If you’re looking to conceal a variety of dental imperfections, dental veneers might be a good option for you. Whether your teeth are misshapen, oddly-sized, or slightly discolored, thin and discrete dental veneers can treat a wide array of cosmetic issues. At our Fairhope, AL dental office, Dr. Avery and his team can install dental veneers to help perfect your smile.

What are dental veneers?

These thin shells are designed to mimic the color of your natural teeth. Depending on your exact cosmetic concerns, you may only desire one veneer or you may need 6 or more to create a complete, symmetrical smile. Most commonly, veneers are applied to the front top teeth, as they are the most visible in your everyday life. Made of porcelain or a resin-composite material, veneers are designed to be adhered semipermanently to your teeth.

The Benefits of Dental Veneers

When you choose dental veneers, your smile will automatically become brighter and more uplifted. Here are some other common benefits of selecting dental veneers to treat cosmetic imperfections with your teeth:

• Quick treatment: In one fell swoop, dental veneers can resolve issues that would otherwise require a complex treatment course. From smaller-than-average teeth to severe discoloration, dental veneers can conceal imperfections large and small.
• Long-lasting: Your dental veneers will become semi permanently attached to your teeth. Veneers can last for over a decade, making them a long-term investment that will brighten your smile for years to come.
• Increased self-confidence: One of the main reasons people select dental veneers in the first place is to give their self-esteem a major boost. In social situations, feeling confident about your teeth means you’re more likely to smile, exude positive energy, and appear more approachable. The psychological benefits behind this are also immense.

With the clear benefits dental veneers provide for you, it’s no wonder they are so popular. Veneers can help you achieve the perfect, beaming smile you’ve always dreamed of. Learn more about veneers and if they can help you by scheduling an appointment with your dental professional.

Are veneers right for you?

Before receiving your veneers, you’ll undergo an initial consultation with Dr. Avery to discuss your smile goals and treatment options. At this stage, he will also examine your teeth and gums to determine if any additional dental or orthodontic intervention is necessary before proceeding with the veneer installation. As a part of this assessment, you will have x-rays taken of your teeth to ensure you are healthy and don’t display any signs of tooth decay, gum disease, or any other conditions that may exclude veneers as an option. At your next appointment, an impression will be made of your teeth.

The Application Process

From the impression of your teeth, your veneers will be created. You can then schedule a placement appointment, where your dentist will ensure the veneers are perfectly fitted to your teeth. After thoroughly cleaning the application site(s), your dentist will adhere the veneers to your teeth using a dental cement, which is quickly bonded to the teeth using an ultraviolet light. You will then be ready to enjoy your new smile!
