What Are Porcelain Veneers?
Porcelain veneers are thin, ceramic shells that fit over your teeth to conceal mild to moderate cosmetic issues. The key to their realistic appearance lies in the properties of porcelain, which is similar to natural tooth enamel in texture and translucence. We use porcelain in a custom shade and design to complement the shape, size, texture, and color of natural teeth.
Who Can Benefit From Dental Veneers?
Many people who want to address mild imperfections and improve their smile can benefit from porcelain veneers. Capable of concealing multiple dental flaws at once, veneers allow a more uniform and youthful appearance. Dr. Karale may suggest porcelain veneers to:
- Whiten severely discolored, stained, or dull teeth
- Close uneven spaces or large gaps between teeth
- Correct slightly crooked or uneven teeth
- Restore teeth that are worn, chipped, or misshapen
- Reshape small or large-looking teeth
You're an ideal candidate for dental veneers if you have relatively healthy teeth and gums but would like to transform mild cosmetic flaws. Whatever your needs, our team has the skills to create beautiful, natural-looking results with porcelain veneers.
Our Veneer Placement Process
Receiving dental veneers in Phoenix typically involves multiple steps that can be completed in two to three appointments. The first step in the process is a consultation with Dr. Karale. During this consultation, we'll discuss your needs and treatment goals. We'll conduct a thorough examination, evaluating the health of your teeth, gums, and jaws. From there, we determine whether you're a suitable candidate for veneers. We will work with you to create a custom treatment plan.
Before your veneers are custom-made, we take an impression of your teeth and send it to a lab to create a wax-up, which is a model of your veneers. The wax-up will give you a preview of what your smile will look like after your veneer treatment is complete so we can make any adjustments and ensure you're happy with your results. It takes about one week for the wax-up to be returned from the lab.
Once you're satisfied with the planned veneers, we will prepare your teeth by shaping the enamel and send impressions to the lab that will craft your new veneers. When your veneers are ready, usually after two weeks, you'll come back to our office for the final placement. Dr. Karale will carefully secure your veneers in place, making sure they fit perfectly and look natural. You'll leave with a beautifully restored smile and a rejuvenated appearance.
How Long Do Porcelain Veneers Last?
When made with quality materials and craftsmanship, dental veneers can last ten years or even longer. To help extend the longevity of your veneers, practice good daily oral hygiene and visit the dentist as recommended. If you frequently grind your teeth at night or clench your jaw, we may recommend a night guard to protect the veneers. When the need for veneer replacement arrives, you can rely on us to craft another set so you are always happy with your smile.
