“For patients with a good foundation of oral health, veneers are an excellent option for correcting cosmetic imperfections. Mild crowding or spacing, color variance, or shape asymmetries are all great reasons to pursue minimally invasive veneers. These restorations are completely customizable, so we can work together to craft the perfect-looking veneer for your brand new smile. Anyone can make teeth look good for a day, but we want to make them look great for a lifetime.”

Frequently Asked Questions

How long do veneers last?

Veneers are not just a cosmetic investment, but a long-term commitment to your oral health. The longevity of veneers can vary widely, depending on several factors such as the quality of the veneer material, the expertise of your dentist, and your personal oral hygiene habits. On average, you can expect high-quality porcelain veneers, like those offered at Caldera Dental Group by Dr. Christopher Primley, to last anywhere from 10 to 15 years. Some may even last up to 20 years with proper care. It’s important to note that while veneers are durable, they are not indestructible. Just like natural teeth, they can chip or break if not cared for properly. Regular check-ups, good oral hygiene, and avoiding hard or crunchy foods can help extend the lifespan of your veneers.

What happens to teeth under veneers?

The process of getting veneers involves a certain degree of preparation of your natural teeth. This usually includes removing a small amount of enamel to make room for the veneers and to create a rougher surface for better adhesion. Once the veneers are bonded to your teeth, they act as a new outer layer, providing strength and resilience comparable to natural tooth enamel. Your underlying teeth remain largely the same, although they are now covered by the veneers. It’s crucial to maintain good oral hygiene as decay can still occur on the natural tooth underneath the veneer. Regular visits to your dentist in Redmond, Dr. Christopher Primley, can help ensure your veneers and the underlying teeth stay healthy.

Can you go back to normal teeth after veneers?

The decision to get veneers is not one to take lightly. Because the process involves the removal of some tooth enamel, it is generally considered irreversible. Once the enamel is removed, it does not grow back, which means your teeth will always need to be covered with a veneer or crown to protect them. If your veneers are worn out or damaged, they will need to be replaced. It’s important to discuss this aspect with your dentist before deciding on veneers. Dr. Christopher Primley at Caldera Dental Group is always available to discuss these concerns and can provide expert advice tailored to your individual needs and circumstances.

Are veneers painful?

The process of getting veneers usually involves some degree of discomfort, but it should not be outright painful. The preparation stage, which involves removing a small amount of tooth enamel, is done under local anesthesia, so you should not feel pain during the procedure. Some patients may experience sensitivity or mild discomfort after the anesthesia wears off, but this typically subsides within a few days. With modern dental techniques and technologies, discomfort can be minimized. At Caldera Dental Group, Dr. Christopher Primley and his team strive to make the veneer process as comfortable and pain-free as possible, ensuring a positive and relaxed experience for every patient.

Lovely people. I felt very well taken care of. The hygienist worked with me to reduce the number of cleanings I needed per year by helping me improve my daily cleaning routine.
