Choose Ritter and Ramsey for your dental services in Jupiter, Palm Beach Gardens, and all of Palm Beach County, Florida.

If you’ve made the decision to research porcelain veneers, then you must know the positives of getting this procedure done. Porcelain veneers are custom-made shells that are adhered to the front face of your teeth to correct and hide various amounts of imperfections. Some problems that could be fixed with veneers are yellowed, rotted, separated, crooked, chipped, and cracked teeth.

Many people have taken the plunge into cosmetic dentistry to have porcelain veneers set in. This process is not necessarily quick, however, has long-lasting results. This is a worth-while investment!

It’s easy to forget about our own cosmetic wants and needs when there are a million other things that need to be paid as well. However, it’s important to remember your smile is the most important expressive attribute on your face, so why not make it pretty? Everyone could use a little confidence boost every once in a while, so make this your time to shine!

What Is The Porcelain Veneer Process?

After your initial consultation with your dentist, the process starts by shaving down the front face of your teeth. The “shaving” allows rooms for the veneer to be adhered onto your tooth without sticking out in an unnatural way. Once the teeth are shaved, they are extensively cleaned and prepped for the shell to be placed.

Porcelain veneers require a temporary veneer to be placed on first, while the permanent ones are being made. During this visit, the dentist will take a mold of your teeth with wax to send to a lab where your porcelain veneers will be made. Once the temporary veneers have adhered, this is the perfect time to ask questions and raise comments about the fit of your veneers. Once the porcelain ones have been customized in ceramic by trained professionals, it’s time to get them adhered to your teeth!

After the porcelain veneers are set in, they will last you nearly two decades. Be sure to keep them in perfect shape by attending yearly dental check-ups. It’s best to follow at-home steps to ensuring the quality of your veneers.

How Much Will Porcelain Veneers Cost Me?

This question could have a number of different answers, and it all comes down to this: what kind of quality are you looking for? It’s up to you to fully immerse yourself in your own research in finding the best cosmetic dentist for you (and one within a budget you’re comfortable with).

Be sure to first find out how many teeth you’d like to be faced with a veneer, and then decide the type of budget you’re comfortable with. It doesn’t hurt to find the cosmetic dentist in your area with tons of great reviews! In comparison, composite resin veneers, which last a third of the amount of time as porcelain ones, will also cost you a third of the price. Which do you feel is the better investment?
