Veneers<\/a> are a simple, effective cosmetic treatment that can give you the smile of your dreams. Within just two appointments, you can leave the dentist\u2019s office with a completely different set of teeth than what you walked in with.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That can be a little bit hard to believe for some people. If you\u2019re curious about this procedure, here\u2019s what your dentist will do to fit you for veneers, step-by-step.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Step 1: Consultation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The first thing you\u2019ll do is talk to your dentist about what exactly it is you\u2019re looking for. You\u2019ll cover which teeth you want to be treated, what problems you want to be fixed, and what color you want your veneers to be. If you\u2019re looking to get back to a smile you had when you were younger, it may be helpful to bring in older pictures of yourself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 2: Modeling<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Your dentist will make a model of your teeth, and then use wax to mockup exactly what you want your new smile to look like. Your dentist might also use plastic to create a set of temporary veneers that can go over your teeth. They\u2019ll attach them using weak cement, which will give you the opportunity to check with friends and family about the quality of your smile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 3: Preparation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Once you\u2019ve settled on what you want your smile to look like, your dentist will prepare your teeth for your permanent veneers. This will usually involve trimming a little bit of enamel to make room for the veneers. They\u2019ll usually have you wear a set of temporaries until your next appointment in order to protect your teeth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 4: Lab<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Your dentist will take an impression of your prepared teeth and send them, along with designs for your veneers, to a lab to be produced. The process will take a few weeks to complete. During that time you\u2019ll be wearing your temporary veneers, which will give you additional time to figure out what you do and do not like. You can send these notes to your dentist, who will pass them on to the lab.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 5: Cement<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

When the veneers are complete, you\u2019ll come into the office for your final appointment. Your dentist will prepare your teeth with a mild acidic solution and then attach the veneers with a cement strong enough to last for up to a decade.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After that, you\u2019re done! You\u2019ll leave the dentist\u2019s office after that last appointment with a smile you can have confidence in. Only you and your dentist will know about the careful planning that made it so beautiful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
