Custom-made Solutions for Your Smile

Porcelain Veneers Thomasville

Brandyberry & Associates offers porcelain veneers at our Thomasville practice serving the greater Winston-Salem, North Carolina area.

If you feeling self-conscious about your smile because you have teeth that are chipped, cracked, worn, or misaligned, porcelain veneers offer an excellent way to cover those imperfections and give your teeth a pristine, yet natural look. We offer both traditional veneers as well as LUMINEERS®, a new, minimally invasive variation on the same treatment. To find out how porcelain veneers crafted by doctors Christian A. Brandyberry and Brian K. Cook can improve your smile, contact our Thomasville practice today.

Placing Porcelain Veneers

LUMINEERS® are an ultra-thin variation on traditional porcelain veneers, requiring no removal of enamel from the front surface of your teeth. Like traditional veneers, the placing of LUMINEERS® requires two visits. During the initial visit, the dentist will create a mold of your teeth, will be sent to the Cerinate Smile Design Studios, the exclusive manufacturer of LUMINEERS®.

During a second visit, the dentist will place your LUMINEERS® on top of your teeth without a bonding agent, to ensure they fit properly. The dentist will perform some moderate etching on the enamel, which will help the bonding agent bond to the tooth. Finally, the dentist will place the veneer and secure the bond with a special curing light.

Traditional veneers require the dentist to trim about 0.5 to 0.7 millimeters of enamel from the front surface of your tooth. In some cases, patients who choose the traditional method of placing veneers report experiencing heightened sensitivity to heat and cold. This sensitivity usually subsides, but your dentist will have suggestions on how to accelerate the recovery process if discomfort persists. Your dentist may schedule a follow-up appointment to ensure the veneer was placed absolutely correctly and is not causing your gums to become irritated.

Traditional Veneers versus LUMINEERS®

While the process of placing LUMINEERS® is much less invasive than placing traditional veneers, there are other differences. Many patients feel that because traditional veneers offer a thicker palette for the technician to work with, they often look more realistic than LUMINEERS®. Also, if a patient has severe discoloration they wish to conceal, the thin construct of the veneer may not accomplish this. Making an appointment with your dentist to discuss your hopes and goals is the best way to determine which treatment is best for you.

The Lifespan of Porcelain Veneers

It is important to understand that neither LUMINEERS® nor traditional porcelain veneers are removable. Once you have received traditional veneers, you will always need veneers or another form of cover for the front surfaces of the treated teeth. Though LUMINEERS® require significantly less alteration than traditional veneers, patients will probably also want to continue having some kind of fascade on their teeth. Veneers can become worn down over time, and are susceptible to breakage in the event of an accident. In either case, your veneers may need to be replaced eventually.
