Teeth Whitening or Veneers? Apex Dental Will Help You Choose the Best Solution

Teeth whitening is an economical procedure that provides excellent results for most situations. For severely discolored teeth, whitening may not give the desired results and veneers are recommended to permanently brighten the smile. Additionally, when the teeth are misaligned or have gaps, veneers can make a significant difference in the face and smile.

For small chips and cracks, bonding is the most cost effective solution. When the problem is more severe or includes dullness, wear, spacing problems, uneven teeth or deep discoloration, our veneers may be the best solution.

While veneers are more expensive than bonding or whitening, the results are permanent and worth the investment.

The Veneers Process

Two types of veneers are commonly available: ceramic or porcelain, and composite resin veneers. The process is slightly different for each, but either way the first step in the process is planning your treatment. Pictures are taken using advanced digital imaging. Then, you and Dr. Fallah together will make a decision about how your finished smile will look.

When you are ready to proceed, a custom mold is taken of your teeth. This mold will be used to custom make the veneers. If you are getting resin veneers, Wesley Chapel dentist, Dr. Fallah may create them directly on your teeth. Porcelain veneers require fabrication in a dental laboratory. Once the veneers are made and ready to be installed, they are permanently bonded into place and your smile is ready for action.

The Procedure

When patients visit our Apex Dental offices, we will take an impression of their teeth so that the dental veneers can be created in a lab. They will be made to match the size, shape, and color of your teeth. This can take a week or more.

In order to have dental veneers placed, Dr. Fallah will first prepare your tooth by removing a portion of the enamel. This is necessary so that the veneer will lay flat and in line with your gum tissue. After the tooth has been prepared, a temporary veneer will be secured using removable glue. While wearing a temporary veneer, it is important to brush your teeth gently and avoid eating any foods that could push it out of place. Since it is secured by removable glue, it can be moved fairly easily.

When your permanent veneers are ready, you will come back into our Apex Dental offices so that Dr. Fallah can remove the temporary and ensure that the new veneer is a perfect fit. It is typically attached using a water based solution to see how it looks. If any adjustments need to be made, it will be done at this time. Otherwise, the tooth will be cleaned, and the dental veneer will be bonded to the tooth. Patients throughout Florida love how the results look. They are instant, and you can start flashing your smile right away.

After the Procedure

Your teeth will typically be sore for a few days after they have been prepared and after the permanent veneers are placed. During this time, you can take pain medication to help you stay comfortable. Our patients throughout the 33544 area also benefit from getting rest and using a cold compress to reduce any swelling. Dr. Fallah recommends that patients watch what they eat for a few days, and stick with foods that are soft. While there is a short recovery time when getting dental veneers, most patients believe the procedure is entirely worth it because in the end, you will have a beautiful smile.
