If you are over the age of 16 and has healthy gums, without decay, missing teeth or large gaps. You could consider placing veneers. If you are an individual with the habit of grinding teeth while sleeping or biting nails, our cosmetic dentist can discuss the outcomes and will advice you accordingly.
The procedure may cause very little to no discomfort as the procedure is carried out under a local anesthesia. Some patients complain of a tingling sensation called sensitivity after the procedure. A fluoride gel applied by your dentist could reduce this tingling sensation.
The cost of veneers depend upon a number of factors like the number of teeth being treated, the type of veneer used (composite veneers cost less compared to porcelain veneers). Our dentists at Shams Dental Clinic are always available to guide you according to your need and affordability.
The preparation procedure for veneers is very simple and you leave the clinic with a temporary veneer. This helps you get back to normal life right after the dental office visit.
Veneers could be treated like natural teeth. Brushing and flossing twice a day to keep the veneers free from bacteria, food lodgment and deposit build up would be sufficient. Scheduling yearly appointments with our cosmetic dentist helps us check for any defects.
Veneers may be replaced but cannot be reversed. However, with proper care they last between 10-20 years. If one of the veneers loosen, wears out or beaks; they can may be replaced.
Good oral hygiene with proper tooth brushing and flossing can keep the teeth under veneers free from decay causing bacteria. If proper care is not taken, there are chances for decay on the natural teeth around and under the veneers.
The layer of tooth surface removed during the preparation for veneers make them prone to decay if not protected by veneers.
Treatments other than veneers to correct minor imperfections like discolorations, small gaps, and teeth size issues are lumineers, crowns, and composites. Our dentist at Shams Dental Clinic can discuss these thoroughly with you.
It is likely that your veneers may loosen over a period of time. Keep the veneers in a safe place, book the earliest appointment with your dentist and get them re fixed or replaced ,if any defects are present.
Your teeth may feel a tingling sensation to cold food or liquids when the veneer is off.
