What Are Dental Veneers?
Dental veneers are thin shells, usually made from resilient ceramic, that are made to match or improve the natural size, shape, and tone of your teeth. Then, they’re cemented to the fronts of your enamel to mask one or more aesthetic concerns, including:
- Chips
- Cracks
- Stubborn stains or blemishes
- Slight gaps between teeth
- Mild overcrowding
Once they’re placed, these restorations typically aren’t intended to be removed, and they can last 15+ years with proper care.
The Process of Getting Veneers
You must schedule a consultation with Dr. Pevzner so that our team can discuss your concerns and goals and examine your dental condition to ensure you’re a good candidate. Once we determine that your teeth and gums are healthy enough, we will proceed with preparing your teeth for veneers.
This involves numbing your mouth and/or providing sedation to help you feel comfortable, then removing a small amount of enamel from the underlying teeth so the restorations fit correctly without causing misalignments. Then, we’ll make digital impressions of your smile that will be sent to a special laboratory that uses them to design your customized veneers.
It can take a couple of weeks for them to arrive, so our team may recommend placing a temporary set to prevent potential damage while you wait. Once your veneers are delivered, we’ll schedule a final fitting to determine that they fit and function correctly before cementing them in place and sending you home with a beautifully restored smile.
The Benefits of Veneers
This cosmetic service continues to gain popularity as more patients learn about its many advantages, such as:
- Boosts your confidence. These restorations are carefully customized just for you, helping you look and feel like the most attractive and self-assured version of yourself.
- Protects your oral health. Caring for veneers requires twice-daily brushing and flossing, avoiding sticky or hard foods, and visiting our team for a checkup and cleaning every 6 months, all of which help improve your dental condition and prevent potential problems.
- Versatile treatment option. Pevzner can place the covers to mask one or multiple aesthetic concerns to enhance your appearance.
- Made with resilient materials. These shells resist chips and cracks, and are coated with a glaze strong enough to help shield the underlying teeth from potential damage.
- Delivers long-lasting results. Veneers can last decades when cared for correctly, making them an excellent long-term investment.
Understanding the Cost of Veneers
Most dental insurance policies don’t cover the cost of cosmetic treatments intended to improve your looks more than your dental health, such as veneers. As a result, some patients worry that they may not be able to afford the desired upgrades to their grin.
But our team believes everyone deserves to feel confident about their smile, regardless of their current financial situation. If you’re uninsured or your policy doesn’t include this service, you can apply for flexible payments through CareCreidt. If your paperwork is approved, you can select a low- to no-interest plan that allows you to divide the total cost of your treatment into more manageable installments over a designated period.
