Veneers: Permanent Smile Transformation

Dental veneers are a fantastic solution for improving the look of your smile and restoring the proper functionality of your teeth. The crown-like shells made from composite resin or porcelain are thinly layered over your teeth to cover dental stains or damaged structures like chipped teeth.

 

When starting your makeover treatment, the dentists Parramatta will take ample time to review and make sure that each veneer has the right shape, colour, and dimension to match and complement the rest of your teeth.

 

Are Dental Veneers a Permanent Solution?

 

Yes, they are, in the sense that you cannot remove them yourself, as the thin layers of resin or porcelain are bonded over your teeth. Dental veneers are extremely strong and durable, especially the ones made of porcelain, which can last for more than a decade. However, patients who opt for resin veneers may have to be more careful, as the material is more likely prone to chipping and breaking up and less durable than porcelain.

 

While both options will give you a beautiful smile for several years, it is important to know that the material chosen will also impact the length of the treatment and the cost of veneers dental.

 

Why Choose Porcelain Veneers

 

Resin veneers offer an affordable and quick way to cover up dental imperfections, such as small stains from food and drink consumption, that professional teeth whitening cannot remove. Since the material can be directly applied to the teeth and then shaped, the treatment commonly requires only two or three visits and is a little complex and time-consuming.

 

The higher price for porcelain veneers results from the cost of the superior material itself, the detailed fabrication process, which includes a dental lab to custom fabricate the shells, and the subsequent visits at the Parramatta dentist for the fitting and bonding.

 

How to Maintain Dental Veneers

 

To keep your veneers in immaculate shape and avert other dental concerns, you should stick to good oral hygiene practices to significantly lower the risk of tooth decay and gum disease. It is furthermore advisable to refrain from habits like smoking, consuming foods and beverages that stain easily, and especially eating hard and crunchy foods to avoid chipping.

However, porcelain is less porous than the natural enamel that covers your teeth, and the material will not stain as easily when drinking coffee or wine or eating coloured foods that you might feel hesitant about.

Nevertheless, the resin used for composite veneers is as receptive to stains as your natural teeth. Hence, they are far less durable than their porcelain counterparts. Even though considered permanent, depending on your oral hygiene and wear, you might still have to replace them every five to seven years.

 

How Dentists Parramatta Colour-Match Veneers

 

Designing this type of cosmetic dentistry is truly an art that can only be performed by an experienced Parramatta dentist. Finding the right porcelain shade to match your denture can be challenging. Given that your teeth are not all the same colour, the process is not as straightforward as you might think. To tailor a smile perfectly, the dentist has to work closely with an equally knowledgeable ceramist to ensure your dental veneers will be transparent enough to blend naturally with the rest of the neighbouring teeth. Hence, to perfectly colour-match veneers to a patient’s smile, the dentists Parramatta have to follow the criteria such as facial characteristics, shade of white, translucency, and the remaining teeth.
