If they will eventually need to be replaced, are veneers really worth it?
Although they will typically need to be replaced at some point in your lifetime, veneers have shown outstanding success rates. One study by the British Dental Association showed that up to 95 percent of veneers were still in good condition after a decade.
Veneers are more expensive than other procedures, such as dental bonding, but can deliver the natural-looking, highly aesthetic results you deserve for many more years.
Looking for a way to dramatically enhance the appearance of your teeth and transform your entire smile? Dr. Patrick Tanner is proud to offer elite cosmetic dentistry services including custom-made porcelain veneers a his South Ogden, Utah practice. Porcelain veneers are thin porcelain shells that cover the front surface of your teeth, instantly transforming your smile from ordinary to extraordinary.
Dr. Tanner performs a thorough examination of each patient's mouth before installing porcelain veneers. During the exam, he will evaluate the condition of your teeth using various techniques and top-notch technology. For some people who have excess gum tissue, Dr. Tanner recommends a gum lift procedure before receiving porcelain veneers. Before creating your custom porcelain veneers, we make note of what you want to change about your smile.
Receiving porcelain veneers requires two visits. During your first visit we will prep your gums and teeth for the treatment. Dr. Tanner takes your existing features into account to create a seamless smile that complements your smile, as well as your entire face. A thin layer of your tooth enamel will be removed from your tooth's front surface to make room for the veneer. Next, Dr. Tanner will take a mold of your modified tooth, which will be sent to a lab to guide the creation of your veneer.
During your second appointment, Dr. Tanner will install the wafer-thin porcelain coverings by bonding them directly onto your teeth using a safe cement formula. Porcelain veneers are one of the most requested treatments at our South Ogden, Utah dental facility. They provide a beautiful, natural look, and immediately transform your smile.
