Understanding the process of obtaining porcelain veneers
Porcelain veneers require certain steps to obtain them. Patients who ask how porcelain veneers are done will often learn about the following process.
- Consultation. First and foremost, patients consult with the team at StarBrite Dental during an evaluation to determine if they are a good candidate for porcelain veneers.
- Preparation. Second, patients have a thin portion of the natural tooth enamel on the front of the teeth removed.
- Impressions. Third, impressions are taken of the natural tooth and are sent off to a dental laboratory for the fabrication of the final veneer.
- Temporary. Fourth, a temporary porcelain veneer is bonded onto the tooth as the final restoration can take a week or two to return to the dental office.
- Placement. Finally, the final restoration arrives at the dental office, and patients come in to have their temporary veneer removed and their permanent one adhered to the prepared tooth.
