Transform Your Dental Appearance With Porcelain Veneers

Porcelain veneers are a transformative option for those wishing to cover up any dental insecurities that hold you back from showing your authentic smile. These custom-crafted porcelain teeth veneers offer a natural-looking solution to improve the appearance of discolored, chipped, or misaligned teeth. At Harris Dental Cape Cod, serving Barnstable, Centerville, Dennis, and Hyannis, MA, we provide expert care in designing and fitting teeth porcelain veneers, ensuring you leave our office with a smile that truly shines.

The Difference Between Composite vs. Porcelain Veneers

Understanding the distinctions is important when considering composite veneers vs. porcelain veneers. While composite veneers are more affordable and quicker to apply, they do not last as long or offer the same durability as porcelain veneer teeth. Porcelain veneers are highly resistant to stains and wear, making them a long-term investment for your appearance and confidence. Patients can enjoy a beautiful, lasting result with porcelain veneers.

The Process of Getting Porcelain Veneers

The porcelain veneer process begins with a consultation with one of our dentists to discuss your goals and assess your teeth. After creating a custom plan, we prepare your teeth by removing a small amount of enamel for a perfect fit. Impressions are taken to craft your veneers, ensuring they match the color and shape of your natural teeth. Once ready, the veneers are bonded securely, giving you a beautiful, natural-looking smile with precision and comfort in mind.

What to Expect from Veneer Treatment

The first step in creating your dream smile is a consultation. We want to understand what exactly you wish you could change about your smile and how the appearance of your teeth affects your day-to-day life. We’ll collect detailed scans and digital diagnostic images to ensure your teeth are healthy and stable and create a plan to create a smile you’ll love.

Your smile is unique, and your porcelain veneers should be custom-designed to suit it. That’s why it’s essential to see cosmetic dentistry specialists like ours. We’ll design each of your veneer teeth to match your skin tone, gumline, smile shape, facial features, and personal preferences for how you want your new smile to look.

Porcelain veneers are an excellent option for improving the appearance of your teeth, but there are some issues they can’t solve. Before we create your beautiful new smile, you may need other treatments to ensure your teeth and gums are as healthy as possible. If you have active gum disease, cavities, or fractures that compromise the stability of your teeth, we’ll take care of those first.

Once your oral health is in great shape, we’ll make space for your porcelain veneers by carefully adjusting the shape of your enamel. We’ll take new scans and impressions, which we’ll use to create your permanent restorations. In the meantime, you’ll wear lightweight temporary veneers to feel confident while waiting for your gorgeous final result.

Once your ceramic veneers have been created, you’ll return to our office for one final visit. We’ll test your new smile and make any slight adjustments to be sure it looks perfect. Then, we’ll attach your porcelain veneers with intense, long-lasting dental adhesives. With regular maintenance visits to keep your teeth and gums healthy, you’ll be able to love your new smile for years to come!
