Veneers 

A veneer is a wafer-thin layer of porcelain that covers the fronts of teeth to improve their appearance. At Dr Be Smiles, they are custom-made for each patient to fit perfectly and match the shade of the surrounding teeth.  

Veneers can fix many cosmetic issues, including discolored teeth that can’t be whitened, chipped or broken teeth, and even uneven or irregularly shaped teeth. They can also close gaps between teeth and correct minor misalignment issues, such as slightly crooked teeth. 

The Advantages of Getting Veneers 

• Improved Appearance 

Veneers can transform the appearance of your teeth by covering up imperfections such as discoloration, chips, cracks, or uneven spacing. They can also improve the shape, size, and alignment of the teeth to create a more attractive smile. 

• Long-Lasting 

Veneers are made from durable materials such as porcelain or composite resin that can withstand normal wear and tear. With proper care and maintenance, veneers can last for many years. 

• Minimal Tooth Preparation 

The process of getting veneers involves minimal tooth preparation, which means that only a small amount of tooth enamel needs to be removed to accommodate the veneers. This makes the procedure less invasive than other options and preserves more of the natural tooth structure. 

• Stain-Resistant 

Porcelain veneers are highly resistant to stains from foods and beverages, making them an excellent option for patients who want a bright, white smile that is easy to maintain. 

During your initial consultation, our dentist will examine your teeth and discuss your goals and expectations for the procedure. They may also take X-rays or impressions of your teeth to create a treatment plan tailored to your needs. The dentist will then remove a thin layer of enamel from your teeth to prepare them for the new veneers. Next, they’ll make an impression or mold of your teeth to send to the laboratory to create your veneers.  

Once your veneers are ready, our dentist will check their fit and color before permanently bonding them to your teeth using a special dental adhesive. The veneers are then cured with a special light that hardens the adhesive, ensuring a solid bond. After placing your veneers, our dentist will check your bite and make any necessary adjustments. You may also be asked to return for a follow-up appointment to ensure that your veneers are functioning correctly and that you are satisfied with the results.
