If you are embarrassed by stained, chipped, or gapped teeth, you don’t have to spend another summer hiding your smile. Porcelain veneers can transform your teeth after just two appointments. You won’t need a complex procedure or lengthy treatment to reach your goals. Here’s how your cosmetic dentist can give you a beach-ready smile before your summer plans.
Fix Several Flaws Simultaneously
A veneer is a thin shell that’s applied to the front surface of a tooth to improve its shape, color, and size. When bonded to the teeth most visible when smiling, they can hide multiple aesthetic issues at once.
Although every case differs, veneers can be used to correct:
- Stains and discoloration
- Chips and cracks
- Small teeth
- Gaps between teeth
You won’t have to spend months wearing braces to close a space between your front teeth or need various procedures to address all your concerns. You can have a flawless smile in just a couple of weeks.
Minimally Invasive Process
If you have a big event or trip coming up, you can look your best. After examining your mouth, your cosmetic dentist will create a personalized strategy to revamp your smile using a minimally invasive method.
Your teeth are cleaned before a small amount of enamel is removed to ensure a strong bond with the veneer. Porcelain allows veneers to be thinner than ever, so less of your enamel is etched. This preserves your natural smile while making the treatment less invasive.
After your teeth are prepped, impressions of your mouth are used to design your veneers. Your teeth will be covered by temporary veneers while the dental lab crafts your final restorations to meet your specifications. In a week or two, you’ll return to your dentist to have them bonded in place.
Your new smile will look completely natural. It may take a few days to adjust to the veneers, but in no time at all, you will forget they are even there. You will spend more time focusing on enjoying the summer without worrying about your teeth.
Long-Lasting Solution
Your picture-perfect smile will thrive long after the season. Veneers are proven to last for 10 years or longer with the right maintenance to always feel your best. You can get the most out of your investment with a solid home oral hygiene routine and regular care from your dentist. Avoid anything that may damage your veneers, like using your teeth to open packages or chewing on your fingernails.
Whether you’re taking a vacation or tanning at the beach, an unattractive smile won’t hold you back anymore from living life to the fullest. Schedule your consultation for veneers to get your smile ready for summer.
