What Are Dental Veneers?
At UMG Family Dentistry, our goal is to help you love your smile. Porcelain veneers offer a simple and effective way to fix cosmetic concerns, such as tooth discoloration, chipped teeth, gaps, or worn-down teeth. These thin, custom-made shells, also known as dental veneers, are bonded to the surface of your teeth to improve their appearance. The material is durable, often made from porcelain or e.max® porcelain, and designed to provide a long-lasting, natural-looking result. Whether you're dealing with stained teeth or other aesthetic issues, dental veneers can transform your smile. Contact our Columbia, MD practice today to learn more about how veneers can enhance your look.
What Is the Treatment Process for Veneers?
We start by taking impressions of your teeth to design the dental shells, then remove a small amount of enamel from your teeth to ensure a good fit and proper bonding. When the custom veneers are ready, we will use a strong dental adhesive to keep them in place. We'll adjust and polish them to ensure they blend seamlessly with your natural teeth. You'll have three types of veneers to choose from. Porcelain veneers are a popular choice because of their natural appearance and strength. They mimic the light-reflecting properties of real teeth, giving you a bright, lifelike smile. E.max veneers are made from lithium disilicate glass ceramic. They're known for being extra strong and durable, making them ideal for long-lasting results. If you're looking for a minimally invasive option, Lumineers® may be for you. These are ultra-thin and often don't require any enamel to be removed before placement. The whole process is designed to give you a flawless and comfortable result.
What Are the Benefits of Having Dental Veneers?
This dental procedure can address a range of cosmetic concerns and is a popular choice for Columbia, MD-area patients looking for a long-term way to improve the look and feel of their teeth. UMG Family Dentistry offers this amazing solution that provides multiple advantages for enhancing your smile, such as:
