What Are Veneers?
Veneers are incredibly thin sheaths of dental ceramic designed to be bonded to the visible surfaces of your teeth. Ahead of placement, each veneer is highly personalized in order to match your neighboring teeth, all while being free of any and all imperfections. If you have multiple problems with your smile, including chips, cracks, gaps, stains, and discoloration, but do not want to undergo multiple treatments just to make it looking the way you want it to, veneers are likely the best cosmetic option for your needs.
The Veneers Procedure
The process of receiving veneers only takes two appointments to complete. During the initial appointment, Dr. Howard takes the time to listen to the specific concerns about your smile and how you would prefer to address them. In order for the veneers to sit flush against your teeth, a tiny amount of enamel is buffed down. This ensures they remain flat and look natural, rather than oversized and noticeable for the wrong reasons.
After your teeth are prepared, Dr. Howard captures an impression of your smile and sends it over to a trusted dental lab where the veneers will be fabricated. His highly experienced technician crafts each veneer individually, which ensures it fits your smile exactly the way it’s supposed to. After about two weeks of wearing temporary veneers, you’ll come back to have the permanent versions placed.
Benefits of Veneers
One of the most popular benefits of veneers is their ability to cover multiple imperfections at a time. Not only does this save you time in the dental chair, but money on other cosmetic treatments. Their versatility is one of the many reasons why so many people (both inside and outside of Hollywood) choose them to complete their smile transformation.
However, it’s not the only benefit patients can expect. Veneers have also been used to correct problems related to the bite (also known as malocclusions.) Doing this positively influences your ability to chew and speak.
Above all else, you can expect a smile that you can feel confident about, no matter what social or professional situation you find yourself in!
Understanding the Cost of Veneers
Like many cosmetic treatments, veneers are highly personalized based on the needs of the patient. This means without a detailed examination and consultation, it’s impossible to know for sure what you’ll pay to have veneers placed. With that said, we’re happy to recommend third-party financing options to make treatment more affordable, especially if dental insurance does not provide coverage. In most cases, veneers are considered purely cosmetic and therefore do not receive reimbursement from most insurance companies.
