What Are Porcelain Veneers?

Porcelain veneers are thin, custom-made shells designed to cover the front surface of your teeth. They are crafted to match the color, shape, and size of your natural teeth, providing a seamless and aesthetically pleasing result. Veneers are commonly used to correct imperfections such as discoloration, chipped or broken teeth, gaps between teeth, and minor misalignments.

Benefits of Porcelain Veneers

    • Improved Appearance: Veneers can instantly enhance the appearance of your smile, covering up imperfections and creating a more uniform and attractive look.
    • Natural-Looking Results: Porcelain closely mimics the appearance of natural teeth, ensuring that your smile looks both beautiful and authentic.
    • Stain Resistance: Porcelain is resistant to stains from coffee, tea, and other common substances, helping your smile stay bright and white.
    • Durable and Long-Lasting: With proper care, porcelain veneers can last for many years, providing a long-term solution to dental imperfections.

How the Procedure Works

  • Consultation: Your journey to a beautiful smile begins with an initial consultation at Corner Stone Dental. During this appointment, your Swansea dentist will evaluate your oral health, discuss your goals, and determine if porcelain veneers are suitable for you.
  • Preparation: If you decide to proceed with porcelain veneers, Dr. Wilson will prepare your teeth by removing a small amount of enamel from the front surface. This step ensures a proper fit for the veneers and helps achieve optimal results.
  • Impressions: After tooth preparation, Dr. Wilson will take impressions of your teeth, which will be sent to a dental laboratory. These impressions serve as a blueprint for the creation of your custom-made porcelain veneers.
  • Temporary Veneers: While your permanent veneers are being fabricated, temporary veneers may be placed to protect your teeth and maintain your appearance.
  • Bonding: Once your custom veneers are ready, your dentist will check their fit, color, and shape. The veneers will be carefully bonded to your teeth using a strong dental adhesive, and any necessary adjustments will be made to ensure a perfect fit.
  • Final Touches: After bonding the veneers, your Swansea dentist will make final adjustments as needed to achieve proper bite alignment and aesthetics. Your new smile will be polished, and you’ll leave the office with a dazzling, transformed smile.

Who Qualifies for Porcelain Veneers?

Candidates for porcelain veneers typically have good oral health with no active gum disease or tooth decay. They should also have enough enamel on their teeth to support the veneers and a commitment to maintaining proper oral hygiene.

Aftercare Tips

  • Maintain Good Oral Hygiene: Brush and floss regularly to keep your veneers and natural teeth clean and healthy.
  • Avoid Staining Foods and Drinks: Minimize consumption of dark-colored foods and beverages that could stain your veneers.
  • Regular Dental Check-ups: Visit Corner Stone Dental for routine check-ups and cleanings to ensure the longevity of your veneers.
  • Wear a Mouthguard: If you grind your teeth at night, wearing a mouthguard can help protect your veneers from damage.
