What Are Dental Veneers?

Veneers are thin, ceramic shells bonded over the front surfaces of your teeth to hide issues to give you a flawless smile. Our team often uses them to address chips, cracks, stubborn stains, mild misalignments, or slight gaps in your grin to enhance your appearance. The porcelain material they’re made from reflects light like enamel and is customized for the right shape, size, and hue for seamless results. Plus, they’re coated with a glaze durable enough to resist damage and discoloration, so they can last 25 or more years if they’re cared for properly.

The Process of Getting Veneers

Before proceeding with your cosmetic procedure, you must consult one of our providers to ensure you’re a good candidate. First, we’ll need to examine your mouth and treat any pre-existing issues, like cavities or gum disease, that might interfere with your results.

Then, we’ll prepare your teeth by removing a thin layer of enamel so your veneers can sit flush against your gums without adding too much bulk. This protective outer layer doesn’t grow back, making this an irreversible change to your smile.

Next, we’ll make impressions and take images of your teeth to send to a special dental laboratory to begin creating your restorations. Because your teeth are somewhat more vulnerable to cavities or injuries with thinned enamel, we’ll likely place temporary veneers to shield them until your permanent ones are placed.

The Benefits of Veneers

There are many advantages to getting veneers in Crown Point, including:

• They can resist chips, cracks, and stains to maintain your looks over time.
• Long-lasting. They tend to stick around for 10 to 20+ years, depending on how well they’re cared for.
• You can fix one or multiple aesthetic imperfections in your smile with a single treatment.
• Tooth-colored materials. They’re completely customizable, so you’ll have a beautiful, natural-looking one-of-a-kind smile.
• Easy to clean. Keeping them in good condition is as easy as brushing and flossing twice daily, avoiding overly hard or sticky foods, and visiting our team every six months for a routine appointment.

Understanding the Cost of Veneers

Veneers are considered a cosmetic treatment because they’re intended to improve your appearance more than your oral health. As a result, many dental insurance policies don’t cover the cost. It’s natural to wonder how much you’ll owe, but pricing depends on your unique circumstances. For instance, the total due can be influenced by how many teeth must be treated, whether other services are also required, and how they’re made.

However, we believe that everyone deserves to feel confident in their smile and we don’t want your finances to hold you back. If you’re concerned about affording veneers, don’t worry! We proudly partner with CareCredit so that, if your application is approved, you can divvy your total invoice into more manageable installments that are easier on your wallet.
