What Are Dental Veneers?
Dental veneers are thin, custom-made shells made of porcelain or composite resin that cover the teeth’s front surface. We design them to match your natural teeth’s shape, size, and color, making them ideal for cosmetic enhancement.
Veneers address a variety of concerns, including:
- Stained or discolored teeth
- Chipped or broken teeth
- Uneven or misshapen teeth
- Gaps between teeth
- Mildly crooked teeth
By covering imperfections, veneers give you a brighter, more symmetrical smile in just a few visits.
The Veneer Procedure: What to Expect
We make the veneer process smooth and comfortable from start to finish. Here’s what your veneer journey at Wilder Dentistry looks like:
1. Consultation and Smile Design
During your initial visit, Dr. Wilder evaluates your teeth and gums using digital X-rays, intraoral cameras, and digital impressions. We discuss your smile goals, take photos, and plan your veneers’ ideal shape, size, and color.
2. Tooth Preparation
We gently remove a small layer of enamel from each tooth receiving a veneer to ensure a perfect fit. This allows the veneer to bond seamlessly and look natural. You’ll wear temporary veneers while our lab crafts your final restorations.
3. Final Placement
Once your custom veneers are ready, we check their fit and appearance. Dr. Wilder makes adjustments as needed and then bonds the veneers to your teeth with a strong dental adhesive. The result is immediate—a stunning, refreshed smile that looks and feels natural.
Caring for Your Veneers
Taking care of your veneers in Spokane Valley, WA, is easy and essential for long-term results. With proper care, veneers can last 10–15 years or longer. Follow these tips to maintain your new smile:
- Brush twice a day with a non-abrasive toothpaste
- Floss daily to protect your gums and the edges of your veneers
- Avoid biting hard objects like ice, pens, or fingernails
- Wear a nightguard if you grind your teeth
- Visit us regularly for checkups and cleanings
We’ll check your veneers at each appointment to ensure they remain secure and beautiful. If a veneer ever becomes loose or damaged, we’re here to help.
