Dental Veneers are thin, regular shells that cover the front teeth for people who want a Hollywood smile. They are a cosmetic procedure that aims to improve the shape and color of the teeth and hide some dental defects. They are also relatively easy and do not require surgical operations.

Advantages of dental veneers

Veneers help deal with many aesthetic dental problems, including tooth yellowing and discoloration, gaps, cavities, crookedness, and the loss of small parts of the tooth. In general, its most important advantages are as follows:

- It is a non-surgical procedure and does not rely on surgical incisions, stitches, etc.

- It helps to correct most types of apparent dental defects.

- The veneer results are considered permanent and do not need to be replaced again.

- According to case evaluations, the Hollywood smile from dental veneers is the best.

- Veneers provide a natural appearance to the teeth in shape and color.

The veneer's color can be chosen to make the teeth appear brighter and whiter.

- Dental veneers are stain-resistant.

- Dental veneers are strong and do not require a lot of shaping, like crowns.

How are dental veneers made?

- First, the doctor examines and photographs and determines the number of teeth on which you want to place veneers

- In the second visit, the doctor uses a tool to remove part of the tooth enamel, and then an impression of the teeth is made based on which the veneer is prepared.

- In the third visit, which usually takes place after one to two weeks, the doctor confirms the veneer's compatibility with the teeth and then begins cleaning and sterilizing them well before placing the veneer.

- The doctor files part of the tooth to obtain a rough texture more suitable for attaching the veneer.

- Finally, the veneers are attached to the teeth using adhesive, which is hardened and strengthened by ultraviolet rays.

Important tips for maintaining dental veneers

Some tips will help you maintain the results of dental veneers for as long as possible, including the following:

- Eat solid foods with the molars and back teeth only; try not to use your front teeth to chew or grind anything hard.

- Do not open packages and cans using your teeth; there are household tools for this purpose.

- If you practice sports, wear a mouth guard when training, especially in violent and combat sports.

- If you have a habit of clenching your teeth while sleeping, you can get a dental splint to protect the veneers while you sleep.

- Cut solid foods into smaller pieces before eating them, and do not use your teeth to break them.

- Do not bite your nails or bite and chew hard objects such as pens and toys.
