We’ve been focusing on our cosmetic treatments recently, such as teeth whitening or dental bonding. However, we have another cosmetic treatment that can completely alter the appearance of your teeth in as little as two visits. Find out how veneers can transform your smile!

  1. True or False: We begin by preparing your teeth.
  2. True or False: The veneer will be custom-made at a local St. Louis dental laboratory from the most natural-looking materials.
  3. True or False: We can address multiple esthetic concerns.
  4. True or False: They will be easy to maintain.

Answer Key

  1. True. Preparation involves removing a conservative layer of outer tooth structure in order to make room for the veneer. We can then take detailed digital x-rays and intraoral camera images, which will aid in the design and fabrication process.
  2. True. The images we gather will be used by an expert ceramist to design the restoration and then create it using porcelain. The material we use can be color matched to blend with your smile, and also contains stain-resistant properties. Once complete, we can place the restoration in your second visit.
  3. True. We can mask permanent teeth stains, close any gaps between the teeth, and repair chipped teeth. They can also be used to reshape malformed teeth or even correct the appearance of minor misalignment. As we said above, they can offer a complete transformation of the shade and shape of your teeth.
  4. True. By caring for your smile from home (brushing twice a day and flossing every night) and seeing us for checkups and cleanings, you can avoid the common oral health concerns that could threaten your newly repaired tooth. We can also monitor your restoration to ensure the veneer continues to provide quality restoration. If you have any questions about our cosmetic treatments, then schedule a consultation today. We can see if your smile benefits from our lifelike porcelain veneers.
