Dental veneers are a conservative way to help mask any major discolorations , help improve the alignment or shape of your of your teeth or to restore any small chips. Veneers are thin porcelain shells that are made by our lab and are customized to you including the shape and shade. Our dentist, Dr. Janet Kan will be there to discuss your concerns and determine if veneers are a good option for you !
Prior to your veneer appointment , we may start with intraoral impressions or a scan to get a preview of what your new veneers will look like on a wax-model. Once we receive the “wax up” we will set up an appointment to see if any tweaks or changes would be preferred. Also some patient may want to whiten their teeth as
The veneer process will require two appointments. The area that will be work on will be numbed with a fun flavored topical gel followed with local anesthetic in order to make the procedure as comfortable as possible. Your tooth will be minimally prepared for the veneer and an impression will be taken and sent to our dental laboratory where they will fabricate your custom crown. While we wait for your crown to be made, you will have a temporary veneer will be made by our dental team which will protect your tooth. After 7 to 10 day, you will return to our office where we will fit and cement your crown.
