Veneers are a popular way to address several cosmetic dental concerns, and our veneers dentist in San Francisco has excellent results using veneers. Typically, you will visit our office three times for your veneers.
• Your initial visit is your consultation where our San Francisco cosmetic dentist will discuss your goals and the options available to meet these goals.
• During your second appointment, our dentist will prep your teeth for the veneers. This is a painless procedure that involves removing a very thin layer of enamel to make space for the veneers to fit naturally against your gumline with no gaps. Additionally, a mold of your teeth is necessary so the dental lab can create the veneers perfectly.
• The third visit takes place once the dental lab sends the veneers back to our office. This generally takes about ten days-two weeks. Our dentist will measure and test the veneers to be sure the fit is good and then affix the veneers to your teeth.
Dental veneers are useful for treating a variety of dental issues including:
• Teeth with permanent stains or discoloration
• Misaligned teeth
• Misshaped teeth
• Closing gaps between teeth
• Teeth that show signs of being chipped, cracked, or otherwise broken
• Teeth that are worn down with time and use or because of tooth grinding or from clenching and gritting your teeth
