Achieving Your Dream Smile with Veneers

One cosmetic dentistry procedure can completely transform your appearance and give you the smile you've always dreamed of; porcelain dental veneers. Imagine improving your smile at a dental office that feels more like a spa. Welcome to Aesthetic Dentistry of Stuart where you can treat yourself to a beautiful smile and indulge in a bespoke, luxurious dental experience.

Porcelain Veneers in Cosmetic Dentistry

Cosmetic dentistry takes your healthy smile and enhances it. Porcelain veneers play an important role in the process of upgrading smiles. They bond to healthy teeth to restore the shape, size, color, or overall appearance of the tooth.

If you have any of the following concerns about the appearance of your teeth, veneers can solve your problems:

• One or two discolored teeth

• Chipped teeth

• Teeth that are too short or improperly shaped

• Slightly crooked teeth

• Teeth with small gaps between them

Veneers conceal these dental problems while giving you a natural, healthy smile. You may choose to place veneers on just a couple of teeth, or opt for a complete smile makeover with a full set of veneers.

What Veneers Can Do for Your Smile

Veneers may have a thin structure, but they are durable. We use porcelain to construct our veneers, making them look like natural teeth and resistant to staining.

How your smile changes with veneers depends on the look you want to achieve and your current appearance. Our team will customize your single veneer or full set to give you the smile you've always wanted in just one procedure.

Choosing veneers means you don’t need lengthy treatments to achieve a completely new, stunning look.

The Role Veneers Play in Smile Enhancement

Just as a spa customizes the treatments you receive, at Aesthetic Dentistry of Stuart, we do the same for cosmetic dental care.

Smile enhancements may involve multiple procedures we offer. For example, if you want straighter teeth with gaps closed, you might need orthodontic treatment, such as Invisalign or braces. The orthodontic treatment may correct some of the gaps between your teeth, and porcelain veneers can cover any remaining small gaps.

Veneers also help with color correction. If you have a tooth with an internal infection, it may remain discolored. A veneer can easily cover the discolored tooth so that it matches the color of its natural neighbors.

What to Know Before Getting Veneers

Your dream smile is within reach, and the first step is a consultation with Dr. Crary and Dr. Viego. They will discuss what you want your smile to look like and examine your teeth.

This meeting will provide us with the information needed to determine whether veneers are a good fit for your smile goals. If not, we can help you choose an alternative cosmetic dental service based on your teeth, gums, and overall health.

Before getting veneers, you may need other dental treatments to ensure that your teeth are healthy and strong enough to support the veneers. For instance, if you have symptoms of temporomandibular disorder (TMD), such as chipped teeth or facial pain, you may need neuromuscular dental treatment to address the problem. Without correcting the symptoms of TMD, your new veneers could break due to misalignment of your jaw. Treating TMD before placing veneers will ensure the longevity of your veneers and help you live without TMJ pain.

The procedure for veneers includes preparing your teeth and gathering the information necessary for your veneers to be hand-crafted by our experts. We will bond the lab-made veneers to your teeth, transforming your smile in one procedure. Once bonded, the veneers stay in place for 10 years or more, depending on how well you care for them.

How to Keep Your New Veneers Looking as Beautiful as the First Day

Enjoy your new smile for years by taking care of your veneers. The good news is that caring for your veneers is similar to your regular dental care routine.

Keep your veneers looking bright by doing the following:

• Brush and floss daily

• Keep regular dental cleaning and checkup appointments

• Avoid or reduce your consumption of tooth-staining foods

• Protect your teeth with an athletic mouthguard during high-impact sports

• Wear a nightguard if you grind your teeth at night (bruxism)

• Use tools or scissors for opening bottles or packages

• Avoid chewing on ice or biting down on hard foods

Take care of your veneers, and you will retain your beautiful smile for decades.
