Dental Veneers

As more people become interested in improving the appearance of their smile, there is a greater need to select a solution that not only gives benefits but also lasts a long time before needing to be replaced. Primera Dental provides dental veneers to match your individual needs and goals, giving you a completely new smile.

What Are Dental Veneers?

Dental veneers are little, tooth-colored shells that are bonded to the front of your teeth for a quick smile makeover. They are typically made of porcelain, but they can also be made of a resin composite material.

The Benefits of Dental Veneers

• When opposed to dental crowns, veneers require very minimal tooth contouring.
• Veneers are very customizable in terms of shape, size, and color. You receive exactly what you ask for!
• Porcelain Veneers are stain-free and require only daily brushing and flossing.
• Porcelain Veneers have a long lifespan, lasting between 10 and 15 years.
• It can be applied to individuals of any age group.

Procedure for Dental Veneer

• Your teeth are cleaned so that only your natural tooth is visible. Surface repairs from the past are being eliminated.
• In some circumstances, the tooth is etched for the veneers to attach.
• An impression of the tooth area where the veneers will be placed is taken and sent to the lab for manufacturing.
• When the veneers are finished, your dentist will inspect them for fit and appearance before permanently bonding them to your teeth.
• After the veneer has been installed, it is sculpted and polished to resemble a genuine tooth.

How to Maintain Your Dental Veneers?

To ensure that your veneers stay as long as possible, follow these steps:

• Chewing on hard objects such as pens, ice, hard confectionery, or fingernails should be avoided.
• Never open food packaging with your teeth.
• If you grind your teeth at night, eat harder foods with your back teeth exclusively, use a nightguard
• if you play sports, and wear a mouthguard to protect your teeth.

Furthermore, it is critical to brush and floss your teeth regularly to maintain your teeth and mouth healthy, as cavities can still form under and around your veneers.

Veneers are a cosmetic treatment and are typically not covered by dental insurance or Medi-Cal. Primera Dental offers Cherry financing so you can spread the cost of your new smile over manageable monthly payments.
