A Complete Smile Makeover In A Single Visit

Dental veneers are thin porcelain shells custom-crafted to fit over natural teeth to improve their appearance. Unlike other cosmetic dental treatments, like dental crowns, dental veneers are minimally invasive, and can usually be applied in only one visit.

Getting Veneers Is Simple And Easy

Consultation

Before beginning your dental veneer treatment, you’ll need to come into our Mississauga dental office for a brief consultation. During this consultation, Dr. Hashmi will examine your dental condition to confirm that your teeth and gums are healthy. If Dr. Hashmi notices any issues, you may be recommended a treatment plan before the veneer procedure to ensure that your veneers have a clean and healthy foundation. If your teeth and gums are healthy, we will discuss your treatment options with you to determine if dental veneers are right for you.

Preparing the Teeth

A dental veneer requires us to remove a thin layer of enamel, creating a rough surface onto which the tooth can securely adhere. Dr. Hashmi begins by numbing the area around the tooth with a local anesthetic, so you won’t feel a thing. Once the area is sufficiently numb, She’ll gently remove the enamel before finishing up by taking an impression of the tooth. This impression ensures that the shape of your veneer matches the exact shape of the surrounding teeth.

Creating and Placing the Veneer

For your comfort, we’ll place a set of temporary veneers while your permanent veneers are being created. Once the permanent veneers are ready, we’ll remove your temporary veneers and bond the permanent veneers to the teeth. Dr. Hashmi will then apply a few finishing touches to make sure the veneers fit well and blend perfectly with the surrounding teeth before applying a quick polish.

Cost Of Dental Veneers

The out-of-pocket cost for a dental veneer can vary widely from patient to patient. Insurance coverage varies by company and benefit plan. Without insurance, a veneer cost between $1,100 and $1,800+.

Frequently Asked Questions

Porcelain veneers are usually referred to as “traditional” veneers. They are extremely durable and are virtually indistinguishable from a natural tooth to the naked eye. Because they are made up of porcelain, they are stain-resistant.

It’s ultimately up to you to decide how many veneers you need. You may wish to get veneers just on the teeth which are most visible when you smile.

Veneers are permanently bonded to your tooth and need the same care as your natural teeth. With regular brushing, flossing and check-ups, your veneers can last anywhere from 10 to 15 years.

Care for your veneers the same way you would care for your natural teeth. Brush at least twice daily with a nonabrasive toothpaste, floss at least once per day and rinse with an antiseptic mouthwash once or twice per day. Avoid sugary or acidic drinks and foods after brushing and especially before bed. And don’t forget to book your routine cleaning and checkup every 6 months!
