- Porcelain veneers are compatible with gum tissue
- Porcelain veneers ward off stains
- Natural-looking appearance
Dental veneers are a more traditional approach to altering the color and shape of your teeth. Unlike crowns, you do not need to undergo extensive shaping. For this reason, veneers are a much stronger and aesthetically pleasing option.
How Are Dental Veneers Applied?
You will need three visits to Dentists of Jupiter Farms for (1) consultation, (2) veneer creation, and (3) application.
Before any of the processes are done, we first need to know your desired results. On your first appointment, we will take a look at your teeth and determine if veneers are the ones you need. We may perform a dental x-ray and make impressions of your teeth and mouth.
We will clean out your tooth’s surface of a thin layer of enamel to prepare the area. We will ask you beforehand if you want local anesthesia for the pain. Next, we will make an impression of your tooth. Our dental laboratory will then take care of creating your veneers.
Before permanently affixing the veneers on your teeth, we will test its fit and color compatibility by putting it on your teeth temporarily. There may be alterations to the veneer a couple of times to ensure that they are the right fit. We might use cement should there be a need to adjust the color of the veneers. We secure the bonding process by cleaning and polishing your teeth.
A special cement is used to place your veneers on your teeth. After they are in the correct position, we will activate the cement chemicals with the use of a special light beam. This hardens the cement efficiently. Any excess cement will be removed. We will examine your bite, and if needed, make final adjustments.
Do Dental Veneers Need Special Care?
There is no need for special treatment for your veneers. However, do remember that your veneers will last as long as how much you take care of them. It is enough to have good oral hygiene. Brush and floss regularly. Even though porcelain veneers resist stain, we highly advise avoiding consuming foods and drinks that can stain them on a regular basis. It’s akin to water-resistant watches lasting longer when you don’t expose them to excessive water.
Having good oral hygiene minimizes tooth decay, especially in teeth that don’t have veneers. Moreover, with the absence of plaque, your tooth’s gum line is not at risk of gum disease, gingivitis, or inflammation.
Porcelain veneers can be damaged when exposed to activities of excessive force. This includes biting down on hard objects such as ice, fingernails, bottles, and many others. If you grind your teeth, this can break off your veneers. For more information on caring for your veneers, don’t hesitate to contact your local Jupiter Farms dentist..
