Veneers treatment in Kennesaw, GA: What to expect
Dr. Kalantari begins with a thorough examination of your mouth. Existing dental problems such as tooth decay or gum disease must be addressed before cosmetic services are performed. Then, it takes just two appointments to transform your smile.
At the first, a tiny amount of enamel is removed from teeth that will have veneers. This allows the veneer to seat snugly at the gum line. You may be a candidate for no-prep veneers. This ultra-thin type requires no enamel reduction and allows the option of returning to your natural smile.
Impressions of your mouth are taken, and the doctor sends them, along with detailed shading information, to a dental ceramist. It takes the lab a week or two to handcraft your veneers. Meanwhile, temporary veneers are placed to protect your teeth from sensitivity.
When you return to Dentistry and Orthodontics at Kennesaw Point, temporaries are painlessly removed. Your new veneers are fitted, trimmed (if minute adjustments are needed), and cemented in place. With a final polish, your new smile is radiant.
