If you’re like most people, you may be unhappy with the appearance of your teeth due to unsightly discoloration or any other type of cosmetic flaw. Dissatisfaction with your smile can negatively impact your self-confidence, career, social life, and quality of life. If imperfect teeth in your smile zone are causing a hit to your self-esteem, veneers in Redding, CA, and Palo Cedro, CA, may be the ideal solution.
Porcelain veneers replicate natural teeth’ appearance and luster with minimal tooth enamel removal. When you get dental veneers from our experienced cosmetic dentists at Shasta Family Dentistry, you’ll enjoy superb aesthetics, enduring color stability, natural-looking clarity, and long-term durability—as long as you follow proper oral care!
Veneers are a simple yet highly effective and versatile restorative solution to fix cosmetic dental issues such as chipped, cracked, stained, misshapen, or excessively spaced teeth. They’re an excellent option for concealing discoloration caused by age, tobacco, tea, coffee, or certain medications. Veneers are also highly effective for restoring the ideal shape to naturally misshapen teeth or small chips caused by dental trauma or erosion.
One veneer can be used to improve the appearance of a single tooth, or a set of veneers can be placed on all the front teeth in your smile zone. At Shasta Family Dentistry, dental veneers are one of the most requested procedures for smile makeovers due to their ability to dramatically improve smile aesthetics with little intervention.
When you visit us for the initial consultation, you’ll undergo a thorough screening to ensure you don’t have underlying factors interfering with the successful placement of veneers in Redding, CA, and Palo Cedro, CA. For example, veneers can’t be placed if you have active gum disease or in teeth with cavities, significant cracks, chips, or a weakened structure. For major tooth problems, dental crowns are a better option. If we determine you’re a good candidate, the process and costs are discussed before the start of treatment.
The first step is to remove a thin layer of tooth enamel (about half a millimeter) by buffing it gently. After this, digital impressions are taken, and your data is sent to a dental laboratory to fabricate your veneers. Porcelain veneers are customized to complement your gum and lip line, facial features, and skin tone. Temporary composite veneers are created on-site with our 3D printer, which you’ll wear until the final veneers return from the dental lab.
When your veneers are ready, you’ll return for a second appointment. We’ll check their fit and make any minor adjustments if needed. Photosensitive dental adhesives bond the veneers to your tooth surface, and a curing light is used to harden it. Although veneers don’t require special maintenance other than daily brushing and flossing, avoiding tobacco and stain-inducing foods and beverages can increase longevity. The porcelain fabricating veneers are solid and withstand normal chewing and biting forces.
Veneers last, on average, between 10 to 20 years; therefore, the upfront investment is an excellent value over time. Of course, the cost varies depending on how many veneers you need to restore a symmetrical, pearly-white smile. In addition to competitive pricing, we partner with two third-party dental financing companies to make your dream smile even more affordable. Rest assured, whether you require one veneer or a full row in your smile zone; our team strives to provide exceptional veneers and dentistry under one roof!
