Veneers
La Verne, CA

Over time, your teeth can take on some damage… even if you are faithful in your brushing and flossing. Chips, discoloration, or general crookedness can mar the appearance of your teeth and cause you to feel less than fully confident in your smile. Dental veneers may be the solution. With veneers, you can restore your smile to a healthy appearance, and regain some of that lost confidence. At Elevated Dentistry, we are pleased to provide patients in La Verne with dental veneer services.

What are Veneers?

Dental veneers are essentially a thin layer of material, custom-made to fit over your natural teeth. Veneers are designed to replicate the look and feel of your own teeth, but with improved esthetics and feel. With veneers, you can conceal cosmetic issues with your natural teeth, including chips, stains, or teeth that are less than ideal in shape. Dental veneers are made of an all ceramic material permanent solution. Preparing teeth for veneers requires a small amount of the natural tooth to be shaved in order to effectively place the veneer in place. Due to the thinness of the veneer, this shaving is minimal.

The Veneers Treatment Process

The Consultation and Teeth Examination

The first step in the process is scheduling a consultation with Elevated Dentistry. During the one-on-one meeting, your dentist will outline the process, tell you more about your veneer options, and answer any of your questions. Additionally, the dentist will examine your teeth to ensure you are eligible for veneers.

Preparing Your Tooth for a Veneer

In order to prepare your teeth for veneers, your dentist will make minor changes to the shape of the teeth planned for veneers. This involves shaving a small portion of your natural tooth, roughly equal to the width of the veneer itself. This ensures that your veneers fit comfortably, without causing your mouth to feel too “crowded” or “bulky.” This procedure will typically be done with localized anesthesia. Before you leave the preparation appointment, you will be fitted with custom temporary veneer so you have a beautiful smile before you leave the office.

Bonding Process

Our dentists remove the temporary veneers and bond the permanent veneers to the prepared teeth. This process is usually fairly quick and comfortable.
