Dental Veneers
If you’re seeking a simple and effective way to achieve a flawless smile, dental veneers might be the perfect solution. At Smile and Shine Dental, our Green Brook NJ dentist offers expert veneer services to help you enhance the color, shape, and size of your teeth for a radiant, natural-looking smile.
What Are Dental Veneers?
Dental veneers are thin, custom-made shells crafted from tooth-colored materials designed to cover the front surface of your teeth. Veneers are an excellent choice for improving the appearance of teeth that are stained, worn down, chipped, misaligned, or have gaps between them.
Types of Dental Veneers
There are two primary types of veneers, each with unique benefits:
- Porcelain Veneers: These are durable, stain-resistant, and mimic the light-reflecting properties of natural teeth, making them an ideal choice for a long-lasting, natural appearance.
- Composite Resin Veneers: Applied directly to the teeth, these veneers are a more affordable option. While they may have a shorter lifespan compared to porcelain, they can still provide a significant cosmetic improvement.
During your consultation with Dr. SIngh, our Green Brook NJ dentist will help you choose the type of veneer that best suits your needs and goals.
When to Consider Veneers
You may want to consider dental veneers if:
- Your teeth are stained or discolored and resistant to whitening treatments.
- You have chipped or broken teeth that affect your confidence.
- There are noticeable gaps or spaces between your teeth.
- Your teeth are uneven, misshapen, or slightly misaligned.
The Veneer Process
Typically, getting porcelain veneers requires two visits to our practice:
1. First Visit:
- Preparation: A small portion of your tooth enamel is trimmed to make room for the veneer. Impression: A detailed impression of your tooth is taken and sent to a laboratory for veneer fabrication.
- Temporary Veneer: If necessary, a temporary veneer may be placed to protect your tooth while your custom veneer is being made.
2. Second Visit:
- Fitting: The temporary veneer is removed, and your new veneer is checked for fit, color, and comfort.
- Bonding: Once you and our Green Brook NJ dentist are satisfied, the veneer is permanently bonded to your tooth for a seamless and beautiful finish.
