Benefits of Veneers
Most people are not as familiar with the cosmetic benefits of veneers compared to teeth whitening or bonding. A veneer is an extremely thin layer of porcelain or other material that is crafted and bonded to the front of an existing tooth. Veneers are a relatively permanent solution for restoring or improving the appearance of teeth that are intact.
If you are interested in more information about veneers near you, Dr. Arathi Bimagani offers professional consultations and procedures.
How Veneers Work
For a veneer to work, the tooth must be intact and without significant decay or damage. Since veneer material covers just the front surface of a tooth, much of the original tooth material is left in place. For veneers to adhere properly, they need to bond to the tooth’s original enamel.
The veneer process does not take much more than a few weeks, and the procedure is relatively pain-free. For the veneer to bond to a tooth’s enamel, our dentist in Calgary, AB will ground down a thin layer of the surface of the existing tooth.
Dr. Arathi Bimagani may use a local anesthetic to alleviate any pain due to the grinding. To make the veneer, an impression of the tooth is created. Once the veneer is ready, it is bonded to the tooth with professional cement that hardens into place for a natural look.
People who are confident in their smiles tend to project that confidence outwardly. To restore confidence in your teeth, contact Meadows View Dental for information about veneers and other cosmetic procedures.
