Porcelain Veneers in Redondo Beach, CA
Porcelain Veneers
Veneers are the ultimate combination of dental art and science, handcrafted and customized to fit your smile. These paper-thin pieces of porcelain bond to the outside of your natural teeth. Veneers are highly versatile and can replicate all the complexity of a natural tooth.
WHAT ARE VENEERS?
Veneers are thin shells of porcelain placed over the front of your teeth. Veneers only require a small amount of tooth structure to be removed and are perfect for people looking to change the minor appearance of a tooth or a few teeth. When designing the veneers, your doctor will consider your input and incorporate your desires into your veneer case. The color and shape can be customized to fit your unique wants and needs.
Your Smile Is Our REward
At South Redondo Dental Group, watching patients see their brilliant new smile for the first time is the highlight of our day. Sometimes referred to as instant orthodontics, veneers can dramatically transform your smile. A set of veneers can correct chips, stains, and even deeply discolored teeth. But they can also alter the length and size of teeth or help give the appearance of a straight tooth where there is not. While it may sound dramatic, it isn’t. Veneers provide a highly conservative approach to esthetic smile makeovers.

How To Get Started
Good Planning Paves The Way
There’s a lot of diagnostic work and careful planning that goes into a treatment plan that includes veneers. Models, photographs, and digital x-rays allow you and the doctor to create a perfect blueprint to guide your treatment from start to finish. Like all successful projects, this planning can’t be compromised. Your dentist will consider your input and incorporate your desires into your veneer case, from color to shape and everything in between.
Next Steps
Once the doctor plans your case, it will take around two appointments before you leave with a stunning new smile. At the first visit, the teeth are gently prepared to allow space for the ultra-thin porcelain to be crafted by a master lab technician.
The doctor will create temporary restorations that mimic the veneers, which you’ll wear for up to three weeks. These temporaries provide a preview of your new smile and let you try it out to see if any further changes are needed.
Bonding Your New Veneers
After your veneers have been masterfully crafted to our doctor’s specific instructions, you’ll return for a second appointment. The dentist will try in each veneer and evaluate the appearance and fit. They will go through several steps to precisely bond the thin veneers to the surface of your teeth, creating an incredibly strong bond between tooth and porcelain. Minor adjustments to your bite and a final polish will leave you with a smile that may have you wondering why you waited so long to find South Redondo Dental Group.
