VENEERS
WE’LL MAKE YOU SMILE!
Veneers, porcelain veneers, laminates, facings, Lumineers, Durathin, Vivaneers. These are all words that mean basically the same thing. They are all different ways to name or describe the placing of thin ceramic/porcelain tooth-shaped pieces over the front surface of a natural tooth to alter the shape, size, color and/or angulation. If you have ever seen your favorite celebrity and wondered how they have such perfect, straight, white teeth, most likely it is because they have most or all of their front teeth covered with veneers. Veneers can fix many different dental issues. Spaces can be closed, teeth can be made straight, chipped or worn teeth can be made to look whole again and discolored or stained teeth can be made whiter.
Typically dental veneers require some of the front surface as well as the edge of the tooth to be reduced. Once that is done the custom-made ceramic pieces are bonded to the existing teeth with a special “glue.” The edges are all polished smooth and the new smile is ready for the spotlight (literally we have to shine a bright light on the veneer “glue” to bond to your teeth!) Veneers are as durable as your natural teeth. You can eat, drink, chew, speak just like normal. Please don’t use veneers or your teeth to open beer bottles! Brushing and flossing are just as important for the proper dental care of veneers as they are your natural teeth.
THIS IS US
As a full-service dental design studio, Cosmetic Dentistry of Murfreesboro also offers the following cosmetic services:
Teeth Whitening (aka Bleaching)
Crowns
Bonding
Clear Aligner Therapy (aka Invisalign)
Dental Implants
Dr. Nicholson applies the same expertise and artistry when additional repairs are needed in the best interest of the patient’s health, like:
Tooth-colored fillings: Sometimes referred to as “composite” or “white” fillings, these are safe and durable when a cavity needs to be filled.
Clear Aligner Therapy also known by the trade name “Invisalign.” This is where clear removable trays are used to straighten your teeth without ugly wire braces.
Root Canals: Sometimes referred to as “endodontics,” root canals can save a tooth even when its soft interior (called the “pulp chamber”) becomes infected. Once we clean out what’s bothering your tooth, it will continue to function without the pain and sensitivity you were likely experiencing before the procedure.
Emergency care: Yes, call us. Yes, we will see you. Priority is given to regularly scheduled patients.
