These beautifully crafted veneers can also be used to correct teeth that are worn down, chipped, broken, uneven, or misaligned. If you feel that <a href="http://reservedentalgroup.com/boca-raton-dentist-services/boca-raton-porcelain-veneers"><strong>porcelain veneers</strong></a> are right for you, there is generally a three-visit process that you must go through.</p>
<p>Initially, you will need to have a dental consultation, where you would discuss your dental concerns as well as the desired results you wish to achieve. You may need to have x-rays taken to determine if your teeth are healthy enough to be restored with veneers. Your dentist will compose a treatment plan for you, as well as answer any of your questions regarding the procedure and final costs.</p>
<p>On your second visit, your dentist will carefully remove a thin layer of tooth structure, which would be close to the thickness of the veneer (or veneers) to be applied. Since tooth preparation is minimal, sometimes little or anesthesia is required. Next, your dentist will take a mold of the prepared area, using a high quality impression material that would capture every precise detail of the preparations. After that, a shade guide will be held up to your mouth so that you and your dentist can pick out the perfect hue for your veneers. Your dental impression, along with your personalized shade and other important information will be sent off to a dental lab. It can take up to two weeks for the lab to deliver the veneers to your dental office.</p>
<p>On your final visit, your dentist will temporarily place the veneers over the previously prepared areas to examine the fit and shade. Once it’s determined that the fit and shade are perfect for you, the prepared area will then be cleaned, polished, and etched, prior to final cementation. Once the veneers are cemented into place, a special curing light will be held up to the veneers in order to activate the chemical process needed to harden the cement. Finally, your dentist will carefully remove any excess cement as well as make any necessary adjustments.</p>
<p>Your dentist may ask you to return in a few weeks to evaluate how your gums are responding to your newly-placed veneers. <strong>Need porcelain veneers in Boca Raton, FL? Contact Dr. Huber today at 561-852-7773.</strong></p>
