Below are several of the commonly asked questions about dental veneers that are heard at Cosmetic Dentistry of San Antonio:
Dr. Edward Camacho describes a porcelain veneer as a thin, custom-made shell of tooth-colored porcelain that bonds directly to the front tooth surface. They are used to disguise imperfections in the smile that affect its appearance.
Our porcelain veneers are commonly used to correct several cosmetic concerns, including teeth that are stained, chipped, or misshapen. They can also be utilized to close small gaps between teeth. Dr. Edward Camacho of Cosmetic Dentistry of San Antonio can discuss how these restorations enhance your smile!
With proper care, these restorations will last for many years. However, they will eventually need to be replaced due to wear and tear.
Porcelain veneers are not suitable for everyone. Dr. Edward Camacho can assess your case to determine whether or not they are the best option for you.
The actual process of getting porcelain veneers typically takes place over two dental appointments. During the first appointment, Dr. Edward Camacho will prepare your teeth and take impressions that will be used to create your custom veneers. During the second appointment, your veneers will be bonded to your teeth.
Our team encourages patients to consider porcelain veneers to enhance their smile, primarily when flaws exist on the front of the smile. Veneers are natural-looking, long-lasting, and affordable for patients seeking a comprehensive solution for problem teeth.
As with any dental procedure, there are some risks associated with porcelain veneers. These risks include tooth sensitivity, gum irritation, and the potential for the veneers to chip or break.
If you are not a candidate for porcelain veneers, other cosmetic dental procedures may be able to address your concerns, such as teeth whitening or dental bonding. Dr. Edward Camacho will be able to discuss all of your options with you.
