PORCELAIN VENEERS

Veneers reshape the teeth and overall appearance of your smile. Veneers can be an alternative to crowns and is used to treat many dental conditions.
What is a Veneer?
Veneers are very thin pieces of durable, tooth shaped porcelain that are custom made for the patient. Veneers are bonded onto the front of teeth to create a beautiful and symmetric smile.
What is the process in a porcelain veneer procedure?
Plan to schedule two appointments to complete this procedure. The teeth are prepared by lightly buffing and shaping the surface to allow for the thickness of the veneer. A mold or impression of the teeth is taken and a shade to match your existing tooth color is chosen by you and Dr. Ideus.
At the second appointment, bonding cement is then placed between the tooth and veneer and a special light beam is used to harden and set the bond.
