What are Dental Veneers?
Veneers are not a one-size-fits-all cosmetic solution. Instead, these thin sheaths are fully customized to fit over the front of your teeth, revealing a smile that looks beautiful in size, shape, and color. Crafted with the help of digital impressions, veneers are commonly made out of porcelain and are stain-resistant. Their durability and longer-lasting materials allow you to enjoy the aesthetics of your smile for up to 15 years if you commit to taking care of your new teeth.
Veneers are also considered highly versatile because they can conceal all types of flaws, including chips, cracks, stains, gaps, misshapen or “short” teeth, slightly crooked teeth, and minor misalignment.
The Process of Getting Veneers
You can expect the veneer process to take at least two appointments, as we will need to prep your teeth before placing your new restorations. During your initial visit, one of our dentists will begin removing a small portion of tooth enamel from the surfaces of your teeth. This allows your veneer to lay flat when bonded, appearing more natural.
After the enamel is removed, we will take digital impressions to provide the local laboratory with an accurate model that can be used to craft your new veneers. This typically takes a few weeks.
We will place temporary veneers not only to protect your exposed teeth in the meantime but also to allow you to get a feel for what it will be like to wear veneers. Once your finalized restorations are ready, we will have you come in for the second visit, which will entail removing your temporaries and positioning your new teeth properly in place. With a final polish, you will be ready to start enjoying the benefits of your smile.
The Benefits of Veneers
Cosmetic dentistry is a vast umbrella that encompasses many unique services, each designed to enhance your appearance. However, veneers are the only ones that can truly transform your teeth based on your preferred size, shape, and color. Other great benefits they provide include:
- A lifespan of 15 years or more
- Stain-resistant
- Only two appointments are required
- Highly versatile in covering all types of flaws
- Durable and capable of withstanding daily wear and tear
- Lifelike results that boost confidence and expand opportunities
Understanding the Cost of Veneers
Determining the cost of veneers in Albuquerque is not possible until we have a chance to meet with you for a scheduled consultation. Each person has unique needs and requests when looking to improve their appearance, so we must carefully evaluate your smile and listen to your goals before we can develop a plan or cost estimate. The good news is that no matter the price, our team is here to make sure your out-of-pocket expenses remain as low as possible. Although dental insurance is unlikely to help financially, there are additional ways to save money and still receive the smile of your dreams.
