What Are Dental Veneers?

A man holding samples of veneers. Dental veneers are thin, resilient shells that resemble the natural color of your enamel. They attach to the front surface of your teeth to correct and enhance your smile aesthetics. Dental veneers are typically made from porcelain or resin composite materials and are permanently attached to the teeth. These shells are a popular treatment because they address mild to moderate issues and enhance aesthetics while being minimally invasive.

Veneers are an excellent solution for many dental imperfections and are used to address several different cosmetic concerns, including broken, discolored, chipped, or smaller-than-average teeth. Some people may only need one veneer for a single chipped or broken tooth. However, many individuals get between six and eight veneers so as to create a symmetrical and even-toned smile.

Dr. Golodriga uses dental veneers in Burlingame to address a wide variety of cosmetic concerns, including:

Masking minor cracks and chips
Reshaping large or small looking teeth
Reducing unwanted gaps between teeth
Concealing severe discoloration
Correcting minor misalignment

Our Options for Dental Veneers

At Burlingame Dentist, we only provide our clients with the most resilient, beautiful, and safe materials possible. We have the following options available and will work with you to choose the right choice for your needs and budget.

Porcelain: Dental porcelain is renowned for its ability to mimic the translucency and characteristics of natural tooth enamel. Porcelain veneers are so realistic that it's often difficult to tell them apart from natural teeth. They are stain-resistant and resilient enough to withstand daily chewing for over ten years with proper care.
Composite: Composite resin is also a tooth-colored material that we provide. We are proud to offer Uveneer as our composite solution. These veneers are completed in a single visit and are budget-friendly. Our dentist takes the time to explain the process to you and help you get the results you're looking for. Although composite material veneers have a shorter lifespan, they can easily be repaired, returning you to daily life quickly.

The Process of Getting Dental Veneers

Receiving dental veneers in Burlingame takes multiple steps and can be completed in one or two appointments, depending on the type of veneer. On your first visit, we begin with a detailed consultation to discuss your situation, needs, and treatment goals. Dr. Golodriga then conducts a thorough examination assessing the health of your teeth and gums. From this assessment, we develop a detailed treatment plan that includes your veneers' best shape, shade, and placement.

With porcelain veneers, our team will then take detailed impressions of your teeth. The dentist prepares your teeth for your custom veneers and takes final impressions to send to the lab for crafting, which takes approximately two weeks. When you return, our dentist will carefully place the veneers on each tooth and educate you on how to care for them.

With the use of Uveneer, we can also provide chair-side composite material veneers with desired shape and symmetry, all in one visit. The template mimics your natural dentition, which allows us to create high-quality, natural-looking results. Our team works with you to determine if Uveneer single-visit veneers are best for your needs.

Do You Qualify for Dental Veneers?

You will likely qualify for veneers if you are an adult with good oral and general health. However, it is essential to note that although this treatment can address various smile issues, it can only be administered if you have healthy teeth and gums. Our dentist will discuss your options after the consultation and examination, including how to improve your oral health if needed.

Veneers FAQs

It's normal to have questions about dental veneers. That's why our team is here to answer any that you may have. Some of the most frequently asked questions about veneers include:

How long will my veneers last?

How long your veneers last depend on how well you care for them. With proper oral care and regular dental visits, your veneers can last a decade or longer.

Are veneers stain resistant?

Although it's important that you reduce your consumption of darkly pigmented foods and drinks like coffee, tea, and tomato sauce, your dental veneers are highly resistant to changes in shade. However, if your veneers are beginning to stain, contact our office to schedule the placement of new veneers.

Will my veneers be sensitive to hot or cold?

Immediately following the placement of your new veneers, it's normal to experience some increased sensitivity to hot or cold. However, you can expect any sensitivity to disappear over the next few days as your smile adapts to its new restorations.
