Natural teeth may be pitted and grooved. Although they look natural, veneers may feel smoother and more polished when you run your tongue over them.
However, to keep your veneers in Springfield, IL, smooth and beautiful, it’s essential to take care of them.
- Adopt and implement an excellent brushing and flossing routine—cleaning your teeth at least twice daily.
- Visit your Springfield dentist twice yearly for teeth cleanings and dental examinations.
- Report any oral health changes, including veneer issues, to the dentist as soon as possible.
What Are Dental Veneers?
Dental veneers are tooth shells fixed to the front of teeth to conceal cosmetic flaws like chips, short teeth, discoloration, mildly crooked teeth, unusual spacing, and gummy smiles. They are custom-made to look natural, and you can treat as many teeth as you’d like.
But first, we see you for an assessment to ensure veneers will work for your smile goals. If veneers are not the right option, your dentist will explain why and may present alternatives.
Veneers are excellent on their own but can be incorporated into a full smile makeover.
