Teeth Veneers At Perfect Dental® Jamnagar
Veneers can improve smile and protect the tooth surface from damage. It provides a beautiful radiant smile.
Your smile immensely influences your day to day life. 47% of people judge your personality based on your smile. Therefore it is extremely important to maintain a beautiful radiant smile. Your smile can brighten up your day as well as those around you who have the good fortune of seeing it. An appalling smile on the other hand causes embarrassment and dims out your personality.
Dental veneer is a layer of material placed over a tooth. Veneers can improve the aesthetics of a smile and protect the tooth’s surface from damage. There are three main types of veneers: Composite Veneers and Porcelain Veneers and No-prep Veneers. No-prep means we don’t have to drill your teeth or reduce your tooth surface to fit the veneers to your smile. No-prep Veneers can be made of either composite or porcelain material.
Who is a good candidate for veneers?
Good overall oral health is very essential before you choose to get veneers on your teeth. Patients must have healthy gums and teeth. If your gums and teeth are not healthy, you can undergo treatment to improve their health which may then make you a good candidate for veneers.
What is the difference between porcelain veneers and composite veneers?
Porcelain veneers are thin shells of porcelain adhered to the outer-surface of the tooth. Composite veneers are engineered resin affixed to the outer surface. Both are made to match your teeth (or whiten teeth) and improve your overall smile.
Composite veneers are a less invasive way to restore your smile. If you have worn chipped or damaged teeth then composite resin can be sculpted directly onto the teeth to produce beautiful, lifelike results. We can change the color, shape, size, and alignment of the teeth with this technique.
Porcelain is a ceramic that has many similar properties to the teeth’s natural covering, enamel. Because of this, porcelain veneers appear natural and realistic. Porcelain is a ceramic and has very high stain resistance property.
No-prep means we don’t have to drill your teeth or reduce your tooth surface to fit the veneers to your smile. No-prep veneers are similar in nature to contact lenses. Because the porcelain used is so thin we can bond to your teeth without creating bulk.
Aesthetic Tooth Build Up or Composite Veneers
Aesthetic tooth build up is the cosmetic procedure in which tooth colored filling material is used to restore teeth and thereby helping people with imperfections in their teeth to have more attractive smiles. It is used to repair cracks, chips, close spaces between teeth, change the color of the teeth, mask any discolorations, alter the size or shape of teeth and reshape crooked or misshapen teeth.
Aesthetic tooth build up can dramatically conceal or ameliorate every flaw in your smile and bring out the beautiful smile that you deserve. In order to get the most visually appealing results, it is necessary to get the treatment done by our best cosmetic dentists in Jamnagar who are specially trained in rendering life like results compared to the regular dentists.
If you’re considering cosmetic dental veneers, you may already know the many benefits they offer. But there are a few important things that you must understand before making this dental choice to improve your smile:
Teeth Veneers Can Stop Sensitivity
In addition to making teeth look brighter and more beautiful, cosmetic dental veneers can also make teeth less sensitive and stronger. According to Perfect Dental® experts in Jamnagar, cosmetic dental veneers can significantly reduce tooth sensitivity because they cover the front of teeth to provide a barrier against the foods and drinks that make them feel very sensitive.
Teeth Veneers May Not Do Dental Damage
Thanks to advances in dentistry, veneers no longer always require extensive enamel removal. Our specialist dentist may actually be able to place your veneers with little to no dental damage. No-prep veneers are a good option if you’re concerned with conserving tooth enamel. No-prep means we don’t have to drill your teeth or reduce your tooth surface to fit the veneers to your smile. No-prep veneers are similar in nature to contact lenses. Because the porcelain used is so thin we can bond to your teeth without creating bulk.
Teeth Veneers Can Reshape Your Teeth
One of the greatest advantages of cosmetic teeth veneers is how they can change the entire shape of your teeth. Based on your dental needs and desires, our specialist veneer dentist can do a serious makeover to widen your smile, accentuate your cheekbones, or make your face more symmetrical.
Teeth Veneers Require Care Chewing
Veneers tend to be more fragile because they are usually made out of delicate porcelain or composite material. As a result, you need to be very careful when eating very hard foods such as raw carrots, apples and meat on the bone.
Biting down on a very hard substance can cause the veneer to chip or fracture. That’s why our expert doctors at Perfect Dental® in Jamnagar, recommend chewing hard foods with your back teeth to avoid damaging veneers on the front teeth.
A Guide On How To Look After Your Veneers
Looking after your veneers correctly can extend the life of your porcelain or composite veneers. On average porcelain veneers can last 10 to 15 years and composite veneers can last around 4 to 8 years. However, with care your veneers can last for a much longer period.
To help extend the life of your veneers and their appearance, read our tips for looking after veneers below:
Maintain Good Oral Hygiene
Maintaining a good oral hygiene such as brushing twice a day and flossing once daily can help extend the longevity of your veneers. You should care for your veneers as you would your natural teeth.
It is important to note that veneers do not stop the build-up of plaque, tartar or calculus on teeth. For this reason, it is important to maintain a high standard of oral health.
Aggressive brushing and insufficient dental care can lead to gum recession. This is where the gums start receding around your teeth and the junction between the veneer and your tooth will become visible. Use of proper brushing technique is very essential. The more recession, the more visible the junction becomes. If those areas become unsightly you may need to replace your veneers.
A good indication of hard brushing is how quickly your toothbrush becomes worn. If you are finding within a month or two of using a new toothbrush it is worn, you are most likely brushing too hard. Try using a soft toothbrush or holding your toothbrush with your fingertips.

This also goes for chewing hard objects. If you have a habit of chewing on pens, pencils or opening bottles with teeth, this can be harmful to your veneers.
Avoid Staining Foods
Porcelain veneers are stain resistant; however, over time certain foods and drink can tarnish their pearly white appearance.
The worst offenders for staining veneers are coffee, tea, wine and cigarettes. If you are not ready to give up your favorite drink, try drinking out of a straw as this can limit stains on teeth.
Limit Alcohol Consumption
Large quantities of alcohol can soften the bonding cement that attaches the veneer to the tooth. This leaves the bonding agent prone to damage, erosion and stains.
This is not to say the veneer will fall off, it simply makes it more susceptible to outside forces.
Alcohol can also be found in toothpaste and mouthwash. So, check the label and make sure your tooth cleaning products are alcohol-free.
Avoid Teeth Grinding (Bruxism)
When we become stressed, have an abnormal bite or even a sleeping disorder we might grind our teeth together. We recommend to our patients (especially those with porcelain veneers) to have a nightguard made to help protect teeth during sleep.
Teeth grinding or clenching at night in some cases may cause damage to veneers.
Regular Dental Checkups and Teeth Cleaning Every 6 Months
Check-up and cleans can help to remove build-up plaque that your toothbrush can not remove alone. If plaque is left to build up, your veneers might need to be removed to access the area.
You should also ask your dentist to check your veneers to see if they are still secured or if there are any visible signs of vulnerability.
Seeing the dentist frequently can help detect diseases, abnormalities and early signs of decay. Further, attending regular check-up and teeth cleaning is not only important for your veneers but also your overall oral health.
