They are a popular solution for chipped and discolored teeth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Below, we will look at the types of veneers, learn about proper care, and discuss cost.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Types of Veneers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Porcelain Veneers<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Porcelain veneers are the most popular due to their quality and longevity. They are more robust and less likely to stain. However, the process can take longer, and dentists usually grind away a good portion of the tooth enamel before attaching them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some offices can fabricate porcelain veneers on-site, but if not, you will have to wait for them to be made at a lab. Once they are ready, your dentist will clean your teeth to remove any harmful bacteria. Then, a grinding tool creates a rough surface on the tooth, which helps the dental cement create a strong bond between the veneer and the tooth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Composite Resin Veneers<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Composite resin veneers don\u2019t require as much of the tooth to be removed since layers of composite material are applied to the teeth and shaped. Once the desired look is achieved, it is cured and hardened with a special light.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This procedure can be done in a single day, and composite veneers are easier to fix. However, they can also be damaged more easily and only last five to seven years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Proper Care of Veneers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Veneers can chip if you bite on hard objects like ice. Be sure to practice good daily habits such as brushing and flossing. Cavities can still form under and around veneers. Try using a dental guard if you clench or grind your teeth at night.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Cost of Veneers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Because veneers are cosmetic, many insurance plans don\u2019t cover them. One porcelain veneer can range from $925 to $2,500. Composite resin veneers cost from $400 to $2,000 per tooth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Factors affecting the cost include the type of veneer, brand, dentist\u2019s expertise, and area\u2019s cost of living.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Conclusion<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Have you ever wondered, \u201cWhat are veneers?\u201d Dental veneers are an excellent solution for improving a less-than-stellar smile. They cover discoloration, gaps, and chips.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The procedure is permanent and can be costly, so it\u2019s important to be sure of your decision. When you\u2019re ready, veneers can transform your appearance and your life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><b><i>For questions or to schedule an appointment, give <\/i><\/b><a href=\"https:\/\/cosmeticdentistsgrandprairie.com\/contact-us\/\"><b><i>The Dental Place<\/i><\/b><\/a><b><i> a call!
