If the teeth in the front of your mouth have been affected by chronic dental stains or one of your teeth has discolored tooth enamel, it can leave you with an unsightly and unattractive smile. Rather than trying to live with these cosmetic imperfections, you should consider scheduling a consultation appointment with Dr. Chad Ellis and the staff specialists at The Smile Studio.
After performing a basic examination Dr. Chad Ellis can help you understand your options for improving your smile’s appearance. In many of these cases, he might recommend installing dental veneers onto the face of each one of your front teeth.
These are special shells that will be created in a professional dental lab to fit seamlessly over the faces of each tooth. The dental grade porcelain material used for the veneers will not be as receptive to dental stains as natural tooth enamel.
During the examination, Dr. Chad Ellis will assess the volume of your tooth enamel and the health of each tooth that appear in your smile. If one of your teeth has been compromised by an old filling, a new cavity, or shallow tooth enamel, he might recommend restoring it with a porcelain crown.
After the assessment, Dr. Chad Ellis will prepare a detailed impression of each tooth intended for a dental veneer. It will be sent a dental lab to be used as a guide for the dental technicians tasked with creating your dental work.
When the dental veneers are ready Dr. Chad Ellis will install them onto the appropriate teeth by first removing a small amount of tooth enamel from the face of each tooth. Then he will use a strong dental adhesive to cement each veneer into place.
