You deserve to love your smile. If you are unhappy with the appearance of your teeth, composite veneers may be the answer.

What Are Composite Veneers?

Veneers are a well-known cosmetic dentistry option to give you a smile makeover in just a few short visits to the dentist. Composite veneers are used to correct several dental problems, including chipped teeth, cracked teeth, stained, or discolored teeth, out of shape teeth, and gaps between teeth. They are also an option for people who want to change the color of their teeth or make their teeth look longer.

Composite veneers are made of medical-grade composite resin, a strong, durable material that can be color-matched to your natural tooth color. They can be applied to one or multiple teeth and are usually placed on the front teeth, where they are most visible.

What Is The Process For Getting Composite Veneers?

The first step is to schedule a consultation with your dentist. During the consultation, your dentist examines your teeth and discusses your cosmetic goals. If you decide to move forward with treatment, your dentist will then prepare your teeth for the veneers. This involves lightly buffing the surface of your teeth to remove a small amount of enamel. Next, impressions of your teeth are used to create your custom veneers.

While your veneers are being made, you will be fitted with temporary veneers. Once your permanent veneers are made ready, you will return to the dentist to have them bonded to your teeth.

Are Composite Veneers Right For Me?

Composite veneers are a great option for people who want to improve the smile or appearance of their teeth and are often less expensive than porcelain veneers. Also, they can be completed in just a few short visits to the dentist. When considering composite veneers, schedule a consultation with our dentist to see if they are right for you.
