Porcelain Veneers in Teaneck, NJ
Are you living with minor smile flaws like chipped or discolored teeth? Maybe gaps or spaces between your teeth make you feel self-conscious? Or perhaps you hide your smile in photos because teeth that are oddly shaped make your smile less symmetrical?
Did you know porcelain veneers can eliminate all these concerns and create the bright, beautiful, camera-ready smile you’ve always wanted?
What Are Porcelain Veneers?
A dental veneer is a micro-thin sliver of porcelain that Dr. Shteingart customizes to cover the front surface of your teeth. A veneer covers your tooth to change its color, shape, and size, and we can use several veneers to redesign your smile.
Dr. Shteingart bonds the veneer directly to your tooth, providing strength and exceptional aesthetics with a flush fit and flawless finish to your tooth. He’s used veneers to enhance hundreds of patients’ smiles, and he works closely with you to achieve the results you want.
Caring for Porcelain Veneers
The good news is that veneers are very simple to take care of, and there’s no need to change your home care routine.
Brushing twice a day and flossing once keep your teeth healthy and plaque-free. You’ll want to avoid whitening toothpaste as it can be abrasive and could scratch the surface of your veneers.
You’ll also want to avoid activities like chewing on ice cubes or biting directly into certain hard foods, just as you would avoid with your natural teeth. Instead, cut hard foods like apples and carrots into small pieces to enjoy them to avoid fracturing your natural teeth or veneers.
The Process for Completing Porcelain Veneers at Plaza Dentistry
You can enjoy your new smile with porcelain veneers in Teaneck, NJ, in about two weeks once you decide to proceed with treatment.
The procedure requires two visits to Plaza Dentistry. During the first visit, Dr. Shteingart prepares your teeth for their new restorations, takes impressions of your smile for the dental lab, and fabricates temporary veneers for you to wear until you receive your final restorations.
It typically takes our trusted dental lab around two to three weeks to complete your handcrafted veneers. When they’re ready, you’ll return to Plaza Dentistry to have Dr. Shteingart permanently place them and make any needed adjustments to ensure your bite functions properly.
