Hi! Welcome to the Smiles For Life Dental Care dental blog where we take the time to answer dental questions. Today we are focusing on fabulous veneers, which are used extensively in cosmetic dentistry.
Dental veneers (also called laminates) are custom-made to permanently cover the front part of one or more teeth. Wafer-thin, super-strong veneers can correct a variety of problems including:
1. Chips 2. Cracks 3. Stains 4. Teeth that are misshapen 5. Teeth that are too short 6. Teeth that are misaligned 7. Gaps between teethTo create perfect-fitting veneers, your dentist will first create a model of your teeth. Then, a skilled technician will use the model to fabricate the laminates. In some veneer procedures, a small amount of the enamel from the face of the tooth has to be removed. Today’s veneer process leaves most of your healthy tooth structure. Please call 540-828-2312 and a member of our welcoming staff can answer any questions you have about veneers. We can also tell you about teeth whitening, invisible braces, or smile makeovers.
