Porcelain veneers at Dental Health and Aesthetics Center offer patients a solution for their imperfect smiles. These thin facings of porcelain are bonded onto teeth to cover issues such as permanent staining, breakage, or gaps between teeth. Dr. Claire Cho in Aliso Viejo, California, is pleased to educate her patients about the benefits of veneers and what to expect during the process.
Obtaining porcelain veneers typically involves a few visits to Dr. Claire Cho. During the initial consultation, Dr. Claire Cho will discuss the goals for your smile and evaluate if you are a good candidate for veneers. If so, she takes impressions of your teeth to create models from which their laboratory technicians can fabricate custom-made veneers. Sometimes a temporary veneer is bonded in place until the veneers are made.
On the next visit, our team at Dental Health and Aesthetics Center will check the fit of the veneers before permanently attaching them to your teeth. After that, cement is applied between each shell and tooth to affix it in place.
Finally, Dr. Claire Cho will make any necessary adjustments to ensure a seamless appearance and comfortable fit. Once the veneers are correctly placed and adjusted, you should be able to enjoy your beautiful new smile for years to come!
Proper oral hygiene is key to ensuring the longevity of your porcelain veneers. This means both brushing and flossing daily. Additionally, you should have regular dental check-ups for cleanings and examinations so any potential issues can be caught early on. Avoid bad habits such as chewing on hard objects that could damage the veneers. Adhering to these recommendations will help preserve their beauty.
If you are considering porcelain veneers, consult an experienced cosmetic dentist like Dr. Claire Cho, who can properly assess whether or not it is right for you. With proper care, your new and improved smile will surely last you many years!
