Types of Porcelain Veneers:

There are two main types of veneers

• Composite Veneers: These composite veneers are manufactured by our dentist and applied directly to the teeth. It requires a single appointment for this procedure which brings back your smile and hides any imperfections.
• Porcelain Veneers: Porcelain Veneers serve same as composite veneers. They are made in the laboratory by measuring the tooth surface of patients. It requires two appointments:
• To take the teeth impression and prepare the veneer in the lab.
• To place the veneers onto the teeth.

Porcelain Veneers Procedure:

Before starting Dental Veneers in Westside El Paso TX our cosmetic dentist will examine your teeth and discuss what type of procedure will involve. To prepare a veneer for your tooth an impression of your mouth and teeth are taken. This impression is sent to the dental laboratory to construct your veneers.

Before starting the procedure our dentist will use a local anesthetic to numb the area. Your teeth will be cleaned and polished which will roughen the teeth surface for a strong bonding process. Special cement will be applied to the veneers and then placed on your teeth. Once all the veneers are placed properly, our cosmetic dentist in El Paso TX will apply a special light beam on the veneers which will activate the chemical present in the cement.

Just like other dental treatments, dental veneers also require a follow-up visit to examine your veneer's placement and to check how your gums are responding to the placement of the veneers.
