What Is a Veneer?

​A veneer is an ultra-thin cap of tooth-coloured porcelain or composite that is put up over the tooth to protect it from dental problems, such as uneven tooth alignment or spacing, worn tooth enamel, tooth discolouration, and chips. With proper maintenance, these veneers can last for years without you worrying about tooth issues. To know more, call us now.

How It Works

Dental composite veneers are an effective treatment option for achieving a beautiful smile. They are made of thin composite shells that cover the teeth' surface. Following is the general procedure followed to apply composite veneers:

  • The dentist removes minimal amounts of enamel from the tooth during the procedure.

  • Typically, less than a millimetre of reduction is required for each tooth.

  • It is an essential process as it prepares the teeth to accommodate the veneers.

  • The dentist places a light-sensitive resin between the original tooth and the veneer.

  • The dentist uses a special curing light is applied to harden the material.

 

If you think that dental composite veneers will work for you, contact our dental clinic, and we will help you determine if you are a suitable candidate for this procedure.

When Should You Get Porcelain Veneers?

Getting porcelain veneers in south Calgary by our dentists at Bite Dental Works can be the solution to most cosmetic issues, including:

  • Teeth Whitening
    One of the most visible signs of aging or a lack of oral care is the discoloration or staining of teeth. Cosmetic dentistry offers teeth whitening solutions that can rejuvenate your smile, making you look younger and more confident.
  • Teeth Alignment and Spacing
    Dentistry offers solutions like Invisalign, braces, or veneers to align your teeth perfectly. When your teeth are in proper alignment, they not only look better but are also easier to maintain.
  • Repairing Chips and Cracks
    Cosmetic dentistry offers several methods to cover or repair these imperfections, from composite bonding to porcelain veneers. These fixes are often quick and painless but offer long-lasting solutions to improve the look and functionality of your teeth.
  • Gum Reshaping
    For those who feel they show too much gum when they smile or have an uneven gum line, cosmetic dentistry offers gum reshaping or contouring procedures. This technique balances the proportion of gum to teeth, enhancing the symmetry and attractiveness of your smile.
  • Filling Gaps
    Cosmetic Dentistry can effectively close these gaps using bonding, crowns, or veneers, making your smile more uniform and easier to manage in terms of hygiene.
  • Replacing Missing Teeth
    Cosmetic dentistry offers solutions such as dental implants, bridges, or dentures to replace lost teeth, restoring both the beauty and functionality of your smile.
  • Enhanced Oral Health
    While the primary focus is on aesthetics, many cosmetic dentistry procedures also offer health benefits. For instance, repairing cracked or chipped teeth prevents underlying issues like gum disease or infections.
  • Improved Self-Esteem and Confidence
    The boost in self-esteem and confidence that a better smile brings can significantly impact social interactions, career opportunities, and overall mental well-being.

  • Your teeth are healthy and not decayed.

  • You do not have any gum diseases.

  • You don’t have a habit of grinding your teeth, and there are no signs of bruxism.

  • Your bite is well-aligned.

  • You have ample tooth enamel.

 

If you can’t figure it out yourself, our dentist can help you ascertain whether veneers are right for you. Book a consultation today!

Recapturing the Beauty of Your Smile is Easier Than You Think

Porcelain veneers can be ideal for patients with any cosmetic dental issues, especially unevenly spaced teeth or misaligned teeth:

  • They are strong and with proper maintenance can be long-lasting.

  • They have a natural-looking surface.

  • Less tooth enamel needs to be removed than with a crown.

  • They don’t stain easily.

Additional Benefits

We offer custom-made porcelain veneers at our clinic that provide a natural appearance. The material used to craft the veneers imitates the properties of tooth enamel. In addition, patients are free to choose the colour of their porcelain veneers to ensure they match seamlessly with adjacent teeth. One of the benefits that veneers offer over other cosmetic dental services is that you can select the shape and size of your teeth.
 

  • Fast treatment: Patients can achieve the smile they’ve always dreamed of in only two visits.

 

  • Stain-resistant: Veneers are a popular option among people having tooth discolouration, especially in cases where teeth whitening hasn’t proved to be effective.
