Looking for a comprehensive cosmetic treatment for your smile? At the office of Ronald C. Fuhrmann DDS, we offer dental veneers as a comprehensive method of concealing and correcting smile imperfections like tooth stains, chips, gaps, or misshapen teeth.
What are Dental Veneers?
Dental veneers are thin, custom-made shells designed to cover the front surface of your teeth. They are a popular cosmetic dental solution that can instantly transform your smile by concealing a variety of aesthetic concerns. Bonded securely to your natural teeth, veneers provide a durable and natural-looking enhancement.
Dr. Fuhrmann and his dental team offer two main types of dental veneers:
Composite Veneers
Composite veneers are made from a tooth-colored resin material that is applied directly to your teeth. The composite is sculpted and hardened, often in a single appointment.
Composite veneers are typically a more cost-effective option and can be a great way to address minor cosmetic issues. They can also be more easily repaired if needed, offering a convenient and efficient solution for subtle smile enhancements. Often completed in just one visit, the composite material is directly applied, shaped, and polished on your tooth.
Porcelain Veneers
Porcelain veneers are fabricated in a dental laboratory from high-quality porcelain. Porcelain veneers are known for their natural, translucent appearance that closely mimics tooth enamel, providing naturally beautiful results. They are also more resistant to staining than composite veneers and tend to be more durable, offering a more long-lasting solution for a radiant smile.
The process of receiving porcelain veneers usually involves two visits. First, your teeth are prepared, and impressions are taken to create your custom veneers. At the second visit, your custom-made porcelain veneers are bonded to your teeth.
At your veneers consultation, Dr. Fuhrmann will discuss the pros and cons of both composite and ceramic veneers with you to help you choose the best option for achieving the smile you desire. During your consultation, we'll assess your oral health, discuss your aesthetic goals, and determine which type of veneer is ideal for your unique needs. We are dedicated to providing personalized care that results in a beautiful and confident smile.
