Dental Veneers

What Is a Dental Veneer?

Dental veneers are small coverings that are bonded to the surface of your tooth. They are a popular option for people looking to make small cosmetic changes to their smiles, hiding blemishes like chips, cracks, discoloration, or darkening. They may also be used to correct the shape of your tooth and give the line of your teeth greater consistency.

Your custom-made dental veneer is stain-resistant and easy on the gums. It also doesn’t require as much deconstructing of the original tooth as a crown might. Made of sturdy, beautiful porcelain, our dental veneers at Scott R. Adishian, D.D.S. Inc. are long-lasting and blend in seamlessly with your other teeth.

The Veneer Installation Process

To receive your veneer, you’ll come in for two appointments: the preparation appointment, and the installation appointment.

During your first appointment, we’ll prepare your tooth for the veneer by taking an impression of it and filing it down. The impression ensures we create a veneer of the right size and shape.

After taking an impression, we’ll file your tooth down to ensure there is enough room for the veneer to sit on the surface and be flush with the teeth around it. We may also put a protective temporary covering on your teeth so they aren’t damaged in the interim.

During your second appointment, the temporary covering will be removed and your custom-made veneer will be bonded to your tooth. Before placing the veneer, we’ll double check that it matches your other teeth as closely as possible in color, shape, size, and luster.
