The Porcelain Veneers Process

Made of wafer-thin pieces of porcelain, veneers cover your teeth to create a smile that is the ideal size, shape, and color for the line of your lips and your gums. They are permanently bonded to your teeth after a small amount of your tooth enamel is removed so they blend in perfectly without a thick artificial look.

Before getting veneers, you will have a consultation with Dr. Hema Srinivasan so she can ensure that your mouth is healthy enough for veneers. Together, you and Dr. Hema will design a smile that features the exact teeth you would like, making sure it will complement your face and complexion. This will ensure that the final result is a smile that looks beautiful and natural.

Your custom veneers will be fabricated in a nearby lab, and when they are ready, you’ll come in again to have them permanently bonded. You will leave with a smile more gorgeous than you ever imagined!

Benefits of Veneers

Patients who decide to enhance their smiles with veneers appreciate the following benefits:

The veneers process is relatively quick and usually takes just a couple of visits to the dentist
Very little of the tooth needs to be prepared to receive the veneers, although it should be noted that veneers are a permanent restoration
Veneers have a translucency very similar to the natural tooth, so no one will know you have them
Veneers are strong, long-lasting, and resistant to chipping
Veneers will not stain like your natural teeth so your smile stays white and bright

Caring for Your Veneers

You can care for your veneers much like you do your natural teeth. Keep up with daily brushing and flossing, taking care not to use toothpaste with any kind of abrasives. Be sure to visit your dentist twice each year for routine exams and cleanings.

If you engage in any bad habits such as nail biting, pencil biting, or ice chewing, now is the time to break them. As strong as veneers are, these behaviors can damage them just as they can your natural teeth.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are porcelain veneers and why are they used?

Porcelain veneers are ultra-thin, translucent shells of ceramic material that are bonded to the front of the teeth to camouflage a variety of dental issues. Many of the perfect smiles you see in Hollywood are a result of porcelain veneer treatment from a cosmetic dentist.

Some of the more common uses of porcelain veneers include:

To whiten your smile when stained teeth are resistant to the bleaching process.
To fix crooked teeth. Veneers are sometimes referred to as “instant orthodontics” because of how they can easily mask crooked or gapped teeth. Rather than undergo orthodontic treatment, which can take months or even years of treatment, veneers can mask crooked teeth and make your smile perfectly straight and even.
To lengthen the look of teeth that are too short.
To replace damaged tooth enamel. The enamel on your teeth is strong, but it is not indestructible. Sometimes it becomes worn due to brushing too aggressively or eaten away from highly acidic foods and beverages. Veneers are a great option for teeth that have had enamel erosion or abrasion.

Because some of the tooth surface needs to be removed to make room for the veneers, this is considered a permanent solution. Veneers last about 10 or 15 years with diligent care.
