How Veneers Can Give You a Smile Makeover

Since your smile is one of the first things people tend to notice about you, isn’t it worth perfecting? Most people aren’t born with a movie-star grin. Cosmetic dentistry procedures like veneers help you make the most dazzling impression possible.

Dr. Nils H. Anderson and his team at Village Dental in Richmond Hill, Georgia, offer veneers that can significantly transform your smile. This popular cosmetic dentistry option can improve your self-esteem and straighten your teeth for the smile of your dreams.

How could veneers benefit the appearance of your grin? Here’s what you need to know about the benefits of long-lasting porcelain dental veneers.

How veneers work

The custom-made porcelain shells of your veneers look similar to your natural dental enamel. Dr. Anderson controls the shape and shade for a natural-looking outcome that improves your smile, making it dazzling.

Dr. Anderson applies your veneers to the front surfaces of one or more of your teeth. Your veneers are individually sculpted for the best aesthetic results. They cover the most visible parts of your teeth, creating a total makeover.

It typically takes a few office visits to cement your permanent veneers in place. Dr. Anderson starts by reducing the volume of teeth you want to receive veneers in order to create space and blend them in with your other teeth. Temporary veneers protect your teeth until your permanent veneers can be cemented in place.

You care for your veneers just like you would your natural teeth, brushing and flossing, and keeping your bi-annual dental cleaning appointments as scheduled.

Benefits of veneers

You can use veneers to cover stained or discolored teeth or to blend the overall shade of your smile. Veneers can also improve your dental shape, correcting misshapen teeth or teeth that look too small.

At our practice, we create your veneers based on an impression of your tooth or teeth. Because your veneers are sculpted from a mold or model of your teeth, your results look and feel perfect for your unique mouth and won’t look unnatural. Veneers are a very successful cosmetic dentistry procedure, and most patients are satisfied with the results.

In addition to being beautiful, porcelain veneers are also durable and long-lasting. With proper care, veneers can last 20 years or even longer. Veneers help with chipped or broken teeth, worn-tooth edges, and gaps between teeth that can potentially lead to dental health issues if left unaddressed.
