See Your Dentist in Arlington for Porcelain Veneers

Dr. Gray tends to see two kinds of patients—those who are happy to share their smile and those who prefer to hide their smiles. If you shy away from a toothy grin, or if you always use your hand to cover up your smile, then maybe it’s time to change your smile completely with porcelain veneers. Dr. Gray, your dentist in Arlington, and his team have helped many people just like you overcome the shame of having teeth that are unsightly. Read on to learn more about porcelain veneers, the imperfections they eliminate and the process involved in dramatically improving your whole look!

What Imperfections Can Porcelain Veneers Correct?

Do you look at your smile and think that there are just too many things wrong with your teeth to even begin making a change? In that case, porcelain veneers could be just right for you. Cosmetic dentistry offers a number of treatments to rebuild or reshape teeth. A chipped tooth can be mended with cosmetic bonding; a broken tooth may need a dental crown; crooked teeth could use orthodontic treatment; and the list continues. However, when you choose porcelain veneers, those other treatments are no longer necessary; with just one treatment you’ll be able to conceal all of those major and minor imperfections and reveal a smile that is natural and beautiful.

Who Is a Candidate for Porcelain Veneers?

Most people are qualified candidates for porcelain veneers. However, Dr. Gray will first need to examine your teeth and gums to make sure your oral health is optimal. Before having any cosmetic dentistry treatment, we need to take care of problems such as cavities or gum disease.

How Do I Receive Veneers?

You’ll need to make two appointments for porcelain veneers in Arlington. At the first, Dr. Gray will need to remove a very thin layer of enamel from the teeth that will have veneers. This is an important step to ensure that your veneers are comfortable and look natural in your mouth. At the conclusion of this appointment, we’ll take an impression of your teeth and give you a set of temporary veneers that we make right in our office. These are for you to wear while your permanent set are handcrafted in our cosmetic dental lab.

About two weeks later, you’ll return to see Dr. Gray. He’ll remove the temporaries and prepare to adhere your customized veneers to your teeth. Once in place, your porcelain veneers will give you a smile that you’re happy to share rather than hide!
