Porcelain Veneers – The ultimate smile upgrade—hand-crafted veneers that transform and elevate in just a few visits.
Corrective dentistry has come a long way. From the earliest days of man-made dentures, there have been some interesting innovations, to say the least. Castellanos Dental mostly employs Emax-brand veneers, but select other brands of veneers are considered, depending on the circumstances and the patient, and if use is direct vs. indirect.
Today, our practice uses only the finest porcelain and resin to create the perfect smile. First, to purse that perfection, dental health is necessary. Your teeth and gums should be free of cavities and gum disease. Next, our team evaluates the imperfections using the most advanced technology available on the market, considering any chipped or broken teeth, gaps in your smile, tough to remove stains, and teeth that are too small or misshapen. We remove the minimum amount of natural tooth enamel to compensate for the coming corrective shell, then our staff makes a dental impression of your teeth that we use to create your customized, permanent veneers. Because the process usually takes several weeks, temporary veneers are available should the need or occasion arise.
Once we have created the veneers for you, we will schedule their installation and adjustment. Dr. Castellanos will check each one to ensure that we have matched the right color and shape, along with the shade, and each one is then carefully bonded to your permanent teeth using dental cement. When each veneer has been installed and we have verified that your bite is what it should be, any necessary adjustments are made, and you are sent along your way. Your teeth are fully functional, and you can flash the radiant smile you have always deserved the very same day. The color change is permanent and one to three shades lighter.
