Dental Veneers

Dental veneers in Los Angeles can help your existing teeth look their best. Veneers are thin, custom-designed porcelain or resin shells that cover the front surface of teeth to improve color, shape, size, or length. Dental veneers are ideal for Los Angeles patients who have small gaps between their teeth, or whose teeth are discolored, worn down, chipped, or irregularly shaped.

The Procedure from a Beverly Hills Dentist

Patients usually require two to three office visits for their dental veneer procedure. At your first visit, the outer tooth enamel is roughened to provide a surface for bonding and take impressions of your teeth, which a dental laboratory uses to create your veneers. When your veneers are ready, your dentist begins placing them on the teeth, making sure they fit properly and are the correct size and color. If needed, additional shaping of the veneers can be done before they are permanently bonded.

Care for Your Veneers

Dental veneers generally last between five to 10 years before needing to be replaced. While they require no special care, patients should continue to practice good oral hygiene. Even though veneers resist stains, avoiding beverages such as coffee, tea, cola, and red wine is recommended. Veneers can chip or decay, particularly if you clench or grind your teeth, chew on hard objects like ice, or are in the habit of biting your nails.

Dr. Farnoosh is an experienced periodontist and also works closely with other dental professionals for your comprehensive treatment. After evaluating your smile and determining the services you need, he may refer you to a team member specialist who is an expert in a particular area of dental care so that you are able to receive the best treatment for your Total Smile.
