This is a very simple procedure; the dentist will take impressions (mould) of your teeth and these will then be sent to the laboratory. Our technician will make a cast of your teeth using the supplied impressions (moulds). Dental wax is then applied to the cast, to show how the final veneers will look.<\/p>\n<p>If you decide that veneers are for you, two appointments are then needed. The first appointment is when the dentist prepares the teeth and then a second is to fit the veneers.<\/p>\n<h3>The Preparation appointment<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>The dentist will give you a local anaesthetic to numb the tooth and the surrounding gum.<\/li>\n<li>A small amount of tooth is removed from the front surface of your tooth to make room for the veneers. The dentist will do this using a fast hand drill.<\/li>\n<li>An impression (mould) is taken of your teeth using special dental &#8220;putty&#8221;. The putty is placed into an impression tray; they are both then inserted into your mouth and pushed onto your teeth in order to take an impression. Once the dental putty is set the impression will be removed. An impression is also taken of the opposing teeth, so the technician can see how you bite together.<\/li>\n<li>The dentist may fit temporary veneers to protect the teeth whilst your veneers are being fabricated.<\/li>\n<li>The impression (mould) of your teeth is sent to the Dental Laboratory where each veneer will be handcrafted to create your new smile. This process can take between two and three weeks.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>The Fit Appointment<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Your temporary veneers will be removed and your teeth will be washed to remove any remaining cement.<\/li>\n<li>Your new veneers will be temporarily placed using a special paste which will allow the dentist to make any adjustments that are required and to make sure that you are happy with the appearance.<\/li>\n<li>The veneers will then be removed and the tooth surface prepared for the dental adhesive. The veneers will be permanently cemented in place to create the beautiful smile you have been waiting for.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Looking after your veneers<\/h3>\n<p>Veneers can last a long time but a lot depends on how you take care of them. You must maintain good oral hygiene brushing and flossing twice a day, also have 6 monthly examinations with your dentists.<\/p>\n<p>Habits that damaged your natural teeth, like biting pens and pencils, opening bottle tops with your teeth and biting your nails will also damage your veneers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A veneer is a thin layer of tooth coloured material which is placed over your natural tooth to mask the underlying enamel.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":326,"parent":341,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.5 -
