Transform Your Smile with Porcelain Veneers in Acton

What are Veneers?

Veneers are thin pieces of porcelain that fit over the front of your teeth. This cosmetic treatment is one of the most popular ways to improve your smile. Veneers are commonly used to address those smile imperfections that might be holding you back.

Veneers offer a fast track to a better smile. In general, veneers will result in a more youthful appearance. They can address a wide range of imperfections, including:

• Crooked teeth
• Gaps
• Discoloration
• Cracks and chips
• Thinning enamel

Are Veneers Safe, and Do They Hurt to Get?

Veneers are a safe and effective way to enhance your smile when done properly. Unlike the “Turkey teeth” trend, which involves excessive drilling that can cause nerve damage and lifelong pain, our approach focuses on preserving your natural teeth. In many cases, minimal or no preparation of the tooth structure is required, allowing the porcelain to be added directly to your existing teeth.

The procedure is generally pain-free, with local anesthetic used only if necessary to ensure your comfort. After treatment, you might experience mild sensitivity as your teeth adjust to the veneers, but this is temporary and should subside quickly.

How will I know What They will Look Like?

The reason we have so much success is down to our planning. Before placing your permanent veneer, we create a wax mockup of your new smile so that you can see what it will look like. This is also an opportunity to request any final changes before we place your final veneer.

How will I Know What Color to Choose?

For all cosmetic cases, we work closely with our head ceramist to ensure the color is discussed in detail prior to creating your veneer. Whitening your teeth ahead of the veneer treatment can help you to reach a shade you are happy with, and then we can match the veneer to this whiter shade.

If we are performing a full smile makeover, including the upper and lower teeth, you will be able to select your desired shade. This is where the brightest white shades can be achieved to give you a celebrity smile.

How Do I Care for my Teeth with Veneers?

Caring for your teeth with veneers is straightforward and helps maintain their longevity. Here are some tips:

• Brush and Floss Daily: Use a soft-bristle toothbrush and non-abrasive toothpaste to clean your teeth gently.
• Avoid Hard Foods: Steer clear of biting into hard objects like ice or using your teeth as tools to prevent chipping or cracking.
• Maintain Regular Check-Ups: Visit your dentist regularly to monitor the condition of your veneers and ensure your oral health.
• Protect Against Grinding: If you grind your teeth at night, use a custom night guard to protect your veneers.
• Limit Staining Foods and Drinks: Reduce consumption of coffee, tea, red wine, and similar items to keep your veneers looking bright.

With consistent care, your veneers can stay durable and beautiful for years to come.

Can Your Teeth Go Back to Normal after Getting Veneers?

Dental veneers are designed to cover imperfections like stains, chips, or gaps, giving you a flawless smile. However, once veneers are applied, it’s not possible to return to your natural teeth, as a small amount of enamel is removed to make space for the veneers. This process is permanent, but it allows us to create a beautiful, long-lasting result.
