Who Needs Dental Veneers And How To Take Care Of Them

Uneven, crooked, and discolored teeth affect the smile of an individual. Dental veneers are an easy and quick way to improve your smile. If you have discolored teeth as a result of tetracycline stains, fluoride stains, deformed or malformed teeth you may be a candidate of dental veneers.

Dental veneers are thin porcelain jackets that are adhered to the teeth. The teeth are minimally prepared so a majority of the tooth structure is saved. Periodically in some cases dental veneers do de-bond requiring to be put back on.

The patient needs to take care of the dental veneers meticulously. Brushing twice a day, flossing, and using a Watperik is highly recommended by Dr. Sirisha Bhandaru of Carrollton Smiles. Gum health is very important in the success and failure of dental veneers. A custom fabricated dental night guard made by your general or family dentist is recommended to prolong the life of your veneers.
