Dental Veneers From Your Dentists in Brantford

When you’re interested in a more permanent way to address aesthetic smile issues, dental veneers can help! Covering cracks, chips, stubborn stains, and minor tooth misalignments, these custom-made porcelain shells offer an effective and long-lasting way to rejuvenate the look of your smile.

What are dental veneers?

A dental veneer is a thin and durable porcelain shell that is permanently bonded to the front of a patient’s tooth, instantly updating its colour, shape, and length. They also provide a highly effective way to address minor alignment and spacing issues – without braces!

Veneers are incredibly natural looking, are resistant to discolouration and staining, and when cared for diligently, can last for 10 years or more!

How are dental veneers placed?

Once we’ve confirmed that you’re a viable candidate for veneer treatment, we’ll schedule two appointments. During the first, your tooth enamel will be trimmed and a model of your tooth (or teeth) will be made and sent to our laboratory professionals. We’ll place temporary veneers on your trimmed tooth (or teeth) while your permanent versions are created. During the second appointment, we’ll place the completed veneer(s) to ensure the crafted version(s) have the ideal colour, length and shape. Once satisfied, we’ll clean and polish your tooth (or teeth) and permanently bond the veneers in place.

How should dental veneers be cared for?

As with your natural teeth, dental veneers require careful brushing and flossing, as well as regular checkups and cleanings. It’s also prudent to be mindful of your intake of staining foods and drinks since veneers may experience some discolouration over time.

From color to size and shape, dental veneers can provide a solution for people who want a better-looking smile. These procedures are available at Brantford Family Dental Centre in Brantford, Ontario and the surrounding area.
