Care For Your Veneers and They Will Last
Tooth veneers in South Pasadena are made to last a very long time.
With the proper care of your veneers, they have the potential to last you a lifetime. Veneers, for the most part, can be treated like your normal, real teeth. When it comes to care, proper brushing and flossing techniques at home are important just like they would be without the veneers, and so are your regular visits twice a year for cleanings. One of the most important things to consider after getting porcelain veneers in South Pasadena is their ability to chip or break. Veneers are strong, however, you should take extra care of them by avoiding habits that can harm them. Nail biting, chewing ice and grinding your teeth are just a few to avoid. You will want to steer clear of any activity that may dislodge the veneer.

The Porcelain Veneer Process
Getting porcelain veneers in South Pasadena is a multiple step process that requires multiple visits.
Getting veneers is a simple, but multi-step process that usually requires two visits. The first visit will mainly involve preparing your real teeth for the application of the porcelain veneers. In order to prepare your teeth, they will have to be reshaped in order to support the veneers correctly. Your teeth will be buffed and shaved to shape them correctly before applying the veneers. Porcelain veneers in South Pasadena are bonded to the tooth, so shaping them is necessary to ensure proper fit, especially when considering thickness. You want veneers to feel like your actual teeth, which means it is necessary for them to be just as smooth. Once your teeth have been prepared, the cosmetic dentist will take an impression or mold of your teeth to create the veneers. The proper color of the veneers to match your real teeth will also be noted. This usually concludes the first visit, and the second visit will be scheduled. Your veneers are created between your first and second visits. Your second visit will encompass the application of your tooth veneers. Your teeth will be cleaned with a special formula that aids the bonding of the veneer against the tooth. Bonding cement is used to place the veneers to the teeth, which will harden and bond.
