Dental Veneers EscondidoDental veneers are shells made to suit the size and shape of your teeth and cover the front surface of a tooth. At Robert J. Malone DDS, we leverage these dental devices to conceal any defects or imperfections on your teeth, such as stains, cracks, or chips. Veneers are versatile and can be used to address cosmetic concerns by enhancing your dental structure and ensuring you have a beautiful smile. What Is a Dental Veneer?A dental veneer is created with superior materials such as porcelain or composite. These tools are cosmetic types, and we like to recommend them to people who wish to conceal imperfections such as discoloration, gaps, cracks, and more. We customize these tooth coverings to ensure a precise fit on your teeth. But you need to note that veneers are only great options for people who do not have underlying oral conditions such as gum disease or cavities. If we find out that you have oral health problems, we manage them first before opting for this cosmetic treatment. Benefits of Dental VeneersHelp Cover Imperfections on Your TeethImperfections on your teeth, such as discoloration, cracks, and chips, can lower your self-esteem and make you not smile confidently. These imperfections are quite visible when you talk or smile. During a consultation with our experts, we explore whether you are a good candidate for veneers by ensuring you do not have any other dental issues. Once we are confident you will benefit from these dental cosmetic tools, we schedule an appointment for installation. Feel and Appear NaturalWe engineer the veneers to appear and feel natural. Porcelain material is the most preferred as it comes with a shade that mimics your teeth, making them quite invisible. These cosmetic tools will help grow your confidence and enhance your aesthetics. We ensure that they are custom-made to fit your individual needs. In the long run, they will allow you to have a natural-looking appearance by ensuring you have even and uniform teeth. Color CorrectionVeneers are designed to achieve the tooth color that you desire. They work to mask all types of discolorations, such as stains that may exist due to medications, drinks, or food. With the correct color, no one will know that you have veneers. These cosmetic tools are quite resistant to staining and will ensure you have a confident smile. Correct Minor MisalignmentsVeneers are also quite useful in correcting minor misalignments or any irregularities in your teeth. They help create uniform teeth that appear straight. With these tools, you avoid the need for extensive orthodontic treatment. Also, veneers help to close spaces or gaps that may exist in your teeth. This will help offer a balanced and harmonious smile. Require Minimal Enamel RemoveWhile installing veneers on your teeth, we only remove a thin enamel layer. After filing and shaping your teeth, we bond the veneer in position. This process is non-invasive; you do not have to be under anesthesia. Low Maintenance OptionsThe veneers we engineer are low-maintenance options since they are stain-resistant. We recommend that you brush your teeth twice a day and visit us for regular cleanings. Veneers are also non-porous and will resist cavities compared to your natural teeth. Ideally, minimal effort is required to maintain them. Dental Veneers in EscondidoIf you are considering dental veneers in Escondido, ensure you visit us. Our clinic has various veneer materials available, and we can recommend the best for you. Porcelain and resin composite are the most popular. Porcelain veneers are durable options and mimic your natural teeth look. Resin materials, on the other hand, are cost-effective options for you. However, they tend to chip and stain compared to porcelain. This material can contribute to tooth decay, which will, in the long run, compromise the integrity of your teeth.  Procedure of Dental Veneers InstallationInstalling dental veneers is a straightforward procedure that we perform in our dental office. But you will be required to make more than one visit to our clinic. The first step starts with the initial consultation, which includes a comprehensive physical exam to ensure adequate oral health. We aim to spot any issues, such as tooth decay, before the application of a veneer. You can also expect us to take X-rays and impressions of your tooth. The next step is to prepare your teeth once we find out you are an ideal veneer candidate. The preparation process involves fixing cavities and reshaping the tooth by removing a thin enamel layer. This will help to cement the veneer and ensure the veneer will adhere well. Once your veneers are ready, we call you in for a fitting procedure. In this appointment, we test the dental veneer color, appearance, and size to ensure it is perfect for your needs. If everything is okay, we bond it on your teeth, but if they are not ideal for you, we send them back to the lab for adjustments. The aftercare period is smooth since the recovery period is short. After the procedure, you can expect soreness in your gums, especially where we had to administer the local anesthetic. If you have so much discomfort, we will prescribe pain medications. Caring for your VeneersAfter installing veneers, you can eat and chew for a few hours after the anesthetic wears off. You will note that the veneers feel rough after installation. But the rough spots will disappear after a few days of brushing your teeth and eating. If you note that this feeling persists, you can contact us. The durability of veneers with proper care is remarkable. For porcelain, they can last for over ten years. You must take some precautions to ensure their durability, such as avoiding chewing sticky objects. Avoid using your teeth to open packaging or any other activity that can damage your veneers. When eating, avoid chewing with the front teeth where the veneers are installed. For people with a habit of teeth grinding ensure you wear a mouth guard to avoid damaging the veneers. You should also wear a mouthguard when playing sports. If you have imperfections in your teeth, do not let that lower your self-esteem. Veneers are cosmetic dental tools that help hide those imperfections and ensure a confident smile. Visit us at Robert J. Malone DDS for more information, or simply call us at (760) 546-5557. |
