Porcelain Veneers in West Kelowna

What are Porcelain Veneers?

Dental veneers are thin shells crafted from high-grade ceramic. They are placed over the front surface of a patient’s natural teeth to address several issues, including teeth that are:

  • Discolored
  • Broken or chipped
  • Misshapen
  • Have gaps between them
  • Increase uniformity
  • Weakened teeth

This service is a great option for patients who don’t want or are ineligible for teeth whitening. Veneers are durable and stain-resistant, and, once they’re fastened in place, will look just like your natural smile.

While very effective, it’s important to remember that porcelain veneers are provided to fix minor repairs and concerns; if you need more extensive care, your dentist in West Kelowna may recommend getting a crown or implants instead.

The Process

Typically, you’ll have to attend two or three appointments to complete the process.

First, you’ll need to attend a one-on-one session with your dentist so that they can evaluate your mouth and understand the extent of repairs that are needed. Next, they’ll prepare your teeth by etching away a bit of your enamel; this allows the veneers to fully stick to the tooth. Impressions of your smile are taken and delivered to a dental lab. Once they’re ready, you’ll return to the clinic and have them applied. Your dentist may need to make additional adjustments before you leave.

And voila! A new smile you can be happy to show off!
