What are dental veneers? Do you need them? Read on to know more.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dental veneers are also known as porcelain veneers and dental porcelain shells which are thin, specially made tooth-colored covers that are designed to cover your teeth and improve their appearance.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

These thin dental veneers are then bonded to your teeth to alter their shape, color, size and length for the better. Dental veneers are one of the most popular and trusted dental procedures in cosmetic dentistry due to their natural look, flexible use and toughness that is similar to your natural tooth enamel.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here are the 2 different types of veneers:<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Composite Resin Veneers<\/b><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Composite resin veneers are usually bonded with your teeth in a single appointment. Your dentist can bond and reshape the tooth colored composite material to suit your teeth. Composite resin veneers can endure for about 4-8 years but require regular maintenance as they can get chipped from time to time.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Porcelain Veneers<\/b><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Porcelain veneers can last anywhere between 12-25 years and require little to no maintenance. Your dentist simply takes an impression of your teeth and sends it in to his lab to have them make a copy of the shape of your teeth for your veneers.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why Porcelain Veneers are Needed and Are You Eligible for Them?<\/b><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Porcelain dental veneers are used to correct any dental issues that you may be suffering from such as improper tooth alignment or spacing, worn down tooth enamel and cracked or chipped teeth in your mouth. Other than aesthetic beauty, porcelain veneers also offer an increased toughness and durability, better smile performance and require little to no removal of your natural tooth structure as compared to crowns.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

So the question still remains \u201cAre you an eligible candidate?\u201c<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Any treatment for tooth preparation is permanent so it is best that you consult your dentist about whether veneers are suitable for you after which your dentist will evaluate your oral health and advise you on your eligibility in this cosmetic dentistry procedure. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Procedure to Undergo When Getting Dental Veneers<\/b><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Your dentist will administer an anesthetic to make you more comfortable while preparing your tooth after which it will be reshaped with a bur.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

After which your dentist will make an impression of your teeth from which he will have a mold of your mouth made by a dental laboratory. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This will be followed by cleaning up your tooth to allow for a strong bonding process after which a special cement is applied to the veneer before placing it on your teeth. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once your dentist has placed your veneer properly, he\/she will shine a special light on it to activate the chemicals in the cement making it harden very fast. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

6 Benefits of Getting Porcelain Veneers<\/b><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Veneers give a natural tooth appearance<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Gum tissue works well with porcelain<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Porcelain veneers are stain-proof<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. You can choose the color of your own veneers<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n
  5. Porcelain veneers offer a conservative approach to changing your tooth\u2019s color and shape.<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n
  6. Your natural teeth mostly remain intact with only minimal alteration being required<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n
  7. You can easily fix minor dental problems such as overlaps, twists and gaps with veneers<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    How Long Do Dental Veneers Last and How Can You Maintain Them?<\/b><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Dental veneers generally last in the range of 7-15 years after which you should have your veneers replaced. Maintaining your veneers is pretty easy if you treat them just like your natural teeth with a regular brushing and flossing routine. But it is usually suggested that you should use non-abrasive toothpaste. If you happen to struggle with the grinding and clenching of your teeth then your dentist can fit your mouth with a gum guard so that your veneers don\u2019t get damaged.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Make sure that you visit your dentist a couple of weeks after you have your veneers put in so he can monitor how your mouth is accepting the veneers.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n
