What is Dental Veneer?
Dental veneers are a dental procedure that provides an aesthetic improvement by applying a thin coating to the front surfaces of teeth. These veneers are usually made of porcelain or composite material and help to achieve a natural and attractive smile by improving the color, shape and size of the teeth.
Types of Dental Veneers
Dental veneers generally come in two main types:
Porcelain Veneers: Porcelain veneers offer a look that matches your natural teeth and are long-lasting. They are durable and provide color stability, which allows you to have a white smile for a long time.
Composite Veneers: Composite veneers are made with a material that is applied directly to the tooth surface. They are shaped directly by the dentist and the treatment can usually be completed in a single visit. They are a more economical option than porcelain veneers.
Dental Veneer Process
The dental veneer process usually involves the following steps:
Examination and Planning: First, your dentist evaluates your teeth and discusses your expectations with you. A treatment plan is created and the veneer color and shape are determined.
Preparation: A thin layer is removed from the front surface of the teeth so that the veneer can adapt to the tooth. This step is usually done under local anesthesia.
Impression Taking: Impressions are taken of the prepared teeth and the veneers are custom-made in the laboratory or in your dentist’s office.
Application: The veneers are temporarily placed on the tooth surface and the fit is checked. Finally, the veneers are fixed and shaped using permanent adhesive.
What is a Temporary Dental Veneer?
Temporary dental veneers are a type of veneer that provides a temporary solution after the preparation phase of the teeth is completed and while waiting for the permanent veneers to be made. Temporary veneers are made after your dentist prepares your teeth and takes their measurements and are used until the permanent veneers are ready.
Purposes of Temporary Dental Veneers
Protection: After the teeth are cut or shaped, it protects the sensitive surfaces of the teeth from external factors.
Aesthetics: It preserves the aesthetic appearance of the teeth during the treatment, so you can continue your daily life without aesthetic concerns.
Function: Temporary veneers provide comfort during the treatment process by supporting chewing and speaking functions.
Advantages of Dental Veneers
Aesthetic improvement: Can correct irregularities in color, size and shape.
Durability: Porcelain veneers are long-lasting and composite veneers are also durable.
Natural appearance: Provides an aesthetic that is compatible with natural teeth.
