Dental Veneers at Palmetto Family Dental

Why consider dental veneers?

Dental veneers offer a versatile solution to various cosmetic dental concerns:

• Instant Smile Makeover: Address multiple imperfections like stains, chips, gaps, or misalignments in just a few visits.
• Natural Appearance: Custom-made to match the color, shape, and size of your natural teeth for a seamless look.
• Durability: Made of high-quality porcelain, veneers resist staining and mimic the strength of natural tooth enamel.
• Minimal Tooth Alteration: Requires minimal reshaping of the original tooth, preserving its structure. For a complete transformation, consider pairing veneers with teeth whitening.

How is the veneer procedure performed?

The veneer process typically involves:

• Consultation to determine the desired look and assess suitability.
• Minimal tooth preparation to create space for the veneer.
• Impressions taken to custom-craft the veneer in a dental lab.
• Temporary veneers placed while waiting for the permanent ones.
• Final placement of the custom veneers, ensuring a perfect fit and appearance. Regular dental check-ups ensure the longevity of your veneers.

How long do veneers last?

With proper care, dental veneers can last between 10 to 15 years. Maintaining good oral hygiene and avoiding habits like biting on hard objects can prolong their lifespan. Our dental care tips can help maintain your veneers.
