Answer Key
- False. We can help a wide range of patients with our veneers, as they are simply thin restorations that cover the front and sides of the teeth. As a result, they can help nearly anyone that needs cosmetic improvement due to the shade and shape of their teeth.
- True. We will prepare the teeth first by removing a thin layer of enamel. We then take impressions of the teeth, which will be used at a dental lab in the design and fabrication process. The material we create them with, porcelain, can be shaded to better blend with the smile and ensure a natural looking restoration.
- True. Our team has placed them to mask permanent teeth stains, close gaps between teeth, lengthen worn down teeth, address minor chips or issues with a tooth’s shape, or to even correct the appearance of minor misalignment. As you can see, they can address several different esthetic concerns and completely transform a smile.
- False. You simply continue to care for your teeth, veneers include, as you would normally. That means brushing them twice a day, flossing every night, and undergoing routine checkups and cleanings every few months. Doing so can help the restorations stay bright and last for any years.
