This cosmetic treatment can fix a wide array of aesthetic issues and leave you with a more uniform smile. Continue reading to learn if veneers could be the solution you\u2019ve been hoping for.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Veneers 101<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Veneers are a cosmetic dental treatment that uses ultra-thin, durable shells made from porcelain. They\u2019re bonded to the front-facing portions of teeth with dental-grade adhesive, improving your smile by concealing flaws and imperfections from view. Since the material can be color-matched to surrounding teeth, the results are seamless and natural-looking \u2013 no one will even notice they\u2019re veneers! By maintaining a good oral hygiene routine, you can expect your new grin to last over a decade.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Can They Instantly Correct Misalignment?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Veneers can transform your smile in as little as two appointments! They have even been coined the nickname \u201cinstant orthodontics\u201d. They can conceal a wide range of orthodontic issues, from mild to moderate. With veneers, you can achieve a straighter smile without ever needing brackets, wires, or aligner trays. In fact, your pearly whites will never change positions \u2013 the veneers will simply be placed over them to correct the misalignment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here\u2019s how the process works:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>During your initial appointment, your dentist will prepare the teeth for veneer placement. A thin layer of enamel (no more than half a millimeter!) is removed to ensure the shells will fit flush against the teeth. Then, molds and impressions are taken to fabricate your future pearly whites. You will wear a set of temporary veneers that will be very similar to your permanent ones while you wait for the final placement.<\/li><li>After your first visit, you will return to your dental office once the veneers have been created. Your dentist will test how they fit before permanently bonding them to the teeth. After being placed, you can leave the clinic with a flawless new grin!<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Benefits of Instant Orthodontics<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You can expect to reap many benefits from your new smile, including:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Completing treatment in much less time than with traditional orthodontic treatment<\/li><li>Straightening your teeth without the need for uncomfortable metal wires and brackets<\/li><li>No dietary restrictions<\/li><li>Additional cosmetic issues can be addressed, such as discoloration, staining, chips, cracks, and fractures<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Complicated orthodontic treatments are no longer the only solution to fix your crooked teeth. Thanks to veneers, you can easily make the smile of your dreams a reality in just a few appointments!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Author<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Dr. Hasan Yap and his team at Island City Dental keep the smiles of Wilton Manors beautiful and healthy!
