Veneers are the ultimate combination of dental art and science. A set of veneers can correct chips, stains, and even deeply discolored teeth. While it may sound dramatic, it isn’t. Porcelain veneers provide a highly conservative approach to esthetic smile makeovers.
Sometimes referred to as instant orthodontics, veneers can dramatically transform your smile.
Not only can they improve the visual appearance of your teeth, but they can also alter the length and size of teeth, like making them appear straight when they are not. These paper-thin pieces of porcelain bond to the outside of your natural teeth. But just because they’re thin, don’t be fooled. Veneers are highly versatile and can replicate all the complex nuances of a natural tooth.
Good Planning Paves the Way
Veneers are handcrafted and customized to fit your smile. There’s a lot of diagnostic work and careful planning that goes into the design. You will look at models, photographs, and digital x-rays. Like all successful projects, this planning can’t be compromised. Dr. Goulet will consider your input and incorporate your desires into your plan, from color to shape and everything in between.
Same Day Veneers
With all of our Porcelain Restorations (Crowns, Veneers, Bridges, Inlays) we do a same-day process from start-to-finish. First we prepare the tooth, digitally scan it, design, build and mill the porcelain, then seat the tooth-colored restoration… all in the same day! The dentist will try-on and evaluate the appearance and fit of the restoration before bonding it into place. Minor adjustments to your bite and a final polish will leave you with one of the finest restorations in dentistry.
Delivering the Magic
After your veneers have been masterfully crafted in our lab, we will try on each one to evaluate the appearance and fit. Then we will precisely bond the thin porcelain to the surface of your teeth, creating an incredibly strong bond between tooth and porcelain. The last step will be minor adjustments to your bite, and a final polish. The results will be a smile that may have you wondering why you waited so long.
At Goulet Family Dentistry, watching patients see their brilliant new smile for the first time is the highlight of our day!
