Veneers are thin coverings that are custom-made to conceal imperfections that exist on the front-facing surfaces of teeth. As permanent restorations that require the removal of a small portion of tooth enamel for proper adherence, they can be placed in two visits and last a decade or longer with proper care. Veneers are known to be stain-resistant and durable against daily wear and tear.
Veneer placement begins with a patient meeting with one of our cosmetic dentists for a consultation. If cleared to receive treatment, the first appointment will include a member of our team using a shade guide to determine the desired color for the veneers. Once selected, we will remove a small portion of tooth enamel from each treated tooth, creating a surface that is conducive for the bonding agent that will be used to attach the veneer.
Impressions will then be taken to produce a model of the patient’s teeth so that lab technicians can begin to fabricate the restorations based on the specifications and details provided by our team.
The patient will then receive temporary veneers to wear between appointments, making it possible for the individual to experience life with these custom restorations. After a few weeks, we will have the patient return to our office to have their temporary veneers removed before their permanent ones are put in place.
Enhancing one’s smile with custom veneers has many advantages, such as:
Our cosmetic dentists at Grand Dental – Naperville cannot determine the cost of veneers until a patient comes to see us for a consultation. There are too many factors that must be considered before providing an individual with an estimate for treatment, such as the number of veneers needed, whether preliminary services are required, and the material used to craft custom veneers. Our team will review the proposed estimate with the individual and discuss ways to lower any out-of-pocket costs.
