San Francisco and Marin CA
Have you ever seen a bright, flawless smile and wondered how someone could be so lucky? Chances are, it isn’t luck. It’s more likely a modern dental treatment that many people are turning to for a smile that turns heads. Whether they’re correcting discoloration, chips or gaps between teeth, dental veneers are a long-lasting and natural-looking way to enhance your smile’s aesthetics. Let’s look today with our San Francisco cosmetic dentist at what veneers can do for you, your smile and your overall self-confidence.
What are dental veneers?
Veneers are custom-made, wafer-thin shells made of porcelain or composite resin that adhere to the surface of teeth to mask cosmetic imperfections. Some people choose to cover all of their front teeth in veneers, giving the smile a perfectly uniform, white and bright look.
Why should I choose veneers?
Veneers offer a variety of benefits, including:
- Improved aesthetics – Veneers can correct stained, chipped misaligned or unevenly shaped teeth, giving you a radiant and uniform smile.
- Minimally invasive — Unlike other restorative treatments, veneers require minimal tooth preparation. Our cosmetic dentist in Marin will scrape a bit of your tooth enamel off to help with adhesion. Otherwise, your natural tooth structure is preserved.
- Long lasting — Veneers are very durable and highly resistant to staining, and with proper care, they can last up to 15 years.
- Natural looking — Veneers are custom-fabricated to match the color, shape and size of your natural teeth for a seamless, natural-looking smile.
How long do veneers take?
Veneers usually take two office visits. Our Bay Area cosmetic dentist will examine and assess your teeth, discuss your goals and determine if veneers are the right treatment for you. We will remove a small bit of enamel from the tooth to be covered, then take impressions so your veneer can be custom-created. Once your veneers are ready, we will schedule another appointment to bond them to your teeth, giving you an instant transformation.
