What Is a Teeth Veneers?

A tooth veneer is a thin covering that fits over your tooth to correct an unattractive smile. The veneers give your teeth a traditional tooth shape that improves your smile and boosts your confidence. A tooth veneer looks like a natural tooth and covers problems with your real teeth.

You might consider tooth veneers to cover:

  • Wide gaps between teeth
  • Discolored teeth
  • Chipped teeth
  • Cracked teeth
  • Misshapen teeth

What Is a Porcelain Veneer?

Porcelain veneers are custom-fitted to your teeth, intended to remain on a tooth for the life of your smile. Long-lasting porcelain veneers give you a naturally beautiful smile with teeth that don’t stain easily.

The procedure to place porcelain veneers is relatively pain-free and less invasive than getting dental crowns. If you decide to have porcelain veneers, here is what happens once you arrive at the dental clinic:

  • The dentist removes the enamel from the front of the tooth.
  • Next, the dentist will make a mold of your enamel-free teeth and will choose the veneer color that most closely matches your other teeth.
  • You will likely wear temporary veneers while the dental lab makes your custom porcelain veneers (which can take several weeks).
  • Once the veneers are ready, the dentist adjusts the fit and then will bond the veneers to your teeth.
  • Once the dentist cleans your teeth, you’re all set!

What Is Good Oral Health for Veneers?

Good oral health for your veneers is critical to keeping them looking fresh and clean. As with natural teeth, brushing for two minutes at least twice per day is essential. Flossing and rinsing with an antiseptic mouthwash is another part of great oral health. While porcelain veneers are stain-resistant, good oral habits dictate that you brush after eating any food that might stain the veneers, including red wine and coffee.

In addition, limiting sugary foods has a positive effect on tooth and mouth health. Once you have veneers, the dentist will advise you not to chew on hard things such as pens, fingernails, or hard candy.

It is best to wear a mouthguard when playing any sports or activity where there could be contact with your mouth.
