Dental veneers are custom-designed shells of
tooth-like ceramic material that, when applied over
the surface of a tooth, can cover worn tooth enamel,
uneven tooth alignment or spacing and chips or
cracks.
Dental veneers fall into the category of
cosmetic dentistry because they create a bright,
white smile with beautifully aligned, shapely teeth.
Even better, the translucent ceramic quality of
today's veneers provides a more natural look than
what’s been available in the past.
Regardless of what causes unattractive teeth, dental
veneers may solve most or even all of your cosmetic
dental issues, including:
-
Worn enamel: Over time, the thin, hard white
substance covering your teeth (enamel) may
become worn, dulled, and discolored. Such wear
and discoloration may be natural or the result
of a genetic predisposition; however, it is
often a result of your habits (soft drink, tea,
or coffee consumption, smoking, medication use,
etc.).
-
Wear and tear: Teeth naturally wear down as
people age. Aged teeth are more likely to have
chips, cracks or a generally uneven appearance.
-
Genetics: Certain people may be born with
abnormal spacing between the teeth that grows
wider as they age.
-
Uneven teeth: Uneven teeth can result from tooth
grinding or general wear and tear.
11) Smile Design
A beautiful smile can dazzle and sparkle, charm and
entice. It says let's talk - I care - Cheer up. A
smile communicates your feelings about yourself and
others. Like the lines, colors, and shapes in a
painting, your teeth should work together to produce
a pleasing effect. A bright smile projects warmth,
approval, or self-confidence.
On your first visit, your dentist will do a thorough
evaluation, so as to assess the general health and
cosmetic appearance of your teeth and gums. This
will help your dentist determine whether you are a
good candidate for a newly designed smile, or not.
The next step maybe to determine the best options
for enhancing your smile, and whether preparatory
dental treatment is needed. This is a good time to
ask questions, so your decisions can be based on an
understanding of the different techniques available.
It may also help you realize that cosmetic dentistry
cannot create perfection - but it can greatly
improve the appearance of your teeth. Your dental
evaluation will include:
-
Dental history - previous treatment, symptoms,
habits - any clues that might endanger cosmetic
work.
-
Dental examination - decay, gum disease, any
existing fillings, bite problems, evaluation of
the overall appearance of your smile. A model
(replica) of your teeth may be made and
photographs of your smile may be taken, which
will provide a record of how your teeth looked
before treatment began.
-
X-rays - an internal picture of your teeth and
jaw-bone, confirming absence of abnormalities
such as decay or bone-loss, so as to ensure that
your cosmetic enhancements are built on a solid
foundation.
