Porcelain veneers can help make your smile more attractive if
you have stains, chips, gaps, a misshapen tooth, or another minor
issue. Dr. Ala Din typically completes this popular cosmetic
dentistry procedure in just two sessions. If youre tired of not
showing your full smile or using over-the-counter remedies that
dont work, be sure to ask him about porcelain veneers.
The Process of Receiving Porcelain Veneers
If Dr. Din decides that youre a good candidate for this
procedure, the first thing he does is clean your teeth and
temporarily remove other restorations. In some cases, he may need
to remove a small amount of tooth enamel to ensure that the veneer
fits properly. This allows for a completely natural appearance
after the procedure and is typically less than one-eighth of a
millimeter of tooth enamel. Following these two steps, Dr. Din
takes an impression of the tooth to receive the veneer. He sends
this to our dental lab for the technicians to make your final
restoration. We can provide you with a temporary veneer in the
meantime if you are interested.
We will contact you to come in for a second appointment after
the laboratory returns your new porcelain veneer. Dr. Din places a
dental bonding agent on your tooth at this time. He then shapes and
polishes the wafer-thin veneer before placing it over the sticky
substance on the treated tooth. The last step is to shine a curing
light on the veneer to reduce the time required for it to harden in
place.
