Porcelain Veneer Candidacy
Not everyone is a suitable candidate for porcelain veneers. Dr. Gabriel will carefully evaluate your oral health and discuss your cosmetic goals to determine if veneers are the right option for you. Candidates typically have:
- Good oral health with no active gum disease or cavities.
- Sufficient tooth enamel to securely bond the veneers.
- Realistic expectations and a clear understanding of the procedure.
During your consultation with our Wexford cosmetic dentist, you’ll have the opportunity to discuss any concerns and ask questions about the process.
The Veneers Process
Getting porcelain veneers is a multi-step process that requires precision and expertise. Dr. Paul Gabriel follows a systematic approach to ensure each patient receives a customized and beautiful result.
Consultation
The journey begins with a comprehensive consultation where Dr. Gabriel will assess your oral health and discuss your aesthetic goals. Together, you’ll determine if porcelain veneers are the right choice for you.
Preparation
Before the veneers are applied, he’ll remove a small amount of enamel from the surface of the teeth. This allows for a seamless fit and a natural appearance once the veneers are in place.
Impression
A precise impression of your prepared teeth is taken, which serves as the blueprint for the custom veneers. This ensures a snug fit and a flawless finish.
Customization
Each veneer is meticulously crafted in a dental laboratory to Dr. Gabriel’s exact specifications. The color, shape, and size are all customized to harmonize with your natural teeth and facial features.
Bonding
Once the veneers are ready, Dr. Gabriel will carefully bond them to your teeth using a strong adhesive. Any necessary adjustments will be made to ensure a comfortable fit and a stunning smile.
Final Touches
Dr. Gabriel will make any final adjustments to guarantee that your veneers look and feel perfect. This attention to detail ensures a smile that’s both functional and beautiful.
