You Look Amazing!

Not every smile is born perfect and not many stay that way over time. If you’d love to have a natural-looking, attractive smile, veneers are a good choice. Veneers restore the natural beauty of teeth that show yellowing, decay, chipping, breakage, wear or abrasion, or imperfect development. People truly appreciate veneers because they look so much like natural teeth, just amazingly attractive, and resist stains from coffee, tea, red wine, and cigarette smoke.

What Veneers Can Do for You

Veneers can solve these teeth problems:

• Close spaces or gaps between the teeth
• Restore the look of broken or chipped teeth
• Cover unsightly or stained fillings
• Permanently whiten discolored teeth
• Correct uneven or crooked teeth

Strong, Durable, and Stunning

Veneers are thin but strong shells of porcelain that are permanently bonded to the tooth’s surface. Crafted of high-tech and highly aesthetic porcelain, they are applied with a strong resin adhesive. These custom-made moldings cover the front of your teeth and match your natural tooth color. The finished result is extremely strong, durable, and appealing.

How are Veneers Created?

To make your customized veneers, Dr. Salee prepares your teeth by removing a small amount, usually .5 to 1 mm of enamel at most. In space-closing cases, no enamel needs to be removed to achieve an optimum result. Dr. Salee then takes an impression of your teeth. Your impression is then sent to a premium dental lab that specializes in highly aesthetic dental veneers. Dr. Salee has done extensive research to find the highest-quality labs and technicians in the country. When ready, Dr. Salee applies the veneers. The procedure can take as few as two appointments.

Fillings, Crowns, or Veneers: What’s Best When?

• Filling best when a small amount of tooth structure needs replacing or repair
• Inlays or Onlays are best when the amount of tooth structure lost is too great for a filling but not so much that a crown is indicated.
• Crown best after a root canal treatment or when a great amount of tooth structure was lost
• Veneers best when part of the front surface of a tooth needs a facelift

Veneers Last for Years

However, they last longer when you care for them properly. Regular oral hygiene is important. Avoid bad habits. It’s best not to bite nails, chew on bones or ice, or open nut shells with your teeth.
