Why Are Partial Veneers Needed?<\/h2>\n
Partial veneers also act as a replacement for eroded tooth enamel which can cause sensitivity, pain, and discomfort. Lost tooth enamel can\u2019t be replaced with natural substances, so partial veneers can be used in its place to protect your teeth from surface damages and sensitivity.<\/p>\n
Most people tend to get partial veneers to cover up minor cracks, cavities, and tooth discolouration as a cosmetic alternative to full veneers. Although there are many benefits to getting partial veneers, there are a few important things you should know before making the decision.<\/p>\n
Partial veneers can\u2019t always be made to match the precise colour and shape of your other teeth, but your dentist will ensure that the differences are hardly noticeable to the naked eye. Also, once partial veneers are placed, they can\u2019t be whitened. So if you\u2019re planning on whitening or cleaning your teeth, you need to get that done before the partial veneers are placed.<\/p>\n

No one will ever know that you\u2019ve had any dental work done unless you choose to share that information.<\/p>\n Partial veneers are paper thin and made out of composite porcelain material that\u2019s bonded directly to your damaged or discoloured tooth. Although they are durable, they must fit the exact shape of your tooth and may be reshaped if need be. It\u2019s important that the dentist fits the veneer to the exact shape and size of your tooth to ensure discretion and longevity.<\/p>\n As long as they\u2019re placed correctly and you take excellent care of your teeth, the chances of partial veneers becoming damaged or discoloured are very slim.<\/p>\n The process for placing partial veneers is fairly simple but it can take some time to complete.<\/p>\n First, you need to visit your dentist for an initial consultation during which they\u2019ll examine all your teeth and diagnose the problem. During this same consultation, they might determine the type of dental procedure that would work best for your situation. They\u2019ll explain all of your options to you so that you can make an informed decision. They may even take a few x-ray images to determine which teeth need correction.<\/p>\n Next, your dentist will prepare the damaged tooth for the veneer by removing a small amount of enamel if there\u2019s still any left. Prior to this portion of the procedure, you and your dentist will need to agree whether local anesthesia is necessary and how much of it is suitable for you. That mostly depends on your threshold for pain and discomfort, though. Some patients require very little to no anesthesia whereas others may feel excruciating pain and require a large dose. Make sure you discuss this with your dentist beforehand.<\/p>\n After that, your dentist will take an impression of your teeth, which will either be sent out to a dental laboratory or manufactured onsite if your dentist\u2019s office has the proper facilities. On average, the construction process takes about 2-4 weeks. However, in cases where patients can\u2019t wait that long, a temporary dental veneer can be placed until the permanent one is ready.<\/p>\n Once the tooth is aptly prepared, the partial veneer can be properly bonded. Before permanently cementing the veneer to your tooth, however, your dentist will want to double check that it\u2019s the correct shape, size, and colour by placing it against the tooth. If any of those components are a little off, then the veneer can either be sent back to the dental laboratory to be corrected or your dentist can make the necessary adjustments in their office.<\/p>\n After installing the veneers in place with the cement, your dentist will then shine a bright beam directly on the tooth with the new veneer. This bright light activates the chemicals in the bonding agent that causes it to harden quickly and immediately to hold the veneer in place. Any excess cement is then carefully removed, and your dentist will test your bite to make sure that all your teeth\u2014especially your new partial veneer\u2014are perfectly aligned.<\/p>\n Princeview Dental Group<\/strong> has been a dental clinic in The Kingsway neighbourhood for more than 25 years.
