    Enhancing Smiles

    Cosmetic dentistry is transforming lives through complete smile makeovers, and veneers lead the list of aesthetic treatments as a wildly popular procedure. If you’re considering porcelain veneers from our Atlanta, GA dental office for a new smile, here’s what you can expect…

    The First Appointment

    You will need to schedule an hour or two for your initial appointment, and you may want to take photos or magazine clippings to show your doctor the kind of smile you prefer. After a thorough examination to assess your oral health and existing dentition, your doctor will discuss with you the kind of smile you envision. Be prepared to discuss the color and shape of your ideal smile at this appointment.

    Your doctor will take notes on the shade of your teeth, your facial features, and measurements of your face. He’ll consider your skin tone and facial symmetry when designing your veneers. If you have questions about your veneers or the procedure, we will be happy to give comprehensive answers. You may want to ask to see his portfolio.

    Tooth Preparation

    Often during the first appointment, your doctor will gently buff your teeth to remove 1 to 2 mm of enamel in preparation for your new veneers. Tooth reduction will allow the veneers to lie flat, in line with surrounding teeth. Reshaping of teeth may also be required to create the look you want.

    We will take an impression of your mouth to send to the lab. Before you leave the dental chair, temporary veneers will be placed. Your teeth may feel sensitive until the permanent veneers are placed.

    Behind the Scenes

    After your first appointment, your doctor will order your veneers from a dental lab. A talented ceramist will handcraft the veneers from durable materials that look and function like natural dentition. The information your doctor provides the lab will ensure that you receive veneers that will create a smile that complements your appearance. The lab will ship your veneers to our dental office.

    Porcelain Veneer Placement

    Local anesthetic may be administered to ensure your complete comfort during veneer placement. Your doctor will remove the temporary veneers and check the fit of your permanent veneers. You can look at the shape, color, and fit before they are attached. If adjustments need to be made, you should tell your us at this time. Veneers cannot be altered once in place.

    If all is well, your doctor will permanently bond the new veneers to the front surface of your teeth. First, he will apply a mild acidic solution to clean the surface of your teeth, then he will bond the veneers in place. A small light will cure the bonding material. We will make sure that the veneers allow adequate flossing space.

    Your New Smile

    In as few as two dental visits, you can enjoy a completely new smile! If you’re considering a smile makeover, call us for a complementary consultation. A few veneers may change your life.
