What Are Veneers Teeth?
Veneers are extremely thin, yet strong shells of ceramic, porcelain, or composite resin that are bonded directly to the front surface of your teeth. They are custom-made to match the color, shape, and size of your natural tooth structure.
Dental veneers are also durable and long-lasting as long as you give them proper care and practice good oral hygiene.
Veneers are a cosmetic dental treatment that can be used to:
- Whiten teeth that are stained, suffer from discoloration, or can’t be improved with traditional teeth whitening treatments
- Improve the appearance of teeth that are chipped, cracked, or worn down
- Change the shape, size, and/or length of your teeth
- Close gaps between your teeth
At Definition Dental Studio, we use only the highest quality materials for our porcelain veneers in Nolensville TN. We want your smile to look natural and beautiful for years to come!
What Are Veneers Made Of?
The 2 most popular types of dental veneers are porcelain and composite veneers. Porcelain veneers are made from a thin layer of dental ceramic that is color-matched to your existing teeth. Composite resin veneers are made from a plastic resin tooth-colored material.
Both types of veneers are strong and long-lasting, but porcelain veneers are less likely to stain over time. While composite resin veneers cost less than porcelain veneers, they don’t have the same longevity.
At Definition Dental Studio we specialize in porcelain veneers because we believe they provide the best results and look more like your natural teeth.
Porcelain Veneer Procedure
The veneer process usually takes place over 2-3 visits to your dentist’s office. During the initial consultation with your cosmetic dentist, they will assess your smile and talk to you about your cosmetic goals. They will also take X-rays and impressions of your teeth in order to create a custom veneer treatment and dental care plan.
If you decide to move forward with the cosmetic dentistry procedure, the next step is to prepare your teeth for veneers. This usually involves removing a small amount of tooth enamel from the front surface of your teeth. This is done so that the veneers can be bonded directly to the exterior of your teeth.
After your teeth have been prepped, your cosmetic dentist will take another mold of them and send it to the dental laboratory where they will construct your veneers. In the meantime, you may be given temporary veneers to wear until your permanent veneers are ready.
When your permanent veneers are completed, you will come back in for another appointment to have them bonded directly to your teeth. The dental bonding process is usually quick and painless. Once your veneers are bonded in place, you can enjoy your new smile!
