Madison Porcelain Veneers - Dr. James Amstadt
Serving Sun Prairie and Madison Veneers Patients
Cosmetic dentistry is transforming lives through complete smile makeovers, and porcelain veneers lead the list of aesthetic treatments as a wildly popular procedure. If you're considering porcelain veneers for a new smile, here's what you can expect…
Your Treatment with Sun Prairie / Madison Porcelain Veneers Provider Dr. Amstadt
Dental veneers are thin shells of tooth-like material that are bonded to the surface of the teeth in order to cover chips, cracks, discoloration or unevenness. With porcelain veneers, your smile can be transformed and made beautiful and white in one or two visits to Dr. Amstadt. If you want an eye-catching smile, porcelain veneers offer an amazing option.
To provide you with your new veneers, Dr. Amstadt, a leading porcelain veneers Madison / Sun Prairie provider, will need to thoroughly examine your teeth and assess your oral health and existing dentition. He will discuss with you the kind of smile you envision. Be prepared to discuss the color and shape of your ideal smile. Dr. Amstadt will take notes on the shade of your teeth, your facial features, and measurements of your face. He'll consider your skin tone and facial symmetry when designing your veneers.
To prepare your teeth for their new veneers, Dr. Amstadt will gently buff them to remove 1 to 2 mm of enamel. Tooth reduction will allow the veneers to lie flat, in line with surrounding teeth. Reshaping of teeth may also be required to create the look you want. You will likely receive a local anesthetic to minimize discomfort during the tooth preparation process.
One-Visit Porcelain Veneers
Dr. Amstadt now offers porcelain veneers in one visit using the latest technology known as CEREC (Chairside Economic Restoration of Esthetic Ceramics). At your porcelain veneers appointment, Dr. Amstadt will prepare your teeth and take digital images. Using CEREC, Dr. Amstadt will design veneers that look beautifully natural. CEREC will mill your new veneers from shade-matched porcelain, and Dr. Amstadt will place them during the same visit. Made to Dr. Amstadt's exacting specifications, your porcelain veneers will compliment your face shape, skin tone and overall image. You'll feel empowered by your new image, and you may pursue formerly intimidating goals in your career, social and personal life.
Two-Visit Porcelain Veneers
Patients who require extensive work may need two or more visits to complete the veneer placement process. In these cases, at the first visit, Dr. Amstadt will take an impression of your mouth to be sent to a lab, where your custom veneers will be fabricated. Before you leave the dental chair, temporary veneers will be placed. Your teeth may feel sensitive until the permanent veneers are placed, usually within six weeks.
At your next visit, Dr. Amstadt will place the veneers on your teeth. A local anesthetic may be administered to ensure your complete comfort during veneer placement. Dr. Amstadt will remove the temporary veneers and check the fit of your permanent veneers. You can look at the shape, color, and fit before they are attached. If adjustments need to be made, you should tell Dr. Amstadt at this time. Veneers cannot be altered once in place.
If all is well, Dr. Amstadt will permanently bond the new veneers to the front surface of your teeth. First, he will apply a mild acidic solution to clean the surface of your teeth, then he will bond the veneers in place. A small light will cure the bonding material. Dr. Amstadt will make sure that the veneers allow adequate flossing space.
