What Are Veneers?

Before and after veneers

Veneers are thin shells crafted from a tooth-colored ceramic material, and they are designed to be cemented over troubled teeth to conceal defects like chips, cracks, gaps, stains, and misshapenness while giving your smile an ideal appearance. These devices are durable, stain resistant, and can last for fifteen years or more before needing replacement if they receive excellent care.

The Process of Getting Veneers

The process of getting veneers begins with a consultation at our Glastonbury office, during which our dentist will carefully examine your mouth to make sure that you can be a suitable candidate for the treatment. If you’re not ready yet, you may be able to become one later after receiving restorative work to clear up tooth decay and gum disease. After you are approved for the treatment, our dentist will begin the process by administering a local anesthetic to ensure your comfort before removing a small amount of enamel from the treated teeth. Our dentist will then take bite impressions and place temporary veneers on your teeth so you can get used to wearing them.

At a trusted dental lab, a skilled technician will carefully craft your veneers based on precise measurements of your teeth. When they are ready, you’ll come back to our office so we can remove your temporary set, cement the permanent veneers in place, and make any final adjustments. You’ll then be ready to show off your new smile to the world.

The Benefits of Veneers

Veneers are made from beautiful and stain-resistant porcelain that can maintain its lifelike appearance for fifteen years or more if the appliances receive excellent care and hygiene. This versatile cosmetic treatment can address many dental flaws at once, and each veneer is completely customized to ensure that they match the natural color and curvature of your teeth. This makes them an excellent and efficient way to enhance the beauty of your smile.

Understanding the Cost of Veneers
