Having a beautiful, confident smile isn’t just about appearance; it’s about looking and feeling your best every single day. At Colbert Family Dental, we believe everyone deserves to have their ideal smile, and porcelain veneers are a great solution to perfect whatever aesthetic issues concern you.
Our skilled cosmetic dentists, Dr. Mackenzie Colbert and Dr. Hannah Moran, are here to guide you through the transformation process to turn your dream smile into reality.
What Are Veneers and How Can They Help Me?
Veneers are custom-crafted to cover the front surfaces of teeth that show when you smile. They are made of materials like ceramic or porcelain with a natural appearance that blends perfectly with surrounding teeth.
Because they conceal the tooth surface beneath, veneers can hide numerous aesthetic issues that you would prefer not to share with others, including:
- Tooth staining or discoloration that resists whitening
- Worn down, chipped, or broken teeth
- Misaligned or uneven teeth
- Gaps between teeth
- Irregularly shaped teeth
What's Involved with Getting Veneers?
The process for getting veneers begins with an evaluation at our Maple Grove, MN, dental office. Healthy teeth and gums are crucial before getting veneers, so we start with a thorough examination to address any underlying issues.
Once we address your oral health, we collaborate with you to understand your aesthetic goals and determine if veneers are the best path to achieve them. This partnership ensures the results align with your vision and enhance your smile’s natural beauty.
Getting veneers requires several steps and two visits to our Maple Grove dental office:
- Consultation — We discuss your desired outcome and examine your teeth to ensure veneers are an appropriate choice.
- Preparation — Our dentists remove a thin layer of enamel so the veneers fit properly, then take a digital impression of your teeth.
- Customization — We work with a custom lab that crafts the veneers to precisely fit your teeth to create the desired shape and shade.
- Bonding — Once your custom veneers are ready, we carefully check them for size and fit and bond them securely to your teeth.
How Should I Care for My Veneers?
Dental veneers can last ten years or longer, depending on how you care for them and your oral health in general. If you get a cavity or break the veneer, we would need to remove and replace it, so there’s your motivation for keeping your teeth healthy!
Brush at least twice a day with a non-abrasive toothpaste and floss once. Book regular checkups and teeth cleanings at Colbert Family Dental to maintain oral health and allow us to check the veneers’ condition. Avoid chewing on ice, eating hard or crunchy foods, or using your teeth as tools to minimize the risk of breaking or cracking a veneer.
