Important Information about Porcelain Veneers

Have you ever wondered how movie stars and other celebrities get such perfect-looking smiles? Often, the answer is with porcelain veneers. Veneers consist of an extremely thin layer of dental porcelain material. Don’t worry – this type of porcelain is not the same material used in porcelain china! In fact, dental porcelain is actually very strong and durable material.

When a thin layer of dental porcelain is applied over the surface of your natural teeth, the result is truly astounding. Problems such as misshaped teeth, chipped teeth, or badly stained teeth are instantly remedied by porcelain veneers, making a dramatic improvement in the person’s smile. Better still – the dental porcelain material usually lasts for several years.

The Veneer Procedure

Having porcelain veneers applied to the surface of your teeth can usually be completed in two visits. At your first visit Dr. Reddy will prepare your teeth as well as take impressions so that your permanent porcelain veneers can be made. In addition, she will also place temporary veneers while your permanent ones are being completed.
During your second appointment Dr. Reddy will apply an adhesive to the surface of your prepared teeth and place the thin layer of porcelain. Furthermore, Dr. Reddy will answer any questions you may have regarding the care of your porcelain veneers and the best way to keep them looking their best.

Of course, porcelain veneers may not be right for everyone. Talk to Dr. Reddy for more information and to find out whether or not porcelain veneers are the right choice for you. If you are interested in getting veneers in a single visit ask us about composite veneers.
