Dental veneers in Salt Lake City can transform the size, shape, or color of one or more teeth, giving you a smile you feel confident sharing. At Holladay Smiles, Dr. Michael T. Smith uses CEREC technology to design and place many veneers in a single office visit.
A veneer is a thin, custom-made shell bonded to the front surface of a tooth to change its shape, size, or color. Veneers are commonly used to address chips, gaps, discoloration, or teeth that are slightly misaligned, and because they are made from durable ceramic material, they are designed to resist staining over time. Most patients with generally healthy teeth and gums are candidates for veneers, whether treating a single tooth or several teeth as part of a broader smile makeover.
Here are some key benefits of dental veneers:
- Natural, customized appearance: Veneers are designed to match the exact shape and shade you want for your smile.
- Stain resistance: Ceramic veneers resist staining better than natural enamel.
- Conservative treatment: Only a thin layer of the tooth surface is typically prepared to make room for the veneer.
- Same-day option: With CEREC technology, many veneers can be designed and placed in a single visit.
To place your veneers, Dr. Smith prepares the tooth surface, takes a digital scan, and designs your veneer to achieve your desired shape and shade. With CEREC, the veneer is then milled in our office and bonded into place the same day, eliminating the wait for a lab-made veneer in many cases. Veneers are cared for just like your natural teeth, with regular brushing, flossing, and dental checkups.
