If you’re too embarrassed to smile due to discolored, chipped, malformed or misaligned teeth, this can rob you of a trait that makes you unique, deflate your self-confidence and even affect your personal and professional life. Porcelain veneers in Phoenix, AZ are a minimally invasive method for correcting these problems and restoring your smile zone and confidence. Since being introduced in the early 1980s, veneers have become an increasingly popular option for beautifying less than perfect teeth. Dental veneers are thin shells of tooth-colored porcelain or composite placed over the facial surfaces of front teeth. The skilled cosmetic dentists at Phoenix Implant Clinic have helped countless patients close gaps, even out tooth length, cover dark stains and create more balanced smiles with veneers.
If you’re considering veneers, our team will check to make sure you’re a good candidate. Criteria include being in good oral health, moderately straight teeth, no history of teeth grinding or clenching (bruxism) and proper oral hygiene. As a cosmetic dentistry treatment, porcelain veneers aren’t intended to resolve functional issues, such as a bad bite (malocclusion), serious misalignment or fractures. But veneers are an ideal option for restoring a bright white appearance to teeth that are resistant to professional whitening methods. Customized porcelain veneers blend in beautifully with other teeth in terms of color, shape and translucence. Studies show that many years after getting veneers, their dazzling white appearance endures with routine dental care and good oral health habits. This is even the case even if you’re a coffee or tea drinker. Porcelain veneers in Phoenix, AZ are an optimal solution for resolving any of the following issues:
The process starts by creating a wax mock-up. Taking your new smile for a “test drive” is especially important when we’re lengthening teeth to improve phonetics and speech. We also offer smile stimulation technology to provide a sneak smile preview of your likely veneer results! During your first visit, one of our cosmetic dentists removes a few millimeters of the front surface of your tooth enamel. This ensures that your custom dental veneers fit naturally and comfortably over your existing teeth. Next, we take impressions of your modified teeth, which are sent to the dental lab to fabricate your veneers in the most ideal size, shape, and color to beautify your smile. Then we secure temporary veneers to the front of your teeth that you’ll wear until the final restorations come back from the lab. When the final veneers are ready, our team verifies the fit and makes certain you’re happy with their appearance. Following a cleaning, the veneer is bonded to the tooth with a special dental cement and hardened with a blue curing light.
Porcelain veneers are about 0.5mm, which requires tooth preparation and a local anesthetic and/or sedation to minimize any sensitivity, as well as placement of acrylic temporaries. At Phoenix Implant Clinic, we also offer Lumineers that are digitally designed to be ultra-thin at just 0.3mm (about the thickness of a contact lens). This enables seamless application over your natural teeth without removal of tooth enamel. Lumineers® are custom made exclusively by the DenMat Lab in Lompoc, CA by highly skilled technicians who specialize in crafting esthetic dental veneers.
When you choose Phoenix Implant Clinic for veneers in Phoenix, AZ, our process is quick, simple and painless—and the best part is that you can achieve a movie-star smile in two dental visits. As a cosmetic treatment, veneers aren’t covered by insurance. But we think everyone deserves the transformative benefits they provide, so we partner with third-party financing companies to help make this transformative procedure more affordable. When you look in the mirror and see your dazzling pearly whites reflecting back at you, you’ll instantly know you made the right decision!
