Porcelain Veneers
Transform Your Smile With Dr. Aleksanyan
Veneers are thin shells that can be placed over the surface of your teeth to cover cosmetic flaws. They’re made from durable, tooth-colored porcelain to ensure a stunning appearance and long-lasting results.
Dr. Aleksanyan will customize your veneers so they blend in seamlessly with your surrounding teeth. Depending on your needs, veneers can be used to treat the following:
- Chipped or cracked teeth
- Stained or discolored teeth
- Crooked or misshapen teeth
- Gaps between teeth
The Veneers Process
Enhancing your smile with veneers is a quick and easy process that only requires two appointments. During your first visit, Dr. Aleksanyan will take an impression of your teeth so your veneers can be customized to match their unique appearance. She’ll also gently buff and re-surface your teeth to ensure a perfect fit.
Typically, it will take about two weeks to prepare your veneers. Once they’re ready, you can return to our office and Dr. Aleksanyan will bond them to your teeth with a strong dental resin. Finally, she’ll shine a specialized light on your teeth to solidify the bond.
Frequently Asked Questions About Veneers
Is the veneers procedure painful?
Dr. Aleksanyan will apply a local anesthetic to numb your teeth before the procedure, so you won’t feel any pain. You may experience some mild discomfort when your treatment is complete, but this will dissipate within a few hours.
How long do veneers last?
With proper care, veneers can last for seven to fifteen years. To help extend their life, avoid habits such as biting your fingernails or chewing ice cubes.
Does dental insurance cover the cost of my veneers?
Unfortunately, veneers are considered a cosmetic treatment so insurance rarely covers them. However, there are some exceptions depending on your specific plan and provider.
What if my veneer falls off or is damaged?
If your veneer falls out or is damaged in any way, don’t attempt to fix it yourself. Just try to store it safely and keep it clean until you can visit our office.
How do I take care of my veneers?
Veneers can be cared for just like natural teeth, with daily brushing and flossing. No special tools or cleaning solutions are necessary.
Do veneers work for crooked teeth?
Yes! Veneers are frequently used to help crooked teeth appear straighter.
