It’s a sad reality of life that the majority of us are not born with a perfect million dollar smile. Whether we go through treatment with braces, or decide not to undertake that sometimes painful process, the majority of the population will still hide their smile due to the normal wear and tear of everyday life. Whether it’s gaps, chips, misshapen teeth, or discolored teeth, there is a solution to getting the bright smile you want. Dental veneers can easily correct your teeth’s imperfections and give you a more confident, beautiful smile – and no, they are not just for the Hollywood elite.
Veneers are a thin layer of either composite resin or dental porcelain that is bonded to the front of an existing tooth. Dental veneers are a great option to achieve a bright, natural smile in as little as one to three dentist visits. There is minimal preparation required, but your dentist will want to take care of any decay or underlying issues before they are applied.They are a permanent solution, and can last over 20 years before needing replacement!
Veneers have also improved oral health for some who find themselves with fewer cavities and healthier gums! Still not convinced of the benefits of veneers? Here, we address some common misconceptions that may help ease your mind:
- Veneers look fake.
- As long as you work with a dentist who specializes in cosmetic procedures, there will be great measures taken to ensure the shade goes with your complexion and that the shape of the veneers are how you want your smile to look.
- Dental veneers cause problems with tooth sensitivity.
- Veneers can actually help your tooth sensitivity. Enamel erosion causes a lot of sensitivity, but since veneers adhere to your tooth’s surface, they will cover the sensitive area, preventing any more pain.
- Most dental veneers have to be replaced every year.
- As long as you take care of them and avoid eating hard foods that may crack them, veneers can last for many years.
- The materials that veneers are made of are bad for your body.
- All materials that veneers are made out of are considered body-safe materials and should not cause any health concerns.
We believe there are so many benefits to veneers, with their stain-resistant material, to being minimally invasive by allowing your natural teeth to remain largely intact with minor alterations. Here is our list of the top ways veneers can totally transform and improve your smile:
- They can make your face appear younger.
- A bright, straight smile almost always takes years off your face.
- Worrying about stained teeth is a thing of the past.
- Veneers can resist stains from food, dark drinks, and even tobacco.
- Veneers can correct almost any problem, from gaps, overcrowding, chips, alignment issues, to shape of the tooth.
- With veneers, you can make your teeth into any shape, length, and color you desire!
- You get fast results.
- Unlike braces or whitening treatments which can take months or years, after just one to three visits, you’ll have a brand new smile that will stay brilliant for many years to come.
- They can give your self-confidence a boost.
- Living life with the confidence that your teeth look exactly the way you’ve always wanted them to can’t help but make you smile!
While dental veneers are a great option to transform your smile, there are a few things to consider. You will want to make sure you find a qualified dentist who specializes in cosmetic procedures. Veneers are custom-made to fit your smile, and you’ll want to make sure your dentist knows how to meet your specific needs to give you the most natural smile. Veneers can also be pricey. Depending on the material you choose, the cost can range anywhere from $250 – $2,500 per tooth. While this may seem like a lot, keep in mind this investment should last you over 20 years, and if they are deemed medically necessary, some insurances may even help cover the cost of veneers. It’s also good to note you can choose specific teeth for veneers, and you do not have to cover all your teeth.
