If you live in Rochester, Rochester Hills, Oakland Township or a surrounding area in Michigan and you would like to learn more about porcelain veneers, please visit the website of Doolin Haddad Advanced Dentistry, Michigan cosmetic dentists, today.
Porcelain veneers are thin wafers of tooth-like ceramic material applied over the surface of a natural tooth. Porcelain mimics tooth structure better than any other restorative material. Porcelain veneers can be implemented to cover worn tooth enamel, correct uneven tooth alignment or spacing and cover chips or cracks. They create a bright smile with beautifully aligned and shaped teeth. Today’s veneers provide a more natural look than those available in the past. Veneers can solve a myriad of cosmetic dental issues including:
- Worn enamel
- Wear and tear
- Genetic anomalies
- Uneven teeth
Porcelain dental veneers offer a beautiful remedy for these problems. Placing porcelain veneers requires little or no anesthesia. A porcelain veneer procedure usually involves three steps:
- Diagnosis and treatment planning
- Preparation
- Bonding
In diagnosis and treatment planning, the dentist will discuss your goals and what you hope to achieve, examine your teeth and devise a treatment plan customized for you. Preparation involves preparing your natural teeth to accept the veneers. A mold is made and sent to the laboratory where your custom veneers are produced. During the bonding appointment the final adjustments are made to the porcelain veneers and they are permanently placed.
Placing porcelain veneers requires expertise and artistry. A talented, highly trained cosmetic dentist possesses the skill and artistry for placement of porcelain veneers. It usually takes three visits to obtain the desired results. Porcelain veneers are custom fitted and made for your teeth, so you can improve more than just the color of your teeth. Chipped and crooked teeth also benefit from porcelain veneers.
Porcelain veneers are resistant to stains from coffee, tea or cigarettes. Veneers may last anywhere from ten to fifty years. Porcelain veneers are brushed, flossed, and treated just as you would your natural teeth. Properly placed and fitted, you should not even be aware they are there, except for your perfect smile.
