What Smile Flaws Can Veneers Correct?
Cosmetic dentistry offers several procedures to improve your smile’s appearance. One of the most popular of these is veneers. Veneers can transform a dull, damaged or flawed smile into a picture-perfect smile in as little as two dental appointments. Dr. Naila Bryan from Main Line Dental Health & Wellness is your go-to dentist for veneers near you in the Bryn Mawr and Wayne, Pennsylvania area. No doubt you have questions about this cosmetic treatment. We answer those questions here:
What are veneers?
Veneers are thin, porcelain shells used to cover minor imperfections in your teeth to improve your smile’s esthetics. Porcelain veneers are custom-made in a lab to match the features of your natural teeth. Once bonded in place, they blend in seamlessly with your smile to give it a gorgeous, unblemished appearance.
How can veneers be used?
One of the greatest benefits of veneers is their versatility. Multiple tooth flaws can be corrected in just one dental treatment. Veneers can be used to cover dull or stained teeth to whiten your smile. Chipped and cracked teeth can be repaired with veneers. Veneers can be used to close tooth gaps or reshape irregular teeth to make your smile more aesthetically pleasing. Veneers can also improve the placement of slightly crooked teeth to make your smile appear straight and even.
What’s the process for getting teeth veneers?
Getting veneers is easier than most people think. The process starts with a consultation to evaluate your smile and plan your treatment. Together, we’ll decide how many veneers to use and where to place them. Then, to accommodate the veneers, we’ll prep your teeth by shaving off a thin layer of enamel. Your restorations will be custom-crafted in a lab using impressions of your prepped teeth as blueprints. When your veneers are ready, we’ll bond them in place to finalize your treatment.
Does the process hurt?
No. The veneer process is relatively painless. We can use a mild anesthetic when prepping your teeth to keep you comfortable for this stage of your procedure. You may feel slight sensitivity after your veneers are placed, but this will wear off quickly.

How long do veneers last?
If you take good care of your teeth, porcelain veneers can last up to 15 years. You care for veneers like you care for your teeth, by brushing them twice daily, flossing daily and seeing your dentist every six months for routine cleanings. Avoid eating hard foods or chewing on ice to prevent premature wear of your veneers or harming your teeth.
Can the porcelain veneer process be reversed?
Getting porcelain veneers is a permanent commitment, as tooth enamel is removed for this procedure, and that enamel can’t be replaced. Therefore, the process is irreversible.
