What porcelain veneers can do for your smile at Way Dental
In just a couple of visits, crooked, stained, chipped, misshapen, or worn-down teeth can all become a flawless smile. Porcelain veneers make it possible: paper-thin shells of ceramic that bond to the front of your teeth and instantly correct cosmetic issues that would otherwise take years of orthodontics, or wouldn't be fixable at all.
This video shows how the process works from start to finish. First your teeth are gently prepared, sometimes only lightly buffed, to make room for the veneers, and an impression is taken so the dental lab can fabricate your custom shells. A temporary set protects the teeth while you wait. At a follow-up visit, the permanent veneers are bonded in place and adjusted to look completely natural.
You have two main types to choose from. Traditional veneers call for a small amount of enamel preparation to achieve a precise fit. No-prep veneers are ultra-thin and bond directly to the existing enamel, often with no drilling required. Based on your goals and the condition of your teeth, your dentist will recommend the right approach.
Few cosmetic treatments deliver a transformation as dramatic as veneers. So if you've ever wished your smile looked different, schedule a consultation to see what's possible. We'll walk you through the options and show you what your new smile could look like.
