Backed by 40 years of experience, Katy, TX, dentist Dr. Hugo Artaza is devoted to helping patients achieve their dream smiles and boost their self-confidence. Artaza Dental understands the importance and impact of a beautiful smile and how it can make all the difference in how we present ourselves to the world! That’s why we are excited to introduce porcelain veneers, one of our most popular cosmetic dentistry procedures. Porcelain veneers offer an easy way to achieve significant transformations in your smile with less time or worry than ever before.
Veneers are thin, custom-made shells that are designed to cover the front surface of teeth. They are typically made of porcelain or composite resin materials and are used for cosmetic purposes to improve the look of teeth that are chipped, stained, or misshapen.
Generally, porcelain veneers are placed in two dental appointments. To apply veneers, Dr. Artaza will first prepare the tooth by removing a small amount of enamel from the front surface. This is done to ensure a proper fit for the veneer and to create a rough surface that the veneer can bond to. Next, our Houston dentist will take a mold of the prepared tooth and send it to a dental lab, where the veneer will be custom-made to fit the tooth precisely.
Once the veneer is ready, Dr. Artaza will fit the veneers to ensure that they are a great addition to your smile and bond it to the tooth using a special adhesive and light. The result is a natural-looking, durable restoration that can dramatically improve your overall appearance.
Candidacy for porcelain veneers depends on a variety of factors. Generally, candidates should have excellent overall oral health, including healthy teeth and gums. Additionally, candidates should have structurally sound teeth, as veneers are not recommended for teeth with large dental fillings or extensive decay. Patients with conditions such as bruxism or temporomandibular joint disorder (TMD) may not be good candidates for porcelain veneers, as these conditions can put excessive stress on the veneers and cause them to fail. Ultimately, an in-person cosmetic dentistry consultation is the best way to determine if porcelain veneers are a good option for you.
Achieving a beautiful smile is a meaningful way to help you boost your self-esteem and increase your overall confidence. Porcelain veneers are an effective solution to many dental problems, and they can help you create the perfect smile.
