They can tackle chips, cracks, gaps, discoloration, and a wide assortment of other issues, and for many patients, they are absolute life changers. Still, other patients are a little hesitant to undergo dental work, even if it\u2019s for the betterment of their smile. Keep reading below to learn about three things that every patient should know about <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vistadental.net\/cosmetic-treatments.html\">veneers<\/a>, so that you can make an informed decision that you\u2019re also excited about!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. They Indistinguishable from Natural Teeth<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Veneers are typically made from dental porcelain, which can be color-matched to the natural color of teeth. The veneers are also of the correct size and shape to blend in with a patient\u2019s natural teeth, meaning that nobody except for the patient and the dentist will even know the veneers are present! This makes veneers one of the most versatile and capable of all cosmetic treatments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. They\u2019re a Permanent Transformation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Veneers are a permanent dental solution; to apply them, a thin layer of enamel is removed from the surface of the teeth being treated. This amount is quite small\u2014roughly the same width as one of your fingernails\u2014and isn\u2019t anything that you need to worry about, as the process isn\u2019t painful! That said, it does mean that you\u2019ll always need to have veneers covering those teeth, for their own protection. This also makes veneers a cost-effective solution, since they can last longer than other cosmetic options (potentially 10 \u2013 15 years).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. They Don\u2019t Replace the Need for Sensible Oral Hygiene<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Veneers are durable and can last for many years with proper care; however, they are not indestructible. Regular oral hygiene practices, including brushing, flossing, and routine dental checkups are essential for maintaining their longevity, as well as their natural-looking appearance. Avoiding bad habits like smoking, using your teeth as tools, and biting into hard objects like ice cubes or your fingernails will also contribute to their lifespan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In any case, while veneers can significantly enhance your smile, it\u2019s crucial to have realistic expectations about what they can accomplish. While they can improve the color, shape, and other aesthetics of your teeth, they cannot address every dental issue in existence. Your dentist will help you understand what improvements can be realistically achieved through this amazing treatment option!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Practice<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The talented team at Vista Dental Care has proudly served patients and families in the Sparks, NV area for several years under the leadership of Dr. Marc Thomas and Dr. Dennez Avendano!
