Burke, Fairfax and Fairfax Station, VA
Your smile plays a crucial role in your overall appearance, and modern cosmetic dentistry offers fantastic ways to enhance it. One of the most effective and versatile treatments available is veneers. Dr. Pam Marzban uses veneers to help patients achieve the smile of their dreams. Let’s delve into how veneers can revolutionize your smile and what you can expect from this transformative treatment.
What Are Veneers and How Do They Work?
The concept of veneers was first introduced nearly a century ago by Dr. Charles Pincus, originally created to alter actors’ smiles on film sets. Today, veneers are a popular option for anyone looking to enhance their smile. Modern veneers are crafted from high-quality dental porcelain, a material known for its beauty and durability. This porcelain resists surface stains and mimics the natural look of teeth. Dr. Marzban, an experienced cosmetic dentist, can apply veneers to individual teeth or cover all visible teeth surfaces for a comprehensive smile makeover.
Why Are Veneers So Popular?
Natural Appearance: Veneers reflect light similarly to natural tooth enamel, giving them a realistic look.
Versatility: They can address various cosmetic issues, including chips, cracks, uneven teeth sizes, mild crookedness, gaps, and stubborn discoloration.
Durability: Veneers are long-lasting with proper care. They are bonded securely to your teeth and resistant to scratches and chips.
Adaptability: Veneers can be used on one tooth, multiple teeth, or all visible surfaces. They can also be combined with other cosmetic treatments to achieve your ideal smile.
What to Expect from the Veneer Procedure
At Tenaglia Smiles, the veneer process involves several steps:
- Initial Consultation: During your consultation, Dr. Marzban will evaluate your dental health and discuss your goals.
- Preparation: A small portion of the tooth’s surface is gently removed to ensure the veneers fit seamlessly. Digital impressions are taken and sent to a lab to craft your custom veneers.
- Temporary Veneers: You’ll receive temporary veneers while your permanent ones are being made.
- Final Placement: After about two weeks, you’ll return to our office to have your permanent veneers fitted and bonded.
We also offer Lumineers, which are ultra-thin veneers that require no removal of existing tooth structure. To determine which type of veneer is right for you, schedule a consultation with us.
