Overview

What are Dental Veneers?

Dental veneers are ultra-thin, custom-made shells of tooth-colored porcelain or composite resin bonded to the teeth’ front surface. They are a versatile cosmetic dentistry solution designed to address a range of dental imperfections, including stains, chips, gaps, and misalignments. Our dental veneers not only enhance the appearance of your teeth but also provide durability and resilience.

At Advanced Dentistry and Aesthetics in Park City, we pride ourselves on offering advanced dentistry beyond the conventional. Our commitment to excellence is reflected in the meticulous approach we take toward crafting dental veneers.

What are the Benefits of Dental Veneers?

Dental veneers are not just about covering imperfections; they are a form of artistry. With his keen eye for detail and aesthetic sensibility, Dr. Peterson approaches each dental veneer procedure as a unique artistic creation. The result is a natural-looking smile that complements your facial features and enhances your overall appearance. Some of the benefits include:

  1. Cosmetic Enhancement: Dental veneers effectively conceal stains, discolorations, chips, and misalignments, giving you a brighter and more symmetrical smile.
  2. Durability: Our veneers are crafted from high-quality materials and from the best labs, ensuring long-lasting results and resistance to stains and damage.
  3. Minimally Invasive: Unlike some dental procedures, applying veneers is a minimally invasive process that preserves a significant amount of your natural tooth structure.
  4. Instant Transformation: Dental veneers provide a quick and dramatic transformation, making them an ideal solution for those seeking immediate results.

What to Expect When Getting Dental Veneers

We prioritize our patients’ comfort and satisfaction throughout the dental veneer process. From the initial consultation to the final reveal, our team ensures a seamless and positive experience. We take the time to educate our patients about the procedure, addressing any concerns and ensuring they feel confident about their decision to enhance their smiles. Here’s a step-by-step guide to what you can expect during the process:

  1. Initial Consultation:

The first step is a comprehensive consultation with Dr. Paul Peterson. This crucial step includes extensive photography, discussing your cosmetic goals, examining your oral health, and determining if dental veneers are the right solution. Dr. Peterson will take the time to understand your concerns, answer any questions, and outline a customized treatment plan tailored to your unique needs.

  1. Treatment Planning:

We will craft a detailed treatment once you decide to proceed with dental veneers. This plan includes considerations such as the number of veneers needed, proper character, shape, color mapping, as well as the best material selection. Expect open communication and collaboration to ensure your expectations align with the proposed treatment.  This important planning is all too commonly skipped. The time Dr. Peterson devotes to communicating with you and overseeing the lab process of Smile Design is a rarity, but one of the key reasons his patients’ results stand out.

  1. Digital Smile Design:

Your custom plan is put into action with the creation of a digital Smile Design that is transformed into printed models. These models are used to create a plan for your next appointment. We will have a plan of if and where tooth shaping is needed and exactly how it should be done, and we create custom temporaries.

  1. Tooth Preparation:

To make room for the veneers and ensure a seamless fit, we will gently remove a minimal amount of enamel from the front surface of the teeth. This step is crucial for achieving a natural appearance and a secure bond between the veneers and teeth.  This process is typically painless, will be as conservative as possible, and we administer local anesthetic or use IV sedation for added comfort.

  1. Digital Scanning and Temporary Veneers:

No need for impressions! We will take precise digital records of your prepared teeth to create custom veneers that perfectly match your natural teeth. While your permanent veneers are being crafted in a dental laboratory, you will already be previewing your new smile with your custom-designed temporaries.  

This way, your smile already looks great the moment you leave and you have the opportunity to try out the shape and color of your new smile.

  1. Smile Design Check: 

Having your new smile is better than any smile mock-up software! For this reason, we give you time to wear your temporaries, then return for a follow-up with Dr. Peterson to review your new teeth. Any detail can still be modified, giving you assurance that the final product will meet your goals. Our built-in checks and balances are what provide assurance of happy patients!

  1. Veneer Placement:

Once your custom veneers are ready, you return for the exciting final step – placement. Dr. Peterson carefully uses dental adhesive to bond the veneers to your teeth, ensuring a secure and durable attachment. The placement is a meticulous process, with attention to detail, to achieve the desired aesthetics. You’ll get a chance to preview your new smile and give final approval before the bonding. 

  1. Post-Placement Care:

Dr. Peterson guides post-placement care after your dental veneers are securely in place. These instructions typically involve maintaining good oral hygiene, regular dental check-ups, and avoiding habits that could potentially damage the veneers. With proper care, your dental veneers can last for many, many years!
