Fresno Cosmetic Dentist Answers Common Questions About Porcelain Veneers

What do porcelain veneers do?

This popular cosmetic procedure combines skillful artistry, dental knowledge, and quality materials to improve smiles. There are several ways porcelain veneers can transform your smile. Want to hide permanent tooth stains? Veneers can cover unsightly discoloration. Have an embarrassing smile gap or a chipped tooth? Porcelain veneers correct uneven spaces and tooth chips. Is your smile crooked or overcrowded? With porcelain veneers we create a uniform, straight smile, quickly.

How do porcelain veneers work?

You may be wondering how one cosmetic dental procedure can cover so much ground when it comes to smile imperfections. The secret to this multi-tasking cosmetic dental service is the material. Each veneer is fabricated from durable porcelain by expert ceramists. The thin as a wafer restoration is shaped to match the exact specifications for your smile, whether that means adding length to short, stubby teeth, closing smile gaps, or creating a smoother tooth edge. Dyed to match your smile coloration and placed over the front side of your tooth, porcelain veneers from our Fresno cosmetic dentist appear natural and beautiful at the same time.

How does Dr. Denes place porcelain veneers?

You may be surprised to find that your complete smile makeover can be completed in as little as two office visits. At your first cosmetic dentistry appointment, Dr. Denes will conduct a consultation to determine your goals and expectations. Our Fresno cosmetic dentist will take molds of your smile to send to the ceramist so that your veneers fit optimally with each tooth. Once the restorations are fabricated, Dr. Denes will place the veneers individually using dental bonding. After a quick polishing, you can walk out of our Fresno dental office with a beautiful new smile that you can expect to last for years to come.
