Porcelain Veneers

What Are Dental Veneers?

Porcelain Dental Veneers were recognized as a dramatic breakthrough in Cosmetic Dentistry. Porcelain Veneers are bonded to the tooth’s surface and are often paper-thin layers that help fix the appearance and gaps between teeth. Porcelain Veneers will help change the shape and coloration of your teeth and still look natural, improving your oral health.

In some cases, Dental Veneers require some of the natural teeth to be removed for the placement of a porcelain veneer. The most current versions are more translucent, blending effortlessly with natural teeth. With porcelain veneers, you will never have to use whitening solutions again. 

Professional Pointers On Cosmetic Dentistry

After your initial consultation at one of our dental clinics, we can help you decide if getting veneers is the right treatment for you. One of the more important considerations is not about the actual procedure, but whether the treatment is suitable for the smile you desire. Every individual is unique and so are their teeth, which is why it is of importance to first know what type of final result you are expecting. Dental veneers do not require any form of tooth removal, or tooth extraction.

Once you are clear on what you want, you must be able to choose a procedure that is the most conservative to achieve desirable results. Artistic talent, training and experience is vital. The professionals at Chagger Dental possess talents associated with porcelain veneers, bonding, dentistry that is minimally invasive, art and cosmetic dentistry combined to offer you the very best smile possible.

What Are Porcelain Veneers?

Porcelain veneers are a type of restorative dentistry, typically fabricated from a semi-translucent, thin porcelain “shell”, which are custom-made so that they fit over the existing tooth precisely. These veneers are bonded permanently and held in their place with a specialized resin that secures the back part of a veneer over the front part of a tooth. The end result is durable and extremely strong. Even though veneers might not be a suitable choice for every individual or patient, they are still one of the dental procedures that is used for various dental conditions that affect the teeth in the front of the mouth. Veneers will not require any oral surgery, however your tooth surface may need to be drilled down for the veneers to sit on the top of the tooth properly. Patients will undergo some local anesthetics to relax them during the dental treatment.

Some of the uses of porcelain veneers include the following:

  • Close spaces in gapped teeth
  • Cover stained, washed-out or unsightly fillings
  • Restore chipped or broken teeth
  • Correct crooked teeth and damaged teeth
  • Provide brighter smiles

What Are the Advantages of Veneers?

When your smile has become disfigured due to chipping, breakage, abrasions, imperfect development or decay, we strive to restore your teeth to their natural beauty, offering smile makeovers for you to gain confidence. Years ago, the tooth coloured dental crowns or dental bonding was the popular alternative for these condition types. The tooth coloured bonding is weak and doesn’t last, while porcelain crowns require grinding down a lot of the natural tooth-structure. Today, a third alternative that is much more conservative is available, known as porcelain veneers.

There are various pros and cons to having these veneers secured to the front teeth. These can include some of these considerations:

  • Only a small amount of your tooth structure is removed in the procedure. In some cases the natural tooth is left intact.
  • The end result is a natural and healthy mouth with no or very little discomfort.
  • Generally, veneers cost less than the alternative procedures.
  • Veneers are color-stable, durable and strong.
  • Veneer placement can be completed quickly.

Who Can Use Dental Veneers?

Dental veneers are regarded as one of the more aesthetically-pleasing cosmetic procedures for improving smiles. These veneers are custom-made, ultra-thin laminates which are bonded permanently to front of the teeth. They have also increased in popularity as an option to alter the position, color, shape and size of teeth. However, patients with gum disease, mouth sores, enamel erosion or a root canal infection may not qualify for veneers. It is very important you have great oral hygiene prior to a veneer procedure.

The porcelain veneers are also useful for straightening teeth, closing gaps from missing teeth, replacing edges that have become worn, and to resurface teeth that are discolored usually orange, black or brown that for a number of different reasons did not whiten enough through a tooth whitening procedure. The best types of candidates for veneers are the people that have healthy teeth that is free from periodontal disease and decay. Yet, tooth decay or cavities are often repaired during the preparation for dental veneers.

If your teeth in the front are crooked, chipped or have gaps which extends beyond what traditional bonding can repair, porcelain veneers may be your ideal option. Unlike the crowns that cover your entire tooth, the veneers usually only cover the front surface of a tooth, which wraps around slightly over the edge that you bite down on. This is what makes the porcelain veneers a more conservative choice. The type of veneers you could choose from include porcelain, which are also known as laminates or the composite veneers made from a resin or plastic.

How much do dental veneers cost? Discover prices and tips to budget your dental treatment.

Dental veneers are a popular option for improving the appearance of your teeth, but how much do veneers cost? Well, the price can vary greatly depending on the material used and the complexity of the procedure. It is important to remember that dental veneers are not a cheap solution. On average, porcelain veneers cost can between $1,500 to $2,500 per tooth, while composite veneers usually cost around $250 and $1500 per tooth. The total cost will depend on how many teeth you want to treat and what material is chosen.

Although cost may be an important factor in your decision, it is also important to consider durability and the end result. Porcelain veneers typically last longer than composite veneers and offer a more natural look. Before making a decision, it is important to speak with an experienced dentist and ask questions about cost, treatment duration, and how each material compares in terms of durability and aesthetics. It may also be helpful to ask about financing options if cost is a barrier for you.
