Porcelain Veneers for a Beautiful Smile in Ft. Worth, TX
January 20, 2015
If you wish that you could have a smile that’s as beautiful as a movie star’s, then you don’t need to wish any longer. You and Dr. Renee Corbitt in Ft. Worth, TX, can make it happen with porcelain veneers.
Porcelain veneers are ultra-thin sheaths of dental porcelain that are adhesively bonded to the facial side of the teeth in your smile zone. As such, they conceal a number of smile flaws including:
- Teeth that are chipped or somewhat cracked
- Stained or discolored teeth that have not responded to teeth whitening
- Misshaped teeth
- Crooked teeth
- Teeth that have gaps in between them
And while porcelain veneers are a decidedly cosmetic dentistry treatment, they also fill a preventive role in that they shield the teeth they cover from further damage.
The Porcelain Veneer Procedure
The first step in your porcelain veneer procedure is for you and Dr. Corbitt to meet and discuss your smile goals. In designing your veneers, you’ll want to consider the size, shape and color of your teeth, as well as the features of your mouth and face. Then, we’ll make an impression of your teeth that will be sent to a cosmetic dental technician, along with Dr. Corbitt’s unique specifications that will make your porcelain veneers perfect for you.
To prepare your teeth for veneers, Dr. Corbitt will need to remove a small amount of your teeth’s surface enamel. This allows the veneers to lay flush with your other teeth and to adhere more securely to the teeth they cover. While your permanent veneers are fabricated, you may need to wear temporaries. Then, when your custom designed veneers are ready, Dr. Corbitt will bond them to your teeth and carefully trim and polish them for an impeccable finish.
