Veneers in Lodi

Why Choose Veneers?

Veneers are thin, custom-made shells crafted from tooth-colored materials designed to cover the front side of your teeth. They are an excellent solution for individuals who are looking to improve the appearance of their smile. Veneers can change the color, shape, size, or length of your teeth, offering a complete transformation. They're particularly useful for addressing a wide variety of dental issues, including discolored, worn down, chipped, broken, misaligned, uneven, irregularly shaped teeth, or gaps between teeth.

The Veneers Treatment Process

Consultation and Treatment Planning

The first step towards getting veneers in Lodi involves a comprehensive consultation with Dr. Viccaro or Dr. Lo at Rochelle Dental. During this visit, your dentist will examine your teeth to ensure that veneers are the right option for you. They will discuss your goals and expectations and answer any questions you might have. This is an opportunity for you to learn more about the procedure, its benefits, and costs.

Preparation

In the preparation phase, your dentist will reshape the tooth surface, which is an amount nearly equal to the thickness of the veneer to be added to the tooth surface. You and your dentist will decide whether a local anesthetic is needed to numb the area. Next, your dentist will make an impression, or model, of your tooth. This model is sent out to a dental laboratory, which constructs your veneer. It usually takes 2-4 weeks for the veneers to come back from the laboratory.

Bonding

Once your veneers are ready, your dentist will temporarily place it on your tooth to examine its fit and color, repeatedly removing and trimming the veneer to achieve the proper fit. Before the veneer is cemented to your tooth, your tooth will be cleaned, polished, and etched to allow for a strong bonding process. A special cement is applied to the veneer, which is then placed on your tooth. Once properly positioned, your dentist will apply a special light beam to the dental veneer, which activates chemicals in the cement causing it to harden quickly.

The Benefits Of Veneers

Aesthetics

One of the biggest advantages of veneers is their natural appearance. Veneers are designed to mimic the light-reflecting properties of natural teeth, so they look completely natural. They can be tailored to match your existing teeth, so they blend in seamlessly with your smile.

Durability

Veneers are also extremely durable. They are made from strong materials, like porcelain, that can withstand everyday wear and tear. With proper care, veneers can last for many years, making them a long-term solution for enhancing your smile.

Versatility

Veneers are highly versatile. They can be used to address a wide range of cosmetic dental issues, from minor shape corrections to severe discoloration. Whether you have chipped, worn, or discolored teeth, veneers can help you achieve a more beautiful and confident smile.
