If you\u2019re frustrated by flaws in your smile, you\u2019re not alone. Fortunately, your dentist can provide porcelain veneers<\/a> to address several different imperfections simultaneously. These thin, ceramic shells are bonded to the front surface of your teeth to mask chips, cracks, stains, minor gaps, and slight overcrowding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Getting veneers can be an investment in time and resources, though, so it\u2019s important to understand what\u2019s involved before moving forward. If you want to know more, keep reading to learn about 4 steps in the process or having them placed!<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Step #1: Consultation Appointment<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

You\u2019ll need to meet with your dentist before proceeding with any elective treatment to discuss your dental goals and medical history. Then, your provider will examine your mouth to ensure there are no issues that would interfere with your veneers, like tooth decay or gum disease. If there are issues, they\u2019ll work with you to address those, first. Then, once they verify whether you\u2019re a viable candidate for this treatment, they\u2019ll continue to the next step.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step #2: Preparation & Impressions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

To line these shells up appropriately with your natural teeth along your gums, your dentist needs to remove a thin layer of enamel. This protective outer layer doesn\u2019t grow back meaning that this change is considered irreversible. This impacts the structure of your tooth so you\u2019ll need to have a veneer (or some other restoration) in place to shield it from potential future damage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once that\u2019s completed, your dentist will take impressions of your pearly whites. Whether they use a manual mold or have virtual imaging available, they\u2019ll gather the information needed to create your customized veneers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step #3: Creating Your Veneers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Your dentist will send the data they\u2019ve gathered to a lab to create your new permanent veneers. Because your teeth are in a vulnerable state, they\u2019ll provide you with a temporary set to wear in the meantime for protection. After a few weeks, the covers will be delivered to your dentist and you\u2019ll be scheduled for a fitting. They\u2019ll check to ensure that the color is matched correctly and that everything fits how it should. If there are any adjustments to be made, they\u2019ll note the corrections and return your veneers to the lab to be finalized.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step #4: Placing Your Veneers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Once adjustments have been completed, your dentist can place your permanent veneers. They will clean your teeth and etch the front surface so that a stronger bond can form with the adhesive. They\u2019ll place a special cement on your pearly whites and position the shells over it. This is hardened in place with a curing light and any excess will be removed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When it\u2019s all said and done, you\u2019ll finally have the perfect smile you\u2019ve always dreamed of!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
