NATURAL-LOOKING VENEERS IN SAN DIEGO COUNTY

SAN DIEGO, POWAY & SORRENTO VALLEY, CA'S PREFERRED VENEER PROVIDERS

If you are unhappy with your smile, porcelain veneers can provide you with a long-lasting solution. Veneers are ultra-thin pieces of porcelain that adhere directly to the front of your teeth to cover blemishes, chips or discolored teeth. They can also be used to close gaps and straighten mildly crooked teeth. At A+ Family Dentistry, we use this effective dental solution to help our patients achieve their desired smile.

VENEERS Process

The process of getting veneers typically involves multiple steps, starting with a consultation where the dentist assesses your teeth, followed by the preparation of your teeth, taking impressions, and finally, the placement of the custom-made veneers to enhance your smile's appearance.

WHY WE CHOOSE A LOCAL LAB TO PROVIDE US WITH QUALITY VENEERS

A key to beautiful veneers is working with the right lab. We use a local lab known for its excellent cosmetic work and high-quality materials. They use high-quality all-porcelain e.max® or Empress® veneers which are two of the most durable, lifelike ceramics available. These veneers are strong and durable so we are able to create thinner veneers, which means less shaving down of the tooth surface. Our metal-free veneers are biocompatible and highly resistant to stains and bacteria.

TYPES OF VENEERS

There are two main types of veneers available: porcelain and composite resin. Porcelain veneers are typically more durable and stain-resistant than composite veneers and are custom-made in a dental laboratory to fit your teeth precisely. Composite veneers, on the other hand, are applied directly to your teeth in a single visit and can be more affordable than porcelain veneers. A few other types of porcelain veneers include:

Minimal-Prep Veneers: Some of our patients might be candidates for Lumineers®. This type of porcelain veneer is very thin so little or no tooth structure has to be removed for placement over existing teeth. Depending on tooth structure, Lumineers can be an excellent cosmetic solution for stained, chipped, discolored or misaligned teeth.

Same-Day Veneers: In our Poway office, we use the CEREC design and milling machine to create same-day veneers right in our office while you wait. In just one visit, you’ll walk out with a brand new smile. In our San Diego office, we offer same-day veneers to patients getting multiple veneers. The veneers will be designed and created by our lab and placed by the doctor in one day. No temporaries or follow-up visits are required.

AM I A CANDIDATE FOR PORCELAIN VENEERS?

Porcelain veneers can be an effective cosmetic dental solution for addressing a range of aesthetic concerns with your teeth. They can help you achieve a brighter, more uniform smile that looks natural and enhances your overall appearance. In addition, individuals who are experiencing the following dental issues are candidates for porcelain veneers:

Mildly crooked teeth

Broken or chipped teeth

Gaps between your teeth

Misshapen teeth

Permanently stained or discolored teeth

Yellowed teeth

OUR PORCELAIN VENEERS PROCEDURE

At A+ Family Dentistry, we follow a very specific and efficient process when it comes to placing porcelain veneers. If you're looking to learn what you could expect when you arrive at one of our three San Diego County offices, take a look at the steps outlined below:

Preparing for your new smile. Traditional veneers are placed over the course of two visits. Treatment always begins with thorough diagnostics, including digital X-rays and intraoral and extraoral photos of your smile. These images help us to plan your procedure.

Determine the look of your smile. You will have the opportunity to look at our before and after photo gallery of previous patients to help you determine how you want your new smile to look.

Impressions and study model. An impression of your teeth will be made so that we can create a study model of your smile. This model will be used to make sure that your teeth are well aligned and the bite is correct. For multiple veneers, we may also create a “wax-up” model of your teeth in order to show you just what the final result will look like before any work on your teeth begins.

Temporaries. The doctor will prepare your teeth and take impressions that are sent to the lab. He or she will then place temporary veneers that you will wear for about two weeks while the final veneers are being fabricated.In our Poway office, we use the CEREC design and milling machine to create custom veneers right in our office while you wait. No temporaries are necessary.In our San Diego office, we offer same-day veneers to patients getting multiple veneers at the same time. In that case, temporary veneers are also unnecessary.

Your final veneers are permanently bonded to the tooth with a resin or composite adhesive, holding them securely in place. Each veneer is handcrafted to either match your other teeth or to transform your smile with a natural-looking white color that complements your face. The doctors will double-check the work to make sure that your veneers fit perfectly, feel comfortable and look beautiful.

COMMON QUESTIONs

  • How long do porcelain veneers last?

    Porcelain veneers are known for their durability and can last for up to 15 years or more with proper care and maintenance. However, they may need to be replaced over time as they can chip or become worn.

  • Are porcelain veneers permanent?

    Porcelain veneers are not considered permanent, as they may need to be replaced eventually due to normal wear and tear. However, they are a long-term solution for improving the appearance of your smile.

  • Are porcelain veneers noticeable?

    Porcelain veneers are designed to blend in seamlessly with your natural teeth, and they are customized to match the size, shape, and color of your existing teeth. With proper placement and care, porcelain veneers can be virtually indistinguishable from your natural teeth.

  • Can anyone get porcelain veneers?

    Porcelain veneers are a cosmetic dental treatment and may not be suitable for everyone. Your dentist can evaluate your oral health and determine if porcelain veneers are a safe and appropriate option for you.

  • How much do porcelain veneers cost?

    The cost of porcelain veneers varies depending on factors such as the number of veneers needed and the expertise of your dentist. At A+ Family Dentistry, we offer competitive pricing and can provide a customized estimate based on your individual needs and budget.
