Porcelain Veneers
Porcelain veneers can help enhance your smile and conceal discoloration, stains, and decay by placing a porcelain cover over the tooth.
Overview
One fast method to enhance your smile and conceal crooked, chipped, stained, or decayed teeth is using porcelain veneers. Cosmetic veneers are slim covers created with porcelain, which may be secured to the front of the teeth to enhance the look of your smile. Offering personalized veneers and minimal prep, board-certified dentist Dr. Brian Wong will aid in improving the size, color, length, or shape of the teeth. Schedule a consultation at Wong D.D.S. P.A. (formerly Stonebriar Dental) in Frisco, TX to find out more information about veneers and decide if they’re appropriate for your dental goals.
Best Candidates
Cosmetic veneers may be used to rapidly enhance the look of your smile by hiding stains and chips in your teeth, as well as worn down or misaligned teeth, and teeth that are unevenly spaced or shaped. At Brian Wong D.D.S. P.A. (formerly Stonebriar Dental), your cosmetic veneers will be custom created to fit snugly over your teeth and also appear appealing, but still natural. In your consultation, one of our certified dentists will listen to your objectives and concerns in order to personalize your procedure. They may also check to determine whether you’re a good candidate for cosmetic veneers by analyzing the total health of your mouth. You shouldn’t have symptoms of gum problems or routinely grind your teeth and clench or jawing in order to receive veneers.
What to Expect
When you’ve decided on your distinctive treatment program using, your dentist will take digital or physical impressions of your teeth. Your cosmetic veneers could be created in our office as you wait using CEREC technology or your impressions could be sent to a dental lab where your veneers will be made from high-quality porcelain. Whenever your custom veneers are prepared, a little bit of enamel in front of your teeth will need to be shaved down. This allows room for the porcelain veneers and enhances the bond for outcomes that seem more natural and last longer. At the time that your porcelain veneers are secured, small alterations may be made so that your veneers fit well.
Recovery
Since the positioning of veneers usually doesn’t need anesthesia, you ought to be able to get back to your daily tasks following your appointment. You might have sensitivity to cold and hot meals for a couple of days, but that should stop on its own. Veneers should be cared for just like your own natural teeth with frequent flossing and brushing. While cosmetic veneers are somewhat more stain-resistant compared to your enamel, you still need to prevent consuming staining drinks and food to keep your veneers white. To prevent chipping your veneers, you shouldn’t chew on hard objects, like your fingernails or ice. Continue to go to dental examinations and cleanings in Brian Wong D.D.S. P.A. (formerly Stonebriar Dental) so that we can track the condition of your cosmetic veneers, teeth, and general oral health. Your dentist will let you know in case your porcelain veneers will need to be replaced or repaired.

Porcelain veneers are an elective treatment, so they’re generally not included in dental insurance. Brian Wong D.D.S. P.A. does take many payment options, for example low-interest medical financing to make your veneers more affordable. At the consult, we will personalize your plan to meet your needs and budget.
