What are Porcelain Veneers?
Veneers are very thin, custom-made shells of tooth-colored materials that provide a new front surface for your teeth. The shells bond to the front of the teeth, reshaping the appearance and giving you a more radiant smile. The shells are customized, designed specifically for you, and match the shape and color of your existing teeth. The covers are bonded with your underlying teeth using a strong adhesive.

PROCEDURE OF PORCELAIN VENEERS
First Visit
On your first visit, Dr. Cutler will discuss what you can expect from the procedure, help design your veneers and take an impression of your teeth.
Second Visit
On your second visit, he will remove the portion of the enamel from each affected tooth and replace it with temporary veneers. While wearing the temporary veneer, you need to be careful by brushing gently and avoiding certain foods. Dr. Cutler will go over that with you.
Third Visit
On your third visit, he will remove your temporary veneer and insert your new permanent veneers by cleaning the underlying tooth and permanently bonding the veneer in place.
Medication and Cold Compress
If you experience some discomfort following the procedure, you may take an over the counter pain medication and use a cold compress. It takes a little time to adjust to your new teeth.
