Dreaming of a flawless, picture-perfect smile? Dental veneers might be the solution for you! Veneers are thin, custom-made shells that cover the front surface of your teeth, improving their shape, color, and overall appearance. Whether you’re looking to fix discoloration, chips, gaps, or misalignment, veneers offer a long-lasting and natural-looking enhancement.
At Upper Hunt Club Dental Centre, our professional and highly skilled team is here to guide you through every step of the process. Here’s what you can expect when getting dental veneers:
1. Initial Consultation
The first step is a consultation with our experienced dentists to determine if veneers are the right option for you. We’ll examine your teeth, discuss your goals, and take X-rays if needed. This is the perfect time to ask questions and explore your options, including porcelain or composite veneers.
2. Tooth Preparation
Before placing the veneers, a small amount of enamel (about 0.5 mm) is removed from the front of the teeth. This ensures a snug fit and a natural look. Don’t worry—this is a minimally invasive procedure, and local anesthesia may be used to ensure comfort.
3. Taking Impressions
Once the teeth are prepared, we take impressions to create your custom veneers. These molds are sent to a dental lab, where highly durable, aesthetically pleasing veneers are crafted to match the shape and color of your natural teeth.
4. Temporary Veneers (If Needed)
While waiting for your permanent veneers (which may take a couple of weeks), temporary veneers may be placed to protect your teeth and give you a preview of your new smile.
5. Veneer Placement
Once your custom veneers are ready, it’s time for the final placement. Our dentist will check the fit, shape, and color before permanently bonding them to your teeth using a strong dental adhesive. A special light is used to harden the adhesive, ensuring a secure and long-lasting bond.
6. Aftercare and Maintenance
After your veneers are placed, you may experience slight sensitivity, but this will fade within a few days. To keep your new smile looking pristine, follow good oral hygiene practices—brush twice daily, floss regularly, and visit our clinic for routine check-ups. With proper care, veneers can last 10–15 years or more!
