Frequently Asked Questions About Dental Veneers in Forest Hill
How are porcelain veneers applied?
The procedure usually takes two visits to complete. The process starts by making an impression of your teeth and then molding how your teeth will appear once the veneers are placed. The mold is sent to a lab, where the veneers are customised for your smile. This process typically takes a few weeks.
When they are ready and are the correct shape, colour, and translucency, a special tooth-coloured cement is used to bond the veneers to the front of each tooth.
But before the bonding procedure, your teeth must be prepped to receive the veneers, which often includes a cleaning and light sanding. Once the veneers are placed, they are shaped and adjusted to enhance your mouth shape. Once you are satisfied with the appearance of the veneers, we will use a special light to harden the cement and bond the veneers to your teeth. Your dentist will check your bite for comfort and functionality and confirm the perfect fit.
How do I take care of my veneers?
Once they are fixed to your teeth, porcelain veneers should be treated like your natural teeth. Don’t miss your visits to the dentist for a professional cleaning and dental examination. Be sure to brush and floss daily to clean your teeth properly. There is no special treatment needed to care for your veneers.
