Prescott Porcelain Veneers

Prescott Dental Arts offers beautiful porcelain veneers for Prescott, Arizona

What Are Porcelain Veneers?

A porcelain veneer is a thin piece of porcelain that is bonded to the front of a tooth to help improve its appearance. Porcelain veneers are a popular procedure that is used to fix imperfections with teeth without removing a lot of tooth structure. Unlike full crowns, porcelain veneers do not require the removal of a lot of tooth structure, because they are bonded. There are many situations where veneers are a great option. Some of these include: 

  • discolored or stained teeth
  • chipped teeth
  • small teeth 
  • oversized teeth
  • crooked teeth
  • gaps between teeth

Porcelain veneers can be used to give a person a beautiful smile they have always wanted. Porcelain veneers are not only beautiful restorations they are also firm and resilient. Veneers can be long-lasting if taken care of through good oral hygiene and routine cleanings and checkups. If a person is looking to change the look, color, or shape of their teeth through the use of veneers Prescott Dental Arts can help.

Veneer Consultation

At our Prescott AZ office, we offer an initial consultation for patients who want to know more about veneers. The first step to determining if veneers are the best option is to consult with our dentist Dr. Herbert. At the consultation appointment, the patient has the opportunity to explain to Dr. Herbert what goals they have for their teeth. During the consultation, Dr. Herbert and the patient will design together with a treatment plan that will help them reach their goals. 

One way Dr. Herbert determines the best treatment plan for each patient is by doing a smile analysis of the teeth and gums. Sometimes cosmetic imaging or a diagnostic mock-up may be used to show the patient what veneers will look like in their mouth. All these steps will help the patient decide if veneers will help them achieve the smile they are looking for. Within a few appointments, a patient can have the beautiful smile they have always wanted.

The Hows and Whys of Porcelain Veneers

At Prescott Dental Arts, we can usually have veneers completed in two or more visits. For porcelain veneers, Dr. Herbert prepares the teeth by removing a thin layer of enamel making room for the veneer. Typically only one millimeter of tooth enamel is removed to create enough room for the veneer to seat properly in the mouth.

After the teeth are prepared impressions are taken and sent to a lab where the veneers will be fabricated. The patient will wear a temporary until the veneers are completed. Once the veneers return from the lab Dr. Herbert will bond the veneers permanently. The bond helps to strengthen the veneers, allowing the patient to chew and eat with ease.

If you would like to consult with us about porcelain veneers, we invite you to contact our office to schedule an initial consultation.
