Get A Brand-New Smile with Dental Veneers By chrishilldmd on February 08, 2024

There are different reasons why some choose cosmetic dentistry to help transform their smile. The interesting thing about dental veneers is that they are a treatment that can tackle multiple issues.

Firstly, dental veneers are thin porcelain sheets that cover your teeth. They help improve your smile in a variety of ways. With that said, some are under the impression that the treatment can take a while. After all, the results offer such an incredible difference. However, the truth is, the procedure isn’t that time-consuming. They can provide you with a brand-new smile after merely two appointments at your local St. Louis dentist!

Why Dental Veneers?

Most of us have something we’d like to change about our smile. The beauty of dental veneers is they can address several issues within the mouth, through one treatment.

People choose veneers for the following reasons:

  • Close unwanted gaps.
  • Lengthen their teeth.
  • Whiten their teeth.
  • Reshape teeth.
  • Hide cracks and chips.
  • Straighten teeth.
  • Improve overall smile.
Benefits Linked To Dental Veneers

Plus, choosing dental veneers offers plenty of benefits. Some include:

  • They look and mimic natural teeth.
  • They are stain-resistant; therefore, no need for any more teeth whitening treatments!
  • You can select a color to match your real teeth.
  • The gums tolerate porcelain well.
  • They don’t need as much shaping as crowns, plus, they look better and are stronger than them.
Veneers last up to 15 years if maintained properly. They don’t require any special care. In fact, you can simply continue with the good oral health habits you’ve already established. This includes brushing and flossing daily, plus a mouthwash rinse.

Are You A Good Candidate For Dental Veneers?

Dental veneers are a great cosmetic dental option for many. However, it might not be the right treatment for everyone.

You might be a good candidate for this procedure, if:

  • You have good overall oral health. Healthy teeth and gums are a must.
  • You have adequate tooth enamel.
  • You don’t have a teeth-grinding or clenching is an issue. Some St. Louis dentists may recommend a mouthguard before you move forward with veneers.
  • You don’t have bad “biting” habits, like chewing on fingernails or pens. Also, hard candy is a no-no.
Veneers can correct slightly misaligned or crooked teeth. Therefore, your teeth should be moderately straight.

Two Visits to A New Smile

If you’re thinking about choosing dental veneers to help enhance your smile, the first thing to do is book an appointment with your dentist in St. Louis. During this consultation, you can talk to them about your smile goals. This includes what you like and dislike about your teeth, gums, and bite. Your dentist will offer recommendations and answer any questions you have. You can even take a look at the many “before and after” photos of other patients who have chosen veneers. You are also provided with a digital image of what your smile will look like with the treatment. It’s like a sneak peek into the future! Lastly, your dentist will go over pricing options.

After you decide to move forward, your St. Louis cosmetic dentist takes impressions of your teeth. These “impressions” go to a dental lab. They essentially create and customize your new veneers. In the meantime, your dentist places temporary ones in your mouth. They help you get used to your new smile.

When the veneers arrive, your St. Louis cosmetic dentist will place them in for good! They do this by permanently bonding them to your teeth. After that, you are good to go! You’ll be more than ready to show off your beautiful new pearly whites to family and friends!
