A Step By Step Look At The Veneers Procedure

If you are contemplating getting dental veneers it is best that you look at a step by step guide. What is the procedure like and how does it work? It is very important to you as the patient to understand the number of steps involved in this procedure.

Are you a good candidate?

In order to find out if you are a good candidate for this procedure, you have to visit a dentist’s office. If there is decay or gum disease, veneers will not be recommended until these teeth issues are first dealt with. If you are a healthy adult who wants cosmetic adjustments, you will be given veneers as your first option.

Why people opt for veneers in Dubai?

Dental veneers in Dubai are high quality products, natural in appearance, durable and resistant, translucent and attractive and will last for years if cared for properly.

The initial consultation at the dentist

For the veneers treatment you will need to visit your dentist’s office for two appointments. Before the veneers are prepared, a dentist will do a deep clean to your teeth to remove any stains from the surface. Next, a shade guide will be used to determine the colour selection that will best match your teeth. Once the necessary information has been gathered it will be sent to a dental lab to create the perfect fitting veneers.

What happens during the application?

Before fixing the veneers, your dentist will modify the enamel on the front surface of your teeth. This is to provide veneers a solid base. An enamel alteration will be necessary but it will not be more than 0.3 mm. You will be given an adequate anesthetic to ensure you do not experience any discomfort. Certain dentists will suggest temporary veneers until the permanent veneers are ready. This is to help you get a natural feel of your teeth. Temporary veneers will also protect your teeth if the permanent ones are not yet ready.

The veneers are ready

Once the lab has created permanent veneers they will be bonded to the front surface of your teeth. As the last step, your dentist will perform finishing and polishing procedure to ensure the best possible veneers results.
