FOREVER CHANGE YOUR SMILE

WITH PORCELAIN VENEERS

Porcelain veneers – also known as laminates- are used to cosmetically enhance and often transform the appearance of a smile permanently. A veneer is made of very thin customized porcelain that is artistically crafted to a desirable color and shape. They are strongly bonded to the surface of the natural teeth to reshape broken, misshapen, or crooked teeth, as well as provide a solution for discolored teeth that do not respond to traditional whitening treatments. Patients with veneers achieve a natural tooth appearance that is well-tolerated by the gums and resistant to future stains.

Beautiful and Natural Looking Smiles

“When achieving excellent results, my goals is to create a smile that is noticeable only because it looks great and is natural-looking. I know I did my job well when my patients get compliments on a great smile, not on having a great dentist.” ~ Mitchell S. Milan, DDS

THE PROCESS

STEP 1

CONSULTATION

During your consultation, Dr. Milan personally reviews your concerns and determines if you are a good candidate for the procedure. We ask what you like and don’t like about your smile; what would you change about your smile? After discussing your goals your new smile is designed using models and photos. This is done using a “Diagnostic Wax-up” and or Digital imaging.

STEP 2

PREPARATION APPOINTMENT

Before the final porcelain veneers can be placed on the teeth, the surface of the teeth must be prepared. In many cases, your teeth will only need a minor shaping procedure which can be done without using any local anesthetic (“Novocaine”). Some teeth may require additional reduction which may require numbing. We then take an extremely accurate mold of your teeth that will be used to form the veneers in the laboratory. Our expert ceramist will custom fabricates your new veneers while you wear your temporary veneers made from your diagnostic wax-up.

STEP 3

PLACEMENT OF YOUR NEW PORCELAIN VENEERS

After one to three weeks, your temporary veneers are removed and the permanent porcelain veneers are “tried-in.” Once we confirm that everything is optimal, the veneers are permanently bonded and adjusted. You now have your new smile! If notified in advance, we can offer a quicker turnaround time of just a few working days.

POST TREATMENT INSTRUCTIONS

Just like your natural teeth you can eat, brush and floss your new veneers. To assure long term dental health and appearance visit your dentist every 6 months. Because veneers are usually placed over the course of two appointments, it is normal to experience some sensitivity between appointments. After a short while your teeth will feel completely natural but it is always a good idea to be careful (as it is with your natural teeth) to protect your veneers. If you have a history of heavy grinding or tooth clenching we will make a night guard to protect your new veneers and your teeth in general. In most cases porcelain dental veneers will last approximately 15 years.

Transforming Smiles with Porcelain Veneers: A Comprehensive Guide

The Art of Smile Enhancement with Veneers

Porcelain veneers, also known as laminates, are a revolutionary way to permanently enhance and transform your smile. These thin, custom-made porcelain shells are designed to cover the front surface of teeth, addressing issues such as broken, misshapen, or crooked teeth and even discoloration that doesn't respond to whitening treatments. Veneers offer a natural-looking solution that is well-tolerated by the gums and resistant to future stains, ensuring a beautiful and enduring smile transformation​​.

The Veneers Process: A Step-by-Step Overview

Consultation: Personalizing Your Smile

The journey to a perfect smile begins with a personalized consultation. Dr. Milan evaluates your dental needs and preferences to determine if you're a good candidate for veneers. This process involves discussing your smile goals and using diagnostic tools like wax models and digital imaging to design your new smile tailored to your unique facial features and aesthetic desires​​.

Preparation: Crafting Your Custom Veneers

The preparation phase involves minor shaping of your natural teeth to ensure a perfect fit for the veneers. This step might require local anesthesia, depending on the extent of tooth reshaping needed. An accurate mold of your teeth is then taken to custom fabricate your new veneers. Temporary veneers are provided, offering a glimpse of the outcome and ensuring comfort during the interim​​.

Achieving the Perfect Smile: Placement and Care

Placement: The Final Transformation

After a few weeks, your custom porcelain veneers are ready for placement. The temporary veneers are removed, and the permanent ones are carefully "tried-in" and adjusted for an optimal fit. Once everything is perfect, the veneers are permanently bonded to your teeth, revealing your new, dazzling smile. Post-placement veneers are maintained like natural teeth, with regular brushing, flossing, and dental check-ups​​.

Longevity and Maintenance: Ensuring Lasting Results

Porcelain veneers typically last about 15 years with proper care. Protecting them from damage caused by habits like teeth grinding is important. In such cases, a night guard may be recommended. Regular dental visits are essential to maintain your veneers' health and overall oral health​​.
