Elevate Your Smile Beauty with Veneers
If you have defects in the color, shape, or alignment of teeth that show when you smile, this can negatively impact your self-esteem. Since being introduced in the early 1980s, dental veneers have become popular for beautifying teeth, especially among celebrities. We offer porcelain veneers and Lumineers® in Clovis, CA, that provides a “new face” to imperfect teeth and help you choose the best option to create a red carpet-worthy smile!
Porcelain veneers offer unsurpassed longevity, durability, and natural-looking translucent aesthetics. As such, veneers are often the most requested procedure in smile makeovers. When you get customized Lumineers or porcelain veneers at Clovis Family Dentistry, they’ll provide the harmonious, balanced, and naturally gorgeous smile you’ve long dreamed of achieving!
Porcelain Veneers Vs. Lumineers
Veneers are about 0.5mm thick, requiring minimal enamel removal of about 1mm to ensure a seamless fit. In contrast, Lumineers are as thin as contact lenses (about 3mm). Therefore, no tooth enamel needs to be removed. This also means that traditional porcelain veneers are irreversible. At the same time, you can change your mind if you get Lumineers fabricated from a strong, patented type of porcelain.
Who Qualifies for Veneers?
As a cosmetic dentistry treatment, veneers aren’t intended to resolve functional issues such as malocclusion (bad bite). In addition, good oral health is required, so cavities and gum disease must be treated first. Porcelain veneers in Clovis, CA, are an optimal solution for resolving any of the following issues that impact teeth in your smile zone:
- Chips or cracks
- Gaps or crowding
- An uneven smile
- Discoloration or stains
- Worn-down enamel
- Minor malformation or crookedness
The Porcelain Veneers Treatment Process
When you visit Clovis Family Dentistry for dental veneers, our cosmetic dentist will sit down with you to learn about your smile concerns and what you hope to achieve with veneer teeth. After numbing the tooth, a rotating device known as a dental bur gently shaves down a small amount of the tooth’s surface.
After the tooth is shaved down, we take an impression sent to the dental lab to create a veneer in the perfect shape, shade, and style to match your unique features. At your final visit, we can make minor adjustments, last-minute trimming, and check the fit before bonding the veneer with dental cement and hardening it with a specialized blue light.
The Lumineers Procedure
When you opt for Lumineers, the process begins with impressions taken during your initial visit, which are then sent to the DentMat Lab in Lompoc, CA, to create the Lumineers. Once the Lumineers are ready, you’ll return to our practice, where our skilled team will prep your teeth with minimal invasiveness before bonding the Lumineers in place. This meticulous process ensures a precise fit and optimal aesthetics, allowing you to achieve the radiant smile you desire with confidence and comfort.
Make Your Dream Smile a Reality, Affordably
In Clovis, CA, the cost of veneers varies depending on the number of veneers needed and the specific option chosen. As veneers fall under the category of cosmetic dentistry, they typically are not covered by dental insurance. However, to make achieving your dream smile more accessible, we offer third-party financing options from reputable companies. With these financing options, you can pursue the radiant smile you desire without worrying about upfront costs, allowing you to spread payments over time and fit the treatment into your budget.
