So, he is happy to help you find the answers you need by answering the following commonly asked questions about dental veneers:
Q: What are dental veneers?
A: Dental veneers are wafer-thin shells that look just
like natural teeth. They are cemented to the front surfaces of your teeth and they
disguise the imperfections of the smile.
Q: What can dental veneers do for me?
A: Dental veneers can help discolored teeth,
worn-down teeth, chipped teeth, broken teeth, misaligned teeth, uneven teeth, teeth
with gaps between them, irregularly shaped teeth and more. In other words, they can
enhance the appearance of your smile.
Q: What are the steps involved in treatment?
A: Your dentist will numb the mouth
and will trim the enamel of the teeth being treated. This will make room for the
veneers. Then, he will send impressions to dental lab technicians who will custom
make your veneers. When they are ready, your dentist will cement them to the front
surfaces of your teeth.
