Dental Veneers
A dental veneer is a thin veneer usually made of porcelain that is bonded to the front of the tooth and serves to restore and improve imperfections in the anatomy, color and brightness of the natural tooth. They are also a good option for anterior teeth that have slightly fractured edges, to close spaces between teeth, correct dental stains or color variations and in some cases where the position of the teeth is slightly altered, veneers can give the illusion of being aligned.
Porcelain veneers are an esthetic restorative procedure that by means of minimally invasive wear and in some cases with no wear at all, changes in the shape of the tooth to a more harmonious one are achieved, greatly improving the patient's oral esthetics.
The durability of a treatment with dental veneers is several years, however it is directly related to the care of the patient, their oral hygiene habits, as well as maintaining regular attendance to the dentist every 6 months. The procedure of confection and placement of dental veneers is completely personalized and is relatively fast, in total it can take between 3 to 4 appointments, in one of the appointments a diagnostic test is performed in which a preview of the final result of the treatment called Mock Up is achieved, and thus the patient can visualize in his own mouth the changes that would be made and if he is satisfied with them.
Porcelain veneers can be made in single pieces or in packages of either 6 or 12 units to restore the upper arch, and/or the lower arch. They are made on the front teeth, which are the ones that show when smiling, in some cases it is necessary to add additional veneers on premolars, especially when the smile line is wider.
It is important to consider that not all patients are candidates for dental veneers treatment, the patient's oral health, bite, condition of the dental structures to be involved in the smile design must be evaluated and the patient's expectation of the changes to be made must be realistic in terms of what can be achieved with dental veneers.
