Difference Between Porcelain and Composite Veneers

Enhance Your Smile with Custom Porcelain Veneers

Elevate your confidence with personalized porcelain veneers from LP Dental of Falls Church. Our high-quality veneers can transform the appearance of your teeth by altering their shape, color, and size, giving you a beautiful smile.

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 discuss the smile you desire and meticulously record the details of your teeth. Next, a skilled lab technician will utilize this information to generate a digital representation of your perfect smile. This virtual preview enables us to demonstrate how your upcoming smile will appear, and we can also apply temporary resin to your teeth for a trial 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 closely against your teeth, seamlessly blending in with your natural smile.

We Craft Your Custom Porcelain Veneers

Our skilled lab technician will provide you with temporary veneers to maintain your beautiful smile and safeguard your teeth until your permanent porcelain veneers are ready.

4

Finalizing Your Porcelain Veneers

After your custom porcelain veneers are finished, we will use a strong adhesive to securely attach them to your teeth for long-lasting results. This is a crucial step in creating a beautiful smile and maintaining the quality 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.
