VENEERS IN JOHNSTOWN, COLORADO
what are veneers?
how it works: the veneer placement process
doctor ralston will begin your consultation by discussing the issues you have with your smile and how you’d like to change it. Together, you’ll decide if veneers are the right choice for you, or if other cosmetic options will better suit your smile.
After you have decided to proceed with veneers, doctor ralston will craft a tailored treatment plan that will outline which teeth will be addressed, how many veneers you’ll need, and if any other cosmetic or restorative treatments will be required.
To prep for the procedure, doctor ralston will clean and numb your mouth, and then remove a very thin layer (0.5mm or less) of enamel from each tooth. This allows for the veneer to firmly attach to the tooth and prevents the tooth from becoming too thick from the veneer.
IMPRESSION & TEMPORARY VENEERS
Once your enamel has been trimmed, doctor ralston will take a series of impressions and pictures of your teeth. This info will be sent to a dental lab, where your permanent veneers will be created. You’ll leave our office with temporary resin veneers to protect your teeth until your permanent veneers are back from the lab.
PERMANENT VENEER FITTING & ADJUSTMENT
After doctor ralston has received your permanent veneers, you’ll be called back to our office for a fitting appointment. At this time, doctor ralston will ensure your new veneers look and feel natural.
Once doctor ralston has checked the fit of your veneers, they’ll be permanently attached to your teeth using powerful dental cement. You’ll then be ready to leave our office and head home with a beautiful, brand-new smile.
