Porcelain Veneers consist of ultra-thin, resilient porcelain custom-made by a skilled dental laboratory to match the shape and color of your teeth.
What does getting porcelain veneers involve?
Getting porcelain veneers in Baltimore & Columbia usually requires two visits to complete the process, with little or no anesthesia required during the procedure. The teeth are prepared by lightly buffing and shaping the surface to allow for the thickness of the veneer. A mold or impression of the teeth is taken, and you and the dentist will then choose a shade (color).
The teeth will be cleansed with special liquids on the second visit to achieve a durable bond. Bonding cement is then placed between the tooth and veneer, and a special light beam is used to harden and set the bond. You will receive care instructions for veneers. Proper brushing, flossing, and regular dental visits will aid in the life of your new veneers.
