Having a great smile is a privilege that everyone in Fort Wayne should enjoy. The confidence that comes from having genuine pride in your pearly whites is irreplaceable. However, many of us struggle with imperfections in our teeth. Broken, chipped, cracked, stained, and crooked teeth can really put a damper on your smile.
At Dupont Family Dentistry, we understand how important it is to feel confident in your smile. That’s why we offer high-quality porcelain veneers as part of our full range of cosmetic dentistry services, designed to give you a natural-looking, flawless appearance.
What Are Veneers?
Veneers are thin layers of composite or dental porcelain placed over the surface of a tooth to correct cosmetic and functional issues. Invented in 1928 by Charles Pincus, veneers were originally intended to give movie stars perfect teeth for the silver screen. Back then, they were temporary due to a lack of competent adhesive, but modern dental medicine has advanced to the point that veneers can last up to 30 years, and are nearly identical to natural teeth in form and function.
What Can Veneers Fix?
Veneers are a good option for a number of different cosmetic and functional dental issues. Although veneers cannot replace lost teeth, they provide an excellent solution for many Fort Wayne residents. Here are the most common conditions that benefit from veneers:
- Broken teeth
- Chipped teeth
- Cracked teeth
- Mildly crooked teeth
- Small gaps between teeth
- Discolored teeth
- Undesirably large or small teeth
The Veneer Process: What to Expect
Getting veneers is a quick and comfortable process. Here’s what it typically looks like:
- Consultation: We’ll evaluate your smile, discuss your goals, and see if veneers are the right fit.
- Preparation: A small amount of enamel is removed to ensure a seamless fit.
- Bonding: Once your custom veneers are ready, they’re carefully bonded in place and adjusted for a perfect look and feel.
