Are you yearning for a radiant, Hollywood-style smile right here in Spokane? Veneers could be your answer. Dental veneers are thin, custom-made shells of tooth-colored materials designed to cover the front surface of your teeth to improve their appearance. These shells are bonded to the front of your teeth, changing their color, shape, size, or length. Veneers can be made from porcelain or resin composite materials, and they provide a natural tooth appearance. They are a popular choice among individuals who want to enhance their smile and boost their confidence.
Why Should I Get Veneers?
If you're dissatisfied with your smile due to discolored, worn down, chipped, broken, uneven, irregularly shaped, or misaligned teeth, veneers can be a transformative solution. They offer a conservative approach to changing a tooth's color and shape, and they generally don't require the extensive shaping that crowns do, yet offer a stronger, more aesthetic alternative. Veneers also provide a protective shield to your damaged teeth, preventing further harm. By choosing veneers, you're not only investing in an aesthetically pleasing smile but also in the long-term health of your teeth.

The Benefits Of Veneers
Enhanced Appearance
Veneers significantly improve your smile by correcting various dental issues such as discoloration, fractures, and gaps. They are custom-made to fit your teeth perfectly, ensuring a natural and appealing look. With veneers, you can flaunt a brighter, more uniform smile that boosts your self-esteem and makes you more approachable.
Durability
Veneers are incredibly durable. They are resistant to stains and chipping, which means they can withstand the rigors of everyday life. With proper care, veneers can last up to 15 years or even longer, making them a wise long-term investment for your oral health.
Minimal Invasive Procedure
The veneers procedure is minimally invasive compared to other dental restorations. Only a small amount of your natural tooth structure is removed to place the veneer, preserving more of your natural tooth. This makes the procedure more comfortable and less stressful for patients.
The Veneers Treatment Process
Consultation and Treatment Planning
Your journey to a beautiful smile begins with a consultation with Dr. Stephen Griffith at Grand Corner Dental. During this initial appointment, your oral health will be evaluated, and your smile goals discussed to ensure veneers are the right solution for you.
Preparation
Once it's determined that veneers are the right option, the next step is preparation. Dr. Griffith will remove a small amount of enamel from your tooth's surface, roughly equal to the thickness of the veneer to be added. Next, an impression of your tooth will be made to create your custom veneer.
Bonding
The final step is the bonding of the veneer to your tooth. Dr. Griffith will temporarily place the veneer on your tooth to examine its fit and color, making any necessary adjustments. Once the veneer is perfectly adjusted, it's permanently cemented to your tooth, giving you the beautiful smile you've always desired.
