Veneers
Veneers are thin wafer-like shells that are used to cover the surface of a tooth. Veneers can be used to improve the aesthetics as well as to restore the functionality of the teeth. They are mostly made from porcelain, and hence, perfectly mimic the color and texture of the enamel.
Are you the right candidate for veneers?
Veneers can be used to treat several dental issues. If you’re suffering from any of the following, you would be the right candidate for veneers.
Treatment procedure
Prior to starting the treatment procedure, the dentists checks the oral setup for any underlying issues or infections that might affect the process. Next, the tooth that requires the veneer will have to be prepared for the veneer. X-rays will be taken to determine the severity of the chipping, cracks or wear (in case the tooth is damaged) and also to map out the position of the veneer.
The tooth will be thoroughly cleaned and buffed. This is done to accommodate the veneer on it. The thickness of the enamel removed is usually equal to the thickness of the veneer. An impression of the tooth is taken on a mold and sent to a dental laboratory, where the veneer will be fabricated. It would take a few weeks time for the veneer to be ready to bond.
During the process of bonding, the veneer would be placed on the tooth and checked for perfect fit and comfort multiple times before it is permanently bonded on to the tooth. When the shape of the veneer is finalized, the dentist prepares the tooth for bonding. The tooth surface would be roughened, so that the veneer can adhere to it, and photosensitive dental adhesives would be used for the bonding process. A laser would be used to activate and harden the adhesive, after which the final bite test will be taken.
