Around 76% of Americans admit that they base their first impressions of people on their smiles. If your smile is one of the very first things people notice, you may want to consider what it says about you! Even the smallest imperfections can feel like glaring errors in the mirror, often resulting in feelings of embarrassment or shame. While you should never be ashamed of your smile, we understand that it’s often linked to how you feel about yourself. Fortunately, Brockley Dental Center has a solution! Using dental veneers, you can upgrade your smile to your ideal look. These perfectly customizable shells hide flaws, attaching to the front of your teeth like a press-on nail. Visit Brockley Dental Center to enhance the appearance of your smile with dental veneer treatment in nearby Cranberry, PA!
What Veneers Can Do for You!
A veneer smile upgrade involves covering the imperfections of your teeth with custom-made sheets of porcelain or ceramic. Using veneers, you can design every aspect of your smile to your exact preference.
Common issues that patients like you use veneers to fix are:
- Chips and cracks: Dental trauma involves an injury to the teeth or gums and ranges in severity. Smaller traumas, such as chips and cracks in your teeth, can be resolved with veneer treatment! We use dental veneers to cover up cracks in your smile and conceal any chips in your teeth.
- Minor misalignments: Some people are born with naturally perfect teeth, but most are not so lucky. If your smile has small gaps between teeth or minor misalignments, we may be able to use dental veneers to fix them! These thin sheets of porcelain or ceramic cover the misalignments of your smile, giving your teeth a uniform and perfect look.
- Misshapen teeth: With veneers, we fix teeth that are smaller, larger, or shaped differently than their surrounding teeth. With custom-designed veneers, you decide the shape and size of each individual tooth in your smile.
- Discoloration: No matter how much you brush your teeth, some stains are too stubborn to lift. Fortunately, veneers hide stains and discoloration, providing a bright white smile for you to enjoy!
If you find yourself wanting to change any of these imperfections in your own smile, visit Brockley Dental Center in nearby Cranberry! Using these thin, customizable sheets of porcelain or ceramic, we can address the issues you have with your teeth and provide you with the perfect veneer smile.
Understanding the Veneer Smile Process
The veneer process is simple.
We start with a diagnostic appointment. During this appointment, we’ll perform a thorough dental exam to assess whether your smile is eligible for veneers! Because this cosmetic procedure only addresses the surface of your smile, any underlying issues, such as gum disease, must be treated before the veneers process can begin.
Once we determine your smile is healthy enough for veneer treatment, we’ll take impressions, photos, and X-rays of your mouth. With this information, we (along with your help) will design your smile and create a custom treatment plan tailored to your needs!
At your second appointment, we’ll prepare your teeth for veneers. This process is minimally invasive, as we only need to remove a small layer of your front-facing enamel to create space for the veneer to sit.
Once your smile is prepared, we provide temporary veneers to help protect your teeth and maintain the aesthetics of your smile. While wearing your temporary veneers, you can adjust the shape, size, and color of your smile. Any changes we make to your temporaries will reflect in your final version.
When your final veneers arrive, you will try them on to test the look and feel! If they fit perfectly and look exactly how you imagined, we will cement them in place. However, if you need any changes, we’re often able to make them right there in the office. If not, we’ll return them to the lab for technicians to alter to your preferences.
After we bond your veneers in place, we recommend returning for routine dental visits every six months. In combination with a good oral hygiene routine, these visits will keep your veneer smile happy and healthy for years to come!
The Cost of Your Veneer Smile
The price of dental veneers depends on several factors.
The first thing that influences the cost of veneer treatment is the number of teeth you’re looking to perfect! If you’re looking to cover one or two imperfect teeth so they can match your natural smile, your cost will be relatively inexpensive. If you want to treat your entire smile line (or the teeth that show when you smile), the price will be much higher.
Another price factor is the material used in your procedure. Often, we prefer to use porcelain veneers, as it is a more durable material. However, this material is more expensive, as it is made of a higher quality than ceramic veneers. In many cases, we find that the more expensive porcelain is the better option, as it is more resistant to both stains and trauma.
Fortunately, Brockley Dental Center collaborates with various third-party financing companies to make the cost of veneers more affordable. With our flexible financing, you can get your dream veneer smile without breaking the bank!
