Veneers are thin handcrafted porcelain shields worn on the front of the tooth which improve the appearance of teeth that are chipped, cracked, stained or worn. Veneers are thin as contact lenses, and are an aesthetically pleasing option of closing gaps, lengthening teeth, and providing symmetry to make your smile more natural. Veneers are intended to last for many years without changing color. They are one of the most popular cosmetic procedures in dentistry. Ask your dentist if veneers may be right for you.

The Porcelain Dental Veneers Process

While the process for receiving custom-made porcelain dental veneers can vary from patient to patient, there are some common steps. Here’s what you can expect during the process:

Initial Consultation

During your initial consultation with Briglia Dental Group, your West Chester cosmetic dentist, Dr. Briglia will evaluate your oral health and discuss your cosmetic dental goals. He’ll also explain the porcelain veneers process and answer any questions you may have.

Designing Your Veneers

If you’ve been approved for dental veneers, we’ll take images and impressions of your teeth to design your personalized veneers. We’ll also help you choose the shade of porcelain that matches your natural teeth or recommend a whiter shade for a whiter appearance.

Installing Your Veneers

Once your veneers are ready, your cosmetic dentist will prepare your teeth by removing a small amount of enamel to create room for the veneers. Before bonding the veneers to your teeth, your dentist will make any necessary adjustments to ensure your veneers fit comfortably and look natural. Finally, he’ll use dental cement to bond the veneers to your teeth and cure them with a special light. 

How to Maintain Your Porcelain Veneers and Dental Crowns:

Here are some tips for keeping your porcelain veneers and dental crowns looking their best:

1. Brush your teeth twice a day with a non-abrasive toothbrush and fluoride toothpaste.
2. Floss at least once a day to remove food particles and plaque buildup between your teeth and around your veneers or crown.
3. Use an antibacterial mouthwash to kill bacteria and freshen your breath.
4. Avoid using your teeth to open packages, bottles, or anything that could damage your veneers or crown.
5. Wear a night guard if you grind or clench your teeth while sleeping to prevent damage to your veneers or crown.
