What Is Cosmetic Dentistry?

Cosmetic dentistry focuses on creating winning smiles by improving a range of teeth imperfections, including stained, discolored, misshapen, worn, misaligned, or otherwise flawed teeth. While many of the procedures offered are elective, cosmetic dentistry provides restorative solutions using materials and techniques that enhance the appearance of your smile. 

What are Dental Veneers?

Veneers are thin shells made of a tooth-colored porcelain material that we custom-create to cover the front surfaces of your teeth. Porcelain veneers provide an aesthetic solution to correct stained, discolored, misshapen, misaligned, or gapped teeth, delivering natural-looking, seamless smiles. 

Dental veneers not only serve as a cosmetic dentistry solution, but they can also enhance your oral health. They are often used to repair chipped, broken, or fractured, improving their strength and function. They are also used to restore teeth worn due to chronic grinding and clenching, a condition known as bruxism. Your new restorations will have you smiling with confidence before you know it!

 What Are the Benefits of Veneers?

There are many benefits to veneers, including the following: 

  • Quick and Painless: The veneer procedure is quick and virtually pain-free, usually completed without the need for a local anesthetic. 
  • Natural-looking results: Veneers are made to look like your natural teeth so no one can tell that they are there.
  • Durable: With proper oral hygiene care and regular visits to the dentist, porcelain veneers can last for many years.
  • Conservative: They require the removal of a minimal amount of tooth structure, making them a conservative solution to enhance the appearance of your smile. 
  • Resistant to staining: Porcelain veneers are stain-resistant, so you can enjoy your white smile for many years.
  • Versatile: Veneers can be used to correct a range of concerns, delivering beautifully natural results.

What Is the Porcelain Veneers Procedure

Dr. Hill will remove an ultra-thin layer of tooth enamel to make room for your restoration. Next, he will take an impression of your teeth, which a dental lab will use as a blueprint for your new veneers. He will place temporary veneers to protect your prepared teeth as you wait. 

During an upcoming appointment, Dr. Hill will evaluate your new veneers to ensure a perfect fit and color match before permanently bonding the veneers to the front surfaces of your teeth. Your new restorations will look just like your natural teeth, and with proper care, they can enhance your smile for many years to come!
