When it comes to cosmetic dentistry, there’s something for everyone! Cosmetic treatments abound to help you find just what you need to improve your smile’s appearance. Consider cosmetic teeth veneers if you’re looking for a quick, minimally invasive treatment to correct chipped, stained, gapped, or slightly crooked teeth. Porcelain veneers give your smile a stunning, natural-looking, unblemished appearance.
Redmond Smiles is your one-stop location for cosmetic veneers in the Everett, Washington area. A consultation with Dr. Colby Eckland can determine if veneers fit you well. Here are a few features you’ll appreciate about cosmetic teeth veneers.
Porcelain veneers are highly customizable. They can mimic your natural teeth to look authentic. Veneers are even translucent, just like natural tooth enamel. Once cemented, these thin, cosmetic shells meld with your teeth to give your smile a beautiful new appearance. Tooth flaws magically disappear with veneers to unveil your smile’s hidden beauty. Porcelain veneers are also stain-resistant and will retain their vibrant appearance for years.
For some people, a smile makeover with veneers is all they need to create the smile of their dreams. Veneers can address multiple dental imperfections simultaneously, making additional cosmetic procedures unnecessary. They can repair chips and cracks in your teeth, close tooth gaps, straighten slightly crooked teeth, lengthen short teeth, widen thin teeth, brighten dull, stained teeth, and more!
Porcelain veneers are known for their resilience. They may not be as strong as natural teeth, but they’re durable and capable of withstanding the daily pressure of biting and chewing. What’s more, they strengthen your teeth, making them more resistant to chipping and cracking in the future.
After years of wear on her front teeth, our client decided to pursue orthodontic treatment to correct her bite. This created spaces upfront that Dr Colby was able to fill with direct bonding veneers. Now our client is thrilled and can not stop smiling!
The veneer process is quick and painless, and can often be completed in two dental visits. Dr. Eckland will remove a thin layer of enamel from the teeth to be fixed. No other alteration is needed. Impressions are taken of your prepped teeth and sent to a lab to have porcelain veneers custom-made for your use. When your restorations are ready, we’ll cement them to your teeth permanently, making your smile transformation complete. If tooth sensitivity is an issue, we can use a local anesthetic for prepping and applying your veneers to keep you comfortable and pain-free.
Veneers don’t require special aftercare treatment but need some care to look and function their best long-term. Daily brushing and flossing will keep your veneered teeth fresh and clean. Seeing Dr. Eckland periodically for routine checkups and cleanings will also help preserve your veneers. How long do teeth veneers last? With quality oral care, your porcelain veneers can have a long lifespan of 15+ years.
