If you’re unhappy with the color, shape, or positioning of your teeth, a great cosmetic solution is dental veneers. These are thin, composite or porcelain layers made to fit over the front surface of teeth. At the dental office of Fallbrook Family Dentistry in Lincoln, NE, they recommend veneers to patients who are seeking a simple way to improve teeth that have become chipped, discolored, or have slight imperfections that the person wishes to correct.

Here are some common questions the cosmetic dentistry team at Fallbrook Family Dentistry is frequently asked regarding veneers:

  • veneersWhat Is the Application Process Like? Before veneers can be applied, your dentist will need to shape and prepare the surface of your teeth. In some cases, this may require removing a very small amount of tooth enamel in order to roughen the area so that the veneers will bond effectively. Next, a mold will be made of your teeth and sent to a dental laboratory, where your permanent veneers will be created. In the meantime, your dentist will provide you with a set of temporary veneers.
  • What Are the Benefits of Veneers? Not only do veneers help to correct discoloration and chips on the teeth, but they also protect them from future damage that might require more serious treatments. They are also able to improve your smile without removing too much of the natural tooth, as is the case when dental crowns are necessary.
  • What Type of Maintenance Is Required for Veneers? You should care for your veneers in the same manner you would normally take care of your teeth. Continue to practice good oral hygiene, such as brushing twice a day, flossing, and scheduling regular dental cleanings and checkups. Doing so will ensure your veneers are capable of lasting for decades.
