The Benefits of Veneers

VeneersWith so many cosmetic treatments to choose from, how do you know which one is best for you. Well, if you have deep stains, mild crookedness, gaps, or chips, porcelain veneers may be the best choice. Custom-crafted from premiere dental ceramic, veneers cover the front of healthy, but flawed, teeth. Dr. Jeffrey Mason can tell you about porcelain veneers when you visit his Hasbrouck Heights, NJ, office for a personalized consultation.

Veneers and you

Porcelain veneers are super-thin, tooth-shaped shells of fine ceramic which faithfully mimic natural tooth enamel in color, sheen, and shape. Permanently bonded on the cheek side of selected teeth, veneers beautify and strengthen smiles.

Dr. Mason places porcelain veneers on healthy teeth. During a consultation with your dentist in Hasbrouck Heights, you'll learn how your smile can improve and exactly how the treatment will proceed. For your part, you'll tell Dr. Mason how you'd like your smile to change:

  1. Do you wish to even tooth length in the "smile Zone" in the front of your mouth?
  2. Are your teeth somewhat crooked or widely spaced but do not need orthodontic correction?
  3. Are your teeth so stained they do not respond to professional whitening treatments?
  4. Are some teeth poorly shaped, chipped, or cracked?

Have your smile goals in mind so you and Dr. Mason can formulate a treatment plan perfect for your facial appearance and lifestyle. Dr. Mason will examine your teeth and gums carefully before treatment; he will address any restorative issues before beginning the veneer process.

The treatment

After your initial consultation, your dentist will take oral impressions and do some minor enamel resurfacing. After that, he'll place temporary laminates so you look and feel comfortable as you wait for your permanent veneers to return from the dental lab.

Rest assured that when you receive your veneers, you'll be pleased with how beautiful and realistic they are. Dr. Mason will remove your temporary laminates and bond the permanent ones in place using a special adhesive which is both strong and tooth-colored. A special light hardens the adhesive after your dentist carefully adjusts the bite. That's it! You have resurfaced teeth that are truly stunning and perfectly suited to your unique facial features.

For the next few days, you'll adjust to how your veneers feel. And, of course, you'll brush twice a day, floss daily, and eat your usual healthy diet. Every six months, see Dr. Mason for your normal prophylaxis (check-up and cleaning). Plus, the American Dental Association (ADA) recommends limiting staining foods, such as soy sauce and curry and coffee, tea, and cola. Of course, everyone should avoid tobacco because it stains both natural enamel and porcelain restorations, but also because of its toxic health effects.
