elongate teeth that are shorter then the norm giving one a bigger brighter smile, and totally change the color of your smile.

The process is quite simple and the rewards are remarkable. Impressions of your current teeth are taken and then a small amount of the existing tooth/teeth is removed. From the impressions and with the Beverly Hills dentist’s recommendations a dental lab constructs the veneers. The constructed veneers are then bonded to your existing teeth totally transforming your smile to the one you have always dreamed of having.

Veneers are made out of either a resin fused material or porcelain. Porcelain holds up better against stains and looks more natural then resin material. With the resin material, less of the existing tooth surface has to be removed before placement of resin veneer.

It generally takes three trips to your Beverly Hills dentist to complete the process of getting veneers. Your first appointment will consist of a consult where you share with your dentist the results you are seeking. Our dentist may take x-rays or even impressions of your teeth on the first appointment. The next two appointments will consist of the actual preparation of your tooth/teeth for the veneers, impressions and temporary veneers until the lab has completed constructing your permanent veneers. Your last appoint will consist of having your new smile made with the new permanent veneers placed and bonded on your tooth/teeth. The bonding process is simple and painless. A dental cement and bonding light are used to secure the veneer to your existing tooth/teeth.

Veneers are a fantastic way to get a total smile makeover giving a natural appearance with the benefits of porcelain veneers stain resistant and a better gum tissue tolerance level versus resin veneers. A darken tooth can be quickly transformed to match the rest of your teeth with a porcelain veneer. Unless you are planning on getting veneers on all of your exposed smile teeth and are wanting a whiter smile, make sure you whiten your teeth prior to getting your veneer that way when the new veneer is constructed it will be the color shade you are seeking. Once color is selected by matching existing teeth the veneer cannot be whitened by bleaching processes. You can count on getting that perfect smile you have always dreamed of with our expert dentist here in Beverly Hills.
