Veneers in Charlotte, NC
Imagine Dentistry
Veneers are thin, tooth-colored shells attached to the front surface of your teeth to improve their appearance. They are either made up of composite resin or porcelain and are permanently bonded to your tooth. Veneers can be used to correct worn dentition, close spaces, and improve the appearance of discolored teeth.
Multiple veneers can help create a symmetrical smile. They are normally made of porcelain and generally do not require much preparation before their placement. Depending on the extent of the preparation and comfort level of the patient, local anesthesia might be required. Veneers can last for many years when proper care is taken. Remember that veneers are mostly used for cosmetic purposes. They do not replace the entire tooth; instead, they cover the visible surface to improve its appearance.
Porcelain veneers require multiple steps. The first step involves a consultation with your dentist. On this visit, they will help you to outline your goals and concerns. They might also ask for an x-ray and impressions of your teeth for proper planning. Next comes the preparation of veneers. We will take your dental impressions to fabricate the veneers in our lab, and in the meantime, we will give you temporary veneers. At your next visit, we will replace the temporary ones with the permanent veneers, and bond them to your teeth.
For veneers made with tooth color filling material or composite resin, the treatment procedure is slightly different. It can be done in one appointment procedure after proper planning.
