Dental veneers are a cosmetic dental treatment used to improve the appearance of the front surfaces of teeth. At Maple Ridge Smiles Dental, Dr. Mitra Ghaderi provides veneer consultations to help patients explore whether this treatment may be appropriate based on their oral health and aesthetic goals.
What Are Dental Veneers?
Dental veneers are thin shells that are placed over the front of teeth. They may be used to address cosmetic concerns like:
- Tooth discoloration
- Minor misalignment
- Uneven spacing
- Worn or chipped teeth
Veneers are carefully planned and customized to match the shape, size, and shade of your natural teeth.
We offer the following dental veneers at Maple Ridge Smiles Dental:
Porcelain Veneers
Porcelain veneers are custom-made restorations designed to provide durability and a natural appearance. They are fabricated in a dental laboratory and require careful preparation and planning.
The Veneer Process
The process of receiving dental veneers from Maple Ridge Smiles Dental typically includes:
- A consultation and oral examination
- Discussion of treatment goals and options
- Tooth preparation (when required)
- Fabrication of your custom veneers
- Placement and final adjustments
The exact process may vary depending on the type of veneer and your individual treatment plan.
Suitability and Assessment
Dental veneers are an elective cosmetic treatment and should be assessed in accordance with BC College of Dental Surgeons guidelines. They are not appropriate for every patient. Results depend on individual oral health, enamel thickness, and aftercare. Factors such as oral health, bite alignment, and existing dental conditions are considered when determining suitability. Dr. Ghaderi will review your individual situation and discuss whether veneers may be a suitable option for you.
