What are porcelain veneers?

Porcelain veneers are shell-like, artificial cosmetic placements that are fitted directly to the front of the teeth. Made from medical-grade porcelain, our veneers are durable, highly stain-resistant, and tailored to match the natural color of healthy teeth. At Made Ya Smile Kingwood, our team customizes your porcelain veneer experience to conceal unique misalignments and discolorations and to provide you with a new, gorgeous smile.

Why should I choose porcelain veneers to improve my smile?

Why are patients choosing porcelain veneers? Let’s take a look at some of the numerous benefits:

Easy measurement and assessment of your current teeth
Little to no discomfort during fittings
Durable, long-lasting results
No recovery time
Stain-resistant restorations
Customized, natural-looking outcomes

Candidates for porcelain veneers

Ideal candidates for porcelain veneers include men and women who:

Have generally healthy gums and teeth
Have crooked, gapped, or misshapen teeth
Have stained or discolored teeth

Our team will thoroughly examine your teeth, gums, and additional oral structures to determine if you can safely be fitted for porcelain veneers. Patients with active decay, gum disease, and other specific conditions may need to participate in other dental treatments prior to receiving their veneers.

What the treatment process looks like

Patients come to our office where we reshape the front of your teeth and strip a small amount of enamel. We’ll take digital impressions of your mouth and send the results to our laboratory where your porcelain veneers are fabricated. To protect your teeth, our team will send you home with temporary veneers and then you’ll return to retrieve your porcelain veneers within 1-2 weeks. A bonding cement is lightly applied to the teeth to hold the porcelain veneers in place. After your final fitting, you’re free to return home.

What to do after I receive my porcelain veneers

Once your porcelain veneers are finished, you may begin eating and drinking normally. Patients are encouraged to avoid hard or sticky foods, especially during the first few days, to allow the veneers to properly settle and adhere to the teeth. Brush and floss like you would your natural teeth.

How long do porcelain veneers last?

With the proper care and hygiene habits, porcelain veneers have the potential to last for 10-30 years. Veneers are considered a permanent cosmetic solution; however, the underlying teeth can still decay or break down which compromises overall results.

How to care for my porcelain veneers at home

Make your new porcelain veneers last by applying the following tips:

Brush and floss your teeth twice daily
Eat nutritious meals
Avoid eating hard, sticky, or chewy foods
Limit your sugar intake
Use mouth rinse regularly to remove tartar and bacteria
Attend routine dental check-ups and cleanings
