Why Choose Porcelain Veneers?

Porcelain veneers offer tons of benefits, including:

  • Stain resistance: They won’t discolor like natural teeth.
  • Minimal prep work: The dentist needs to remove less enamel compared to other treatments.
  • Seamless blending: They’re color-matched to fit in perfectly with your natural teeth.
  • Low maintenance: They don’t need special care. Just brush and floss like usual.
  • Long-lasting results: They’re a durable and natural-looking solution to many cosmetic issues.

With their durability, veneers are a great long-term choice to restore both the look and function of your teeth. If you’re ready to transform your smile, call our team at Foxhall Smiles today.

What Can Porcelain Veneers Fix?

Porcelain veneers are one of the most versatile cosmetic treatments out there. They can tackle a variety of dental concerns:

  • Stubborn stains: Professional whitening is great for most stains, but some stains just won’t budge. Veneers can cover those spots completely, and we can match them to the shade of white you want.
  • Chips and cracks: Over time, teeth naturally wear down and get small chips or cracks. Veneers can cover these imperfections and make your smile look years younger.
  • Minor alignment issues: Have slightly crooked teeth or small gaps? Veneers can give you a straight, even smile without needing braces or aligners.

Every veneer is custom-made to fit your teeth perfectly. Dr. Catanzano crafts them to match the size, shape, and color you need to achieve a natural-looking result.

The Porcelain Veneers Process

Getting veneers is a simple and straightforward process. First, Dr. Catanzano will check your teeth and gums to ensure they’re healthy and ready for treatment. If you qualify, he will begin the prep work. To create space for the veneers, he will remove a thin layer of enamel from your teeth.

Next, we’ll take molds of your teeth and work with a dental lab to create your custom veneers. The lab will also match the color and design to suit your smile perfectly. Once your veneers are ready, we’ll clean your teeth and carefully bond each veneer in place.

Then we’ll check your bite and make any small tweaks to ensure a comfortable and natural fit. Once your veneers are in place, you’ll leave our office with a brand-new smile you can feel proud of.

Porcelain Veneers FAQs

Do you have questions about porcelain veneers? We’ve got the answers!

Do Porcelain Veneers Hurt?

Not really! The process is usually pain-free. We numb the area before starting, so you won’t feel anything during the procedure. You might feel a little discomfort if you have sensitive teeth, but it’s nothing too serious and won’t last long.

Can Porcelain Veneers Get Cavities?

Nope! The veneers themselves can’t get cavities. Your teeth shouldn’t decay under them as long as the dentist properly places them. It’s rare for cavities to happen with veneers, so you’re in good hands with Dr. Catanzano.

Do I Still Need to Wear a Retainer After Getting Veneers?

Yes, you should keep wearing your retainer if your dentist recommends it. Veneers don’t stop your teeth from shifting, so sticking to your retainer routine is important for keeping everything in place.

How Long do Porcelain Veneers Last?

Veneers can last 10-12 years with good care. Remember that once you get veneers, you’ll always need a restoration on those teeth since a small amount of enamel is removed during the process.

Do Porcelain Veneers Stain?

Porcelain veneers don’t stain! They’re super resistant to things like coffee, wine, and other drinks that can discolor natural teeth. So, your veneers will keep looking bright and fresh for years.
