Many people are interested in porcelain veneers because they are known to address a variety of issues such as:
- Misshapen teeth
- Cracked teeth
- Chipped teeth
- Spaces or gaps
- Discoloration and stubborn stains
- Misaligned teeth
The veneers are made from porcelain, a very thin material that can be manipulated to resemble the natural color of teeth. This is the main reason it is used so commonly in dentist procedures. In addition to the natural look they are durable and can last a lifetime if taken care of properly.
Dr. Khurram is an expert in the field which means the process will be aesthetically pleasing and completely pain-free.
The Procedure
The process begins with some gentle reshaping of the teeth that will receive the porcelain veneer. It’s imperative that the area of the teeth with no signs of decay are cleaned first.
Veneer preparation also involves removing any old fillings as they can make it more difficult for a bond between the porcelain and the filling to form. It’s best to get new fillings before the procedure as it’s recommended that they should not be more than two weeks old.
Not every case requires local anesthesia, but in some cases a sedative may be required if the porcelain veneers will involve significant changes to your original smile. Since this is a sensitive area, Dr. Khurram wants this process to be as pain-free as possible and provides any needed measures to keep it that way.
When it comes to selecting the perfect porcelain shade for your veneers, Dr. Khurram will base it on the shade of the teeth surrounding the area in order to ensure a seamless transition.
Once Dr. Khurram has prepared the teeth and cleaned the surrounding area, an impression of the teeth will be taken. These impressions are instrumental in planning how to move forward with the veneers.
Since it takes about a week to make the porcelain veneers, a temporary veneer may be used in the meantime which will allow you to visually “test drive” your new smile and provide your feedback on the shape, size, and color. We can then take your feedback and make the desired adjustments in the veneers so that the final results are exactly as desired.
When the veneers are ready, Dr. Khurram will carefully place it in order to determine the accuracy and precision of the veneer. If anything is slightly out of place, this could lead to bigger issues in the future. That is why Dr. Khurram will try-in the veneer multiple times in order to ensure that it is the perfect fit. His attention to detail is unmatched.
Once the porcelain veneer has been fitted perfectly for shape, shade, size and aesthetics, it will be bonded to the teeth. Both the teeth and veneer will be polished before bonding. A gel will be placed on the tooth for a few seconds – this is called etching. Etching creates a surface suitable for the veneers to bond to and after the gel is washed away a bonding agent is place on the veneer to tighten the bond. A blue light is then passed over the veneers to finalize bonding and the process is almost finished. Dr. Khurram will clean and floss the new teeth to finish them off.
