A fast method to makeover your smile and conceal chipped, crooked, stained, or decayed teeth are with custom porcelain veneers from Tupelo Smiles Family and Cosmetic Dentistry. Cosmetic veneers are thin shell-like restorations created out of high-grade porcelain that is bonded to the front of the teeth to enhance the look of your smile. Offering customized and minimal-prep veneers, talented dentists Dr. Richard Caron and Dr. John Kenney can help improve the color, size, shape, or length of teeth that show when you smile. Make an appointment at our Tupelo, MS office today to find out more about natural-looking porcelain veneers and decide if they are ideal for meeting your cosmetic dental needs.

Cosmetic veneers can be used to quickly mask chips and cracks, improve the color of your teeth, improve misaligned or worn down teeth, and fix teeth that are poorly spaced or shaped. At Tupelo Smiles Family and Cosmetic Dentistry, your porcelain veneers will be custom made to fit snugly over your teeth for an attractive and natural look. During your consultation, doctors Caron or Kenney will listen to your goals and concerns so that our team can customize your treatment. We will also provide a thorough exam to see whether you are a good candidate for cosmetic veneers by checking your overall oral health. Porcelain veneers may not be ideal if you have signs of gum disease or routinely grind your teeth and clench your jaw.

Patients shouldn't have to deal with a smile that is damaged, cracked, or missing. Porcelain veneers are an ideal solution for patients of Tupelo Smiles Family and Cosmetic Dentistry in Tupelo, MS who wish to enhance their smile. This treatment offers a wide number of benefits, such as:

• Protection against discoloration or spotting
• Very little enamel shaping required for treatment
• Little to no maintenance needed besides normal oral health regimens
• Better oral function and appearance that you can enjoy for many years

To help you gain an idea of what your new smile will look like with custom veneers, our team uses an advanced imaging software program and custom wax-ups to generate a realistic model of your projected smile. We can even create a wearable mockup of your new veneers to help you further realize if veneers are right for you. Once we have decided upon your unique treatment plan, we will begin your procedure by removing a thin layer of enamel to allow each veneer to sit evenly within your smile. Digital impressions of your teeth will be taken, from which your veneers will be crafted out of the highest-quality porcelain. When your veneers are ready, doctors Caron or Kenney will bond the veneers in place with a strong cement and polish your new restorations for a smooth and lustrous finish. 

Since getting cosmetic veneers normally does not require much anesthesia, you should be able to resume your daily activities after your appointment. You might experience sensitivity to cold and hot food for a few days, but that should subside naturally. Veneers should be cleaned just like your own natural teeth with a thorough daily flossing and brushing routine. While cosmetic veneers are stain-resistant, you should still avoid staining foods and drinks to keep your smile white. To avoid chipping your veneers, you should not chew on hard objects, like ice or your fingernails. We recommend that you keep up with routine dental examinations and cleanings at Tupelo Smiles Family and Cosmetic Dentistry so that we can monitor the condition of your cosmetic veneers, teeth, and general oral health. When they receive excellent care and attention, porcelain veneers can enhance the smile for up to ten years or longer.

How long do porcelain veneers last?

With proper care, porcelain veneers can last between 10 – 15 years. Maintaining good oral hygiene and avoiding hard foods can prolong their lifespan.

Will there be visible changes after getting porcelain veneers?

Yes, porcelain veneers provide a natural-looking improvement to the teeth's appearance, enhancing shape, color, and alignment. They are customized to blend seamlessly with your natural teeth.

What type of maintenance is required for porcelain veneers? Maintenance includes regular brushing, flossing, and dental check-ups at Tupelo Smiles Family and Cosmetic Dentistry. Avoiding habits like biting nails or chewing on hard objects is also recommended.
