Do you have multiple cosmetic issues with the appearance of your smile? What if there was a single treatment option that could address these at once? With veneers, we could offer a smile makeover. In today’s blog, your Leawood, KS, dentist talks about correcting smile imperfections with veneers.
The Cosmetic Imperfections We Address
Each veneer is placed onto the front facing side of a tooth, allowing us to instantly change the color and shape of the tooth. Which means we can take on multiple cosmetic issues at once. For example, we can mask the permanent teeth stains that could resist teeth whitening. Our team could also address misshapen teeth, repair minor damage, and close gaps and black triangle spaces between the teeth. We can lengthen worn down teeth too, and correct the appearance of minor misalignment so you have a straighter-looking smile without the need for orthodontics. For some, this is a smile makeover in only two visits.
Designing and Crafting Custom Veneers
How do we create your custom cosmetic restorations? To begin, our team will numb the teeth receiving them so you are comfortable as we remove thin layers of enamel to make room for the veneers. Next, we will take detailed digital images and measurements of the teeth from multiple angles, using them in a lab setting to design and craft your restorations. The porcelain we use is translucent like tooth enamel and can be color-matched to blend with your smile. The material can also absorb daily bite forces and pressures too! With proper care and attention, your new restorations can stay in place, and remain bright, for years to come.
Securing Your Cosmetic Restorations
When your custom restorations are ready, you will return to the office so we can check the fit and if needed, make some final adjustments. We then attach your new restorations with a powerful bonding gent. To keep them bright and safeguard the rest of your smile, be sure you brush twice daily for two minutes using a fluoride toothpaste. You also need to floss every evening and avoid tobacco products. Be sure you see our team for a checkup and cleaning every six months too. These actions help fight issues that could threaten your newly restored teeth, such as infection or gum disease.
