Looking for a smile transformation that is quick and easy? You may want to consider dental veneers. Dental veneers are thin, custom-made shells that are bonded to the front surface of your teeth to improve their appearance. They can transform your smile by fixing discoloured, chipped, or misshapen teeth, giving you the perfect set of pearly whites you’ve always dreamed of.
At Waterloo Dental, we offer a range of dental veneer options, including porcelain and composite veneers, to help you achieve the smile you desire. Our experienced team of dental professionals will work with you to determine the best veneer option for your unique needs.
Porcelain veneers are thin, custom-made shells that are bonded to the front surface of your teeth to improve their appearance. They are a popular option for those looking for a long-lasting and natural-looking solution to their dental imperfections. Porcelain veneers are resistant to stains and can last up to 15 years with proper care.
Composite veneers, on the other hand, are made of a tooth-coloured resin that is applied directly to your teeth and sculpted to the desired shape. They are a more affordable and less invasive option compared to porcelain veneers. Composite veneers typically last 5 to 7 years and may require more frequent touch-ups or replacement.
The process of getting veneers typically takes two appointments. During the first appointment, we will prepare your teeth for the veneers by removing a small amount of enamel to make room for the veneers. We will then take an impression of your teeth to create custom-made veneers that fit perfectly over your teeth. During the second appointment, we will bond the veneers to your teeth and make any necessary adjustments to ensure a perfect fit and natural look.
Maintaining your veneers is important to ensure their longevity. You should brush and floss your teeth regularly, and avoid biting hard objects, such as ice or pens, as well as food that could potentially stain your veneers, such as coffee, tea, or red wine. Regular check-ups with your dentist will also help ensure the health and longevity of your veneers.
