Dental Veneers & Dental Laminates in Metairie
We provide dental veneers so that patients can restore damaged teeth or transform their smile into something beautiful. At Charvet Dental Center, we often treat patients that have a variety of dental concerns. Some patients visit our Metairie office because they break their tooth, while others are looking to create a Hollywood smile. Most people are candidates for the procedure as long as their tooth structure and roots are in place. If, however, you have a cavity or gum disease, this will need to be treated before we complete the procedure.
If you want to learn more about dental veneers, we recommend that you call (504) 834-6504 to schedule an appointment. We are a provider of veneers and can let you know if they will help you to achieve the goals that you have for your smile.
What Is a Dental Veneer?
A veneer is a thin shell that is made out of porcelain or ceramic. The shade of the veneer and its shape and size will be made to match your surrounding teeth so that it blends in perfectly.
We also use dental veneers for restorations. When teeth become cracked, chipped or broken, a veneer can restore the tooth to its full functionality.
As long as the tooth structure is intact, we can restore the appearance of a tooth while making it possible to eat and speak without feeling any discomfort.
How Is a Dental Veneer Used?
At Charvet Dental Center, we can accomplish a variety of things using dental veneers. By placing veneers on top of the teeth, we can close gaps, make teeth even in length, cover dark stains and create a uniform-looking smile.
In this way, veneers can create a smile that rivals the most famous Hollywood stars. The nice thing is that you do not have to be famous to improve your smile. You simply need to call 504-834-6504 and schedule an appointment to see Dr. Charvet and Dr. Charvet Jr.
Benefits of Dental Veneers
One main benefit of veneers that patients enjoy is how the veneers make their teeth look. This procedure is an excellent solution since the veneers can transform your smile into one that looks perfect and beautiful. The veneer uses your natural teeth, so there is no need for surgery, and the recovery time is reduced.
Since the veneers are made to match your other teeth, they will look natural, and no one will be able to tell that you had any cosmetic dentistry work completed. Another benefit is that they are made out of a stain-resistant material. This means that your teeth will stay whiter and brighter, even if your favorite beverage is a hot cup of coffee. At Charvet Dental Center, we can use dental veneers to transform your smile.
The Downside
As with most cosmetic procedures, some discomfort can be associated with getting dental veneers installed. This is to be expected, however, we do our best to keep patients comfortable during the procedure so that you will not experience any pain while the veneers are being placed or your teeth are being prepared.
The process can take several weeks so there will be a period where you need to be careful about what you eat and what activities you engage in. In other words, do not play football after getting temporary veneers placed onto your teeth. You should schedule the procedure for a time when you will be close to home and able to take it easy.
