Dental Veneers
At Peak Dental Care in Centennial, Colorado, Dr. Scott Lindsay and his talented staff provide a wide range of dental care services, including the placement of dental veneers. We custom-make these thin shells for each patient to cover and improve the appearance of stained, chipped, or misaligned teeth. We can use dental veneers to close gaps between teeth or make them appear longer. Dr. Lindsay’s team expertly places this cosmetic dentistry procedure to give you the perfect smile you’ve always wanted.
What Are Dental Veneers?
We design dental veneers as thin shells made from porcelain or composite resin to cover the front surface of your teeth. We can use them to correct aesthetic issues such as stain discoloration, chips, cracks, misshapen or crooked teeth, gaps between teeth, or worn-down enamel. Dr. Scott Lindsay at Peak Dental Care in Centennial, Colorado, takes impressions and measurements to custom craft dental veneers for each patient.
What are the Benefits of Dental Veneers?
One of the most significant benefits of dental veneers is that they provide a quick and effective solution to many cosmetic issues with minimal invasion into your natural tooth structure. Minimal invasion means less drilling and preparation than other options, such as crowns or bridges, which require more extensive removal of tooth structure to fit correctly on your teeth.
Additionally, unlike natural tooth enamel which can wear down over time due to eating habits and everyday use, dental veneers have a relatively long lifespan if cared for properly through regular maintenance visits with Dr. Lindsay’s office at Peak Dental Care Centennial, Colorado.
What to Expect When Getting Dental Veneers
Schedule a consultation with Dr. Scott Lindsay at Peak Dental Care to start your dental veneer journey. He will take an impression or scan of your current smile and discuss any specific concerns you may have so that he can create an individualized treatment plan tailored specifically for you and your goals for your final results.
After completing this step, Dr. Lindsay will prep your teeth by removing a thin layer from the front surface, adjusting the amount based on the material you choose. We may place temporary veneers while the lab crafts your permanent ones.
The lab will match the shape, size, color, and texture discussed during the consultation stage. Once the permanent veneers return from the lab, we will bond them securely onto the prepared surfaces using strong bonding agents. In some cases, if no additional prep work is needed, we can attach the veneers directly without removing any existing tooth structure.
Aftercare and Maintenance for Your New Smile
After successful placement at peak dental care in Centennial, a follow-up visit is usually recommended about 4 – 6 weeks post-op for a checkup. During the checkup, we evaluate bite, aesthetics, alignment, etc. Any adjustments needed should be made at that time before leaving our office.
It’s also essential for patients to know that not all materials used for crafting these restorations have the same life spans. Good oral health, including brushing twice daily plus flossing once daily, followed up with regularly scheduled cleanings every six months plus yearly exams, helps extend their life span significantly.
With proper maintenance, most people find their new smiles last anywhere from 5-10+ years! It’s crucial to continue using non-abrasive toothpaste and soft bristle brushes to help preserve the underlying bond even further.
