What Are Dental Veneers?
Dental veneers are wafer-thin shells made of porcelain or resin that are custom-made to adhere to the surface of your teeth. They are used as a cosmetic solution to correct a variety of dental issues, such as discolored, chipped, misshapen, or crooked teeth.
While veneers can improve the appearance of teeth, they also provide a protective layer for damaged or weakened teeth. Dental veneers can last for around 10 years with proper care, giving you a bright, confident smile.
What Are the Benefits of Dental Veneers?
Dental veneers are a popular cosmetic dentistry procedure that can improve the appearance of your teeth. Some of the benefits of dental veneers include:| • |
Dental veneers can cover imperfections such as chips, cracks, and stains, giving you a brighter, more attractive smile.
|
| • |
Veneers are made of strong, durable materials that can last for many years with proper care.
|
| • |
Unlike crowns, veneers require minimal tooth reduction, meaning more of your natural tooth structure can be preserved.
|
| • |
Veneers are resistant to staining, meaning that you can enjoy your favorite foods and drinks without worrying about discoloration.
|
| • |
Veneers are custom-made to fit your teeth, allowing you to choose the shape, size, and color that best suits your needs. |
Are There Any Drawbacks of Dental Veneers?
While dental veneers offer many benefits, there are also some potential drawbacks to consider:
| • |
Veneers can be expensive, and may not be covered by dental insurance.
|
| • |
The process of placing veneers requires removing a small amount of your natural tooth structure, which is irreversible. Once you have veneers, you will always need to have them replaced or maintained.
|
| • |
Some people may experience sensitivity to hot and cold temperatures after getting veneers. This is usually temporary but can be uncomfortable.
|
| • |
Veneers may not be suitable for people with significant tooth decay, gum disease, or other dental issues. Our dentist can help determine if veneers are a good option for you. |
What to Do After Getting Dental Veneers
The aftercare matters the most. At Kaiser, Rosen & Kurman Dental Associates, we recommend our clients remember the following tips after getting dental veneers. | • |
Brush your teeth twice daily, floss daily, and rinse with an antiseptic mouthwash to keep your veneers and natural teeth clean and healthy.
|
| • |
Veneers are durable but can be damaged by hard or sticky foods. Avoid chewing on ice, hard candy, and other foods that could cause damage.
|
| • |
If you play sports or grind your teeth at night, wear a mouthguard to protect your veneers and natural teeth from damage. |
