Difference Between Porcelain and Composite Veneers

Enhance Your Smile with Custom Porcelain Veneers

Enhance your smile with custom porcelain veneers at LP Dental of Falls Church. Our high-quality porcelain veneers can improve the appearance of your teeth by altering their shape, color, and size, giving you a beautiful smile that will boost your confidence. Select from traditional porcelain veneers or choose minimal or no-prep options, all made with ultra-thin porcelain to maintain your natural tooth structure and provide outstanding, durable results.

The Process

We believe that a beautiful smile begins with effective communication and a commitment to oral health. Each appointment starts with a conversation about your general health, dental issues, and goals.

1

Crafting Your Ideal Smile with Digital Modeling

First, we will talk about the smile you want and carefully document the specifics of your teeth. Then, a talented lab technician will use this information to create a digital version of your ideal smile. This model allows us to show you a preview of your future smile, and we can also apply temporary resin to your teeth for a test run.

2

Trimming Enamel for Perfectly Fitted Porcelain Veneers

To prepare your teeth for porcelain veneers, we will carefully trim a small amount of enamel, the outer layer of your tooth structure. This step is crucial to ensure that the veneers fit correctly and look natural once they are applied. By removing the right amount of enamel, we create space for the veneers to fit smoothly against your teeth, seamlessly blending in with your natural smile.

We Craft Your Custom Porcelain Veneers

While our expert lab technician crafts your final porcelain veneers, you will receive temporary veneers to maintain your smile's appearance. These temporary veneers not only enhance your look but also protect your prepared teeth until the final veneers are completed.

4

Finalizing Your Porcelain Veneers

After your custom porcelain veneers are finished, we will securely attach them to your teeth using a durable adhesive to guarantee a lasting hold. This is a crucial step in achieving a stunning smile and maintaining the integrity of the veneers. Once the veneers are securely in place, we will polish them to improve their shine and ensure they blend seamlessly with your natural teeth.
