Tooth veneers are thin coverings of natural-looking porcelain or ceramic that your dentist in Sunnyvale, CA, places on the fronts of teeth that show when you smile. A veneer covers tooth imperfections to give
your smile a flawless appearance.
Cosmetic Issues We Fix with Veneers
Because they conceal the tooth beneath, we use veneers to hide numerous smile flaws:
- Chipped teeth
- Cracked or broken teeth
- Wide or uneven gaps
- Spacing issues
- Teeth that appear too short
- Slightly misaligned teeth
- Stained or discolored teeth
Steps for Getting Veneers in Sunnyvale
If you want veneers in Sunnyvale, CA, you can plan on two appointments at Spruce Dental. The first involves removing a thin layer of tooth enamel to make space for the veneers. Next, we take impressions of the tooth we use to create temporary veneers.
We choose an appropriate shade of white for your veneers so they blend naturally into your smile. A trusted custom dental lab in our area then prepares your final veneers.
It takes 2–3 weeks for the lab to custom-craft your veneers. You’ll return to our dental office when they’re ready, and our dentist checks them for fit, makes adjustments, and cements them securely to your teeth.
How Long Do Veneers Last?
Like all tooth restorations, the better you care for your veneers in Sunnyvale, the longer they will last. If you brush and floss consistently and visit us for routine teeth cleanings and exams, your veneers can last 10 years or longer.
