Few of us have perfect smiles. The front teeth may be somewhat crooked or stained. There may be gaps or chips or the teeth may be uneven. In the past, the only way to correct these or other imperfections was to install crowns, an expensive and time-consuming procedure. Today, at Omega Denatal Clinic we can correct cosmetic imperfections with veneers, ultra-thin shells of ceramic material that are bonded to the fronts of the teeth, much in the same way that artificial fingernails are attached to the fingers. The only requirement is that the teeth be structurally sound.
They also provide an excellent alternative to traditional orthodontics, instantly filling gaps between teeth and giving misshapen teeth a more aesthetically pleasing appearance.
The teeth don't require extensive shaping prior to the procedure. This means that little or no anesthetic is required. Veneers made from a ceramic material called porcelain look natural and last longer than their plastic predecessors. Porcelain veneers resist stains from coffee, tea, or smoking.
And because porcelain, like enamel, is translucent - meaning that light passes through rather than reflecting off the outer surface - veneers are far and away the most organic looking dental bonding option.
If it is determined at your initial consultation at Omega Dental Clinic that dental veneers are the best option for you, we will begin the process by gently buffing your teeth to remove a thin layer of enamel. During your next visit to our clinic, we will check the fit and color of your veneers, making adjustments as necessary. After ensuring that the veneers are perfectly suited to your teeth, we will cement them in place, and you will be ready to display your beautiful new smile to the world.
