However, not everyone is born with a perfect smile. Issues such as chipped, discolored, or misaligned teeth can diminish the beauty of a smile.
Dental veneers provide a transformative solution, allowing you to achieve the flawless smile you've always desired.
At Cooley Smiles - Bellevue, we are committed to guiding you toward achieving that perfect smile, whether it's correcting your bite or enhancing your smile aesthetics.
What are Dental Veneers?
Dental veneers are thin, custom-made shells designed to cover the front surface of your teeth.
Made from durable materials like porcelain or composite resin, veneers effectively address various dental issues including discoloration, spacing, fractures, and minor misalignments.
Not only do they enhance the cosmetic appearance of your smile, but veneers also offer protective benefits and require less alteration of the tooth structure compared to crowns.
They are celebrated for their durability and aesthetic improvement with options available that require no preparation of the underlying teeth.
Why Choose Porcelain Veneers?
Why choose veneers over other cosmetic options? Veneers offer several compelling benefits, making them a popular choice for enhancing dental aesthetics:
Veneers Brighten Your Smile
Years of drinking coffee, smoking, or consuming pigmented foods can stain your teeth.
While bleaching can temporarily brighten your teeth, veneers provide a durable solution to discoloration, offering long-term resistance to stains and keeping your smile consistently bright.
Correcting Minor Imperfections
Veneers effectively mask various dental imperfections such as chips, cracks, small gaps, and slight misalignments. They cover minor orthodontic issues without altering tooth positioning.
While veneers don't replace orthodontic treatment, they can be an aesthetic solution in some cases where orthodontic intervention isn't necessary.
Restoring Damaged Enamel
Enamel can be worn down by aggressive brushing, acidic foods, or conditions like acid reflux, and once lost, it cannot regenerate. Veneers provide a protective cover, strengthening teeth compromised by enamel erosion and enhancing the aesthetic of your smile.
The Porcelain Veneer Procedure
Our skilled dental team can guide you through the process of improving your smile with dental veneers, starting with a comprehensive consultation to evaluate your oral health and discuss your aesthetic goals.
While veneers are suitable for many, they are not appropriate for everyone. A consultation will determine your eligibility, including an examination of your teeth and potentially some tests to ensure your gums are healthy enough for the procedure.
Following your consultation, a minimal amount of enamel is gently removed from the front of your teeth to make room for the veneers. This process is minimally invasive and tailored to ensure a seamless fit for your new veneers.
Impressions of your teeth are then taken to create veneers that perfectly match the shape, size, and color of your natural teeth. You will be given temporary veneers and once your permanent veneers are ready, you will come back in to have them placed on your teeth.
