Dental Veneers


Dental veneers are a popular cosmetic treatment for their ease and affordability. They offer a quick and effective solution to improve the appearance of teeth. These thin, custom made shells are bonded to the front side of the teeth to provide a natural looking solution. Veneers are used for a range of cosmetic concerns such as gaps, chips, cracks, or discoloration.

Dental veneers in Lacey offer a transformative solution for patients who want to enhance the appearance of their teeth. With their versatility, durability, and natural looking results, veneers have become a popular choice for patients who wish to have a more confident smile.

What Are Dental Veneers and How Do They Work?


Dental veneers are thin, tooth colored shells that are bonded to the front side of teeth. They are made from durable materials such as porcelain or composite resin, and are designed to cover a variety of imperfections including discoloration, chips, cracks, gaps, and misshapen teeth. Veneers are minimally invasive, and a great alternative to more extensive dental procedures such as crowns. This cosmetic procedure is a popular treatment used to help our patients achieve a beautiful, uniform smile.

When you choose porcelain veneers in Lacey, you're selecting a solution that effectively masks imperfections while maintaining a natural appearance. The semi-translucent quality of porcelain closely resembles natural tooth enamel, creating results that look authentic and blend seamlessly with your surrounding teeth.

Benefits of Choosing Porcelain Veneers


The primary benefit of dental veneers is their ability to improve the appearance of teeth. Veneers cover up stains and chips to create a flawless smile. In addition, veneers are stain resistant, and help maintain the brightness of teeth over time.

Veneers also offer practical advantages. We use them to close gaps between teeth, lengthen short teeth, and to adjust the shape and alignment of teeth in many other ways. This is especially beneficial for our patients who have mild to moderate orthodontic issues, but don't want to undergo the extensive treatment of braces.

Lastly, dental veneers are durable. With proper care and maintenance, veneers can last as long as 10 to 15 years before they require replacement. When you invest in porcelain veneers in Lacey, you're making a long-term commitment to your smile and your overall confidence.

The Dental Veneer Process


The procedure for dental veneers requires a few steps. First, we examine the patient's teeth, and discuss all of the details of their goals and expectations for the treatment. We may also take impressions, photographs, or x-rays to plan the design and placement of the veneers. Impressions of the teeth are sent to a dental laboratory, where the custom veneers are fabricated.

Second, we prepare the teeth by removing a thin layer of enamel, which allows the veneers to fit without sticking out or appearing bulky.

When we receive your custom veneers from the lab, we clean and etch the teeth to create a strong bond. The veneers are then secured in place with a special adhesive. Lastly, we make final adjustments to ensure a comfortable, aligned, and natural looking fit.

For patients seeking dental veneers in Lacey, the entire process usually requires two to three visits over the course of a few weeks.

Dental Veneer FAQ



How Do You Care for Your Dental Veneers?


We encourage you to practice good oral hygiene to get the most life out of your dental veneers, and maintain oral health overall. Brush at least twice daily, and floss every evening after your last meal. Avoid habits that can damage the veneers, such as chewing ice, biting other hard objects, or clenching or grinding your teeth.

Regular dental checkups and professional cleanings are essential to ensure the longevity of veneers. During these visits, we inspect the veneers and make adjustments or repairs as necessary.

How Long Do Veneers Last?


With proper care and maintenance, veneers can last many years without needing replacement. Several studies that have examined the lifespan of veneers has found that most veneers last about 10 to 15 years. However, their lifespan depends on the type and factors, such as how they are cared for. On average, porcelain veneers last between 10 to 20 years. For composite veneers, they can last three to five years.

What Are the Different Types of Veneers?


There are three main types of veneers: namely porcelain, composite, and no-prep veneers. The most common type is porcelain veneers and for a good reason. They are made of a thin, translucent material that produces a natural-looking result. Porcelain veneers are also highly stain-resistant and require minimal maintenance.

Another option is composite veneers, which are made from a resin-based material. Composite veneers are most preferred material for many patients because of their natural appearance, and they require less preparation than other veneers. They can be applied in one visit.

No-prep veneers are basically what they sound like. They require minimal to no preparation on your teeth before being applied. These types of veneers are made of a thin film, which is bonded directly to the enamel of your teeth with minimal alteration of the existing tooth structure.
