What are Dental Veneers?
Dental veneers are covers for the teeth that are crafted from porcelain or composite resin material. Veneers are bonded to the teeth and blend in with your natural teeth, resulting in an aesthetically pleasing, uniform smile.
Veneers are often recommended to help patients correct the appearance misshapen, stained, uneven, or chipped teeth. Veneers are ultra-durable and designed to 10-15 years with proper care!
Who is a Good Candidate for Veneers?
Patients looking to correct aesthetic concerns like tooth stains, misshapen teeth, and chips or gaps in the teeth are often excellent candidates for veneers.
Veneers can be used to create an even smile, close gaps between teeth, and look natural in the mouth. Gum tissue tolerates porcelain veneers very well, and veneers are stain resistant which helps to keep them bright white.
How are Dental Veneers Applied?
The dental veneer application process typically takes more than one appointment with our north Spokane dentists. You'll come in for a preliminary consultation to discuss your goals, and to determine a customized veneer treatment plan. Our team will take x-rays to allow us review your teeth in detail, and determine what type of veneers will help you achieve your best smile.
When patients return to office, a portion of the tooth enamel is removed to prepare the teeth for the veneers. Molds of your teeth are taken, and are sent out to a lab to prepare the veneers. Once the veneers are ready, our team ensure the veneers fit properly and check the color and appearance to ensure they match perfectly with your natural teeth.
Once the veneers have been placed, you'll return to our north Spokane dental office for a follow-up appointment, to ensure your new smile is to your satisfaction! We offer the following veneers systems at our North Side dental office:
Porcelain Veneers
Durable porcelain veneers are long-lasting and easily matched to the shade of your natural teeth. Porcelain veneers are the most common dental veneer material because of their longevity and customizable nature. Porcelain veneers also preserve as much of your existing tooth as possible, for smile results that last!
Lumineers
Lumineers a a type of porcelain veneer that require minimal tooth preparation. Compared to traditional veneers, Lumineers use thinner material that is easily applied and placed on the tooth.
Composite Resin Veneers
Composite resin veneers are a cost-effective option that can help patients correct the appearance of chips in the teeth, uneven teeth, gaps in the smile, and more. Typically, the life of a composite resin veneer is not as long as traditional porcelain veneers. Composite resin veneers are applied in a similar fashion with minimal tooth preparation, and offer a budget-friendly alternative to other veneer materials.
CEREC Same-Day Veneers
Veneers crafted with CEREC (Chairside Economical Restoration of Esthetic Ceramics) technology allow our Spokane dentists to create and design veneers for patients using our in-office milling unit. With CEREC technology, you won't have to wait for your veneers. They're crafted right here in our office, resulting in a smile transformation on the same day as your appointment.
