Understanding Dental Veneers

Celebrity Smiles in Butler, PA | Dental Veneers | Cosmetic DentistryMany people know veneers as a cosmetic procedure, but dental veneers are more involved than that. They’re customized coverings made of either composite resin or porcelain. We bond these shells to the front-facing surface of your teeth, effectively changing their size, shape, color, or even length. However, veneers involve more than just giving your teeth a new look. Rather than working like a fresh coat of paint that changes the look of your house, veneers are more like a thorough renovation. They require us to remove some tooth enamel from your teeth to allow the veneer to sit flush, meaning this is a non-reversible procedure.

When considering a cosmetic dental procedure, you have other options, like professional tooth whitening. But options like this can fade over time, and the results may not be exactly what you hoped for. Veneers are the most efficient, dramatic, and long-lasting option, which can be planned at your consultation with our smile simulation software. With veneers from Brockley Dental Center, you can refresh and reshape your teeth and experience the kind of confidence celebrities have when flashing their dazzling smiles.

What Can Celebrity Smiles Do For You?

There are several reasons to consider getting veneers—they’re more than simply a smile upgrade.

  1. Hide imperfections: Veneers can cover all types of imperfections, from staining and discoloration to minor chips, gaps, and misalignments.
  2. Boost self-confidence: A smile is a powerful tool in many social settings. Being able to flash celebrity smiles can boost your self-esteem and make a great first impression. And with the rise of pictures posted on social media, you’ll never have to worry about how your smile looks again.
  3. Easy maintenance: Veneers don’t require specialized aftercare, unlike some dental treatments. A normal brushing and flossing routine and regular dental check-ups will keep them in great shape.

The Process of Getting Veneers

Veneers are usually completed in four visits to Brockley Dental Center. We’ll start with a consultation, where Dr. Brockley or Dr. Gildersleeve can examine your oral health and answer any questions. Together, you can plan how you want your veneers to look. When it’s time to begin, we’ll apply a local anesthetic and gently remove some tooth enamel. Then, we’ll take an impression of your teeth to create a mold that will be used to create your custom veneers.

While you wait, you’ll get temporary veneers to take for a test drive. Once your final set is ready, we’ll remove the temporary teeth and carefully cement your new veneers into their final position. Your celebrity smile is now complete! Your final visit is to check that everything is aligned properly and your new veneers are functioning the way they should.

Donald B. Brockley, DMD

Dr. Brockley earned his doctorate degree in Dental Medicine from the University of Pittsburgh, School of Dental Medicine in 1972. He is a second generation dentist and a legacy of the University of Pittsburgh, School of Dental Medicine where his father, Dr. Charles R. Brockley earned his doctorate in general dentistry in the year 1927. While attending the University of Pittsburgh, School of Dental Medicine, he held the office of Class Secretary for his graduating class. Following dental school, he chose to do his residency training at Wilmington Medical Center in Wilmington, Delaware, with a focus on research. Upon completing his residency, Dr. Brockley enlisted in the Navy during the Vietnam War Era as a Naval Officer. Dr. Brockley opened his own private practice 1975 in Butler, PA a historic town just 34 miles north of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Dr. Brockley held the office of President of the Butler County Dental Society. After many years of practice, Dr. Brockley realized that fear is the #1 reason why people do not visit their dentist regularly. Therefore, he made it his mission to find an alternative way to practice (and to help his patients overcome this fear). This alternative was through Sedation Dentistry. In 1996 he became trained in Conscious Oral Sedation. This technique allowed him to treat fearful patients by gently putting them to sleep with the aid of a pill, not needle IV sedation which was the popular treatment at that time. Dr. Brockley received his dental training at the following institutions: University of Pittsburgh, School of Dental Medicine, Pittsburgh, PA Tufts University, School of Dental Medicine, Boston, MA University of North Carolina, School of Dentistry, Raleigh, NC Mini Dental Implant Training Centre, Buffalo, NY. Due to the high number of patients who are diabetic in his practice, his next goal was to understand the impact of Diabetes in Dentistry. Due to the subset of Diabetic patients in his practice who had similar recurring oral and systemic health problems, special attention became warranted. This led to a different standard of care and treatment for patients whose health was compromised by diabetes. Early detection, observation, evaluation and treatment to eradicate infection plays a major role in maintaining oral health for diabetic patients. Poorly managed treatment for diabetic patients has been shown to lead to a higher risk of uncontrolled gum disease and vice versa, making prevention of gum disease the #1 priority for this subset of patients. Dr. Brockley’s research on dentistry for diabetics led him to his next specialization: the treatment and eradication of gum disease. His aim has been to change the the treatment of gum disease, also known as periodontal disease. For this reason, he designed a radically different protocol to the Soft Tissue Management (STM) program. STM treats the symptoms of gum disease, and more importantly, the underlying cause of gum disease, bacteria. Studies have shown that gum disease affects 80% of American adults. However, Dr. Brockley has observed that more than 90% of his baby boomer patients have gum disease. His unique STM protocol has shown significant success within his patient population. With patient knowledge, understanding, and cooperation, Dr. Brockley is able to arrest and manage gum disease in his practice. After perfecting his procedures for crowns, bridges, partials and dentures to replace missing teeth, the introduction of Small Diameter Implants (also known as SDI or Mini Dental Implants) into his practice has revolutionized the way Dr. Brockley practices cosmetic dentistry. Small Diameter Implants provide the possibility of full mouth restoration, multiple teeth restoration, or single tooth restoration. Small Diameter Implants can be implemented in all types of tooth and bone conditions, in all ages, and in all types of health conditions. Dr. Brockley uses Small Diameter Implants to restore chewing ability and create beautiful smiles, which ultimately changes peoples’ lives. Dr. Brockley is the proud owner and operator of the first Mini Dental Implant Center of America in the Greater Pittsburgh area. Dr. Brockley has achieved Diplomate status in the International Academy of Mini Dental Implants. He is the President Emeritus of the Butler County Dental Society. Dr. Brockley was also a Lieutenant in the U.S. Navy Dental Corps. He is a a lifetime member of the Delta Sigma Dental Fraternity, and he was the Class Secretary for the University of Pittsburgh Dental School. Dr. Brockley likes to spend time with his family at home or while traveling, has been an avid scuba diver since 1980, and describes himself as a “just okay” golfer.
