What does Veneering a tooth involve?
First Step During the first visit, a local anesthetic is used and the tooth or teeth are reduced by approximately 0.5mm – 2.0mm. An impression of the teeth in this state is then taken and sent to a dental laboratory for fabrication of the veneers. This usually takes one to two weeks to complete. A temporary restoration may or may not be placed depending on the amount of reduction necessary. There may or may not be slight sensitivity to hot and cold during this period. Second Step At the second visit, a local anesthetic may be used for the patient’s comfort in seating the veneers. After thoroughly cleaning and preparing the teeth, the veneers are then placed with a resin material and cured or hardened with a special curing light.
