The close scrutiny that we place on smiles in today’s image-obsessed world has had many evaluating the look of their own. To help those wanting to refresh the appearance of their smiles, there is a myriad of cosmetic dental solutions that straighten teeth, brighten teeth, close up gaps and conceal chipped or broken teeth. One such dental aesthetic solution that hides a multitude of dental flaws are veneers London.
Veneers London has consistently remained a highly favoured option for patients, thanks to the many desirable advantages on offer.
It is of course crucial that in order to receive high-quality results, a patient must choose a dental practitioner with careful consideration, for it is skill and experience that is more likely to deliver exceptional and natural-looking results.
At DRMR, we are well-acquainted with the aesthetic goals of patients who look to cosmetic dentistry to give them the smile of their dreams. This is why we only rely on premium quality materials in our veneers London treatment plans.
In this post, we take a look at some of the more pertinent considerations patients should be aware of before choosing veneers to improve their dental appearance.
What to know when opting for veneers
Veneers can offer a long life of service. The design of these dental caps may be simple – wafer-thin coverings placed over enamel – but this does not take away from its strength and durability. Provided that the patient looks after their veneers by adhering to all the aftercare guidelines, they can enjoy the polished look of their smiles for a long time to come.
In caring for their dental caps, patients may be asked to avoid certain harmful behaviours such as using teeth for purposes other than eating, like tearing off bottle caps. It may also be wise to limit or avoid foods that are well-known to stain teeth. One of the best habits to safeguard a beautiful smile is to be rigid in one’s oral hygiene obligations. Brushing and flossing teeth not only help to control the accumulation of bad bacteria in the mouth by keeping teeth clean but also work to keep gums healthy and disease-free.
Some patients will require their teeth to be prepared prior to the placing of veneers. This necessity can only be ascertained during a consultation with our cosmetic dentist since much depends on the patient’s oral situation. Preparation for veneers involves our dentist shaving off a little of the enamel before applying a dental adhesive to bond the dental cap to the tooth.
While dental caps can work to solve many dental issues, there are some conditions that may affect a patient’s suitability for the treatment option. These conditions include severe tooth decay and oral infections.
Dental caps are a great option for patients with minor cosmetic issues with their smiles; this is the treatment plan that allows patients to fix their smiles while retaining their natural teeth.
