Hide Stains and Other Dental Flaws with Cosmetic Teeth Veneers

Not everyone is born with the smile they love. Far too often, people get used to their smile, figuring they can’t afford to “fix” it. This is why dental veneers have become one of the most popular dental treatments worldwide. They take far less time and cost far less than other corrective treatments. You can now look and feel your best while enjoying the brilliant smile of your dreams without breaking the piggy bank! At Mirage Family Dentistry, Yorktown, Virginia, Dr. Rajni Kapoor offers clients many affordable options to create their perfect smile using dental veneers. 

1. Problems Veneers Can Address

Veneers are made using ultra-thin layers of dental ceramics, like porcelain, that are custom-matched to the color of your surrounding teeth to create a seamless illusion. Every veneer is custom-shaped to a specific tooth before being applied to the front surface. After your new veneer or veneers are secured, they will flawlessly cover up a wide range of flaws. 

A few of the esthetic imperfections veneers can cover include:

• Small cracks
• Chips
• Uneven spacing
• Tooth gaps
• Misshapen teeth
• Teeth impacted by wear and tear (bruxism)
• Teeth that have irregular contours

PATIENT RESULTS

Issue: Peg shaped Upper right lateral incisor (tooth next to the front tooth)

Solution: Restored tooth with a conservative composite(Directly bonded) veneer

2. Preparation

Traditional veneers require some minor preparation before they can be applied. This involves removing a tiny amount of enamel from the surface of each tooth receiving a veneer to ensure a secure bond and fit. We also proudly offer a “minimal-prep” product called Lumineers^®.

3. Lumineers^®: A Light Touch Treatment Offering Big Results

You don’t always have to undergo a drawn-out or invasive treatment to get dramatic results. With Lumineers®, we can preserve your natural tooth enamel since it is super-thin and can fit over your teeth without any preparation. The process is among the most minimally invasive you’ll ever experience in a dentist’s chair, which is great news for those with sensitive teeth.

In fact, the treatment is so gentle that you won’t even need anesthesia. Lumineers^® is ideal for anyone who suffers from dental-related anxiety and fears triggered by instruments such as drills, scalpels, and needles.

Plus, if you don’t like your new smile, Lumineers^® is completely reversible since your tooth enamel isn’t altered.

4. Requirements 

Of course, before receiving this treatment, we’ll need to ensure your teeth are in tip-top shape. If you have dental issues such as tooth decay or gum disease, these must be addressed before we can proceed with any cosmetic treatment.

You’ll receive a comprehensive exam to assess your dental health. This process may involve minimally invasive dental X-rays and scans, along with a physical inspection of your teeth.
