Veneers

Are dental imperfections like cracks, chips, and discoloration keeping you from feeling confident when you smile? Lifelike porcelain veneers can conceal a wide range of cosmetic problems and can treat a single tooth or several teeth. Scottsdale, AZ, dentist Mark Davis can use veneers to help you reach your smile goals and feel more confident when smiling.

What Are Dental Veneers?

Our dental veneers are thin shells made from porcelain or IPS e.max® that are bonded to the front of your teeth. They can mask a variety of dental flaws such as gaps, intrinsic stains, and mild misalignment. Dr. Davis custom-designs veneers to make them appear indistinguishable from your natural teeth while enhancing the aesthetics of your smile, sometimes in a single visit to our office.
After a small amount of enamel is removed from the tooth, a veneer is placed to mask dental flaws.

Am I a Good Candidate for Dental Veneers?

While many patients in the greater Phoenix, AZ, area qualify for dental veneers, Dr. Davis will need to examine your smile before you can proceed with treatment. Some factors that can affect your candidacy include:

Enamel Density

A small layer of tooth enamel is removed prior to placing dental veneers. If you have thin enamel, your teeth may not be strong enough to support veneers. In this case, we may recommend dental crowns or dental bonding to address cosmetic flaws. 

Oral Health

Strong teeth and healthy gums create a good foundation for any cosmetic treatment. If you currently have cavities, decay, or periodontal disease, we will first need to restore your oral health before we can proceed with your veneer treatment. 

Dental Concern

Porcelain veneers are best suited for minor cosmetic flaws. If you have more serious dental concerns like deep tooth fractures or extensive misalignment, you might be a better candidate for alternative treatments.

Customized Dental Enhancement

Combining Cosmetic Treatments for a Dazzling Smile

When it comes to cosmetic dentistry, there is no such thing as a one-size-fits-all treatment. We have found that many of our patients see the best results when we create a treatment plan that combines multiple techniques to address several dental flaws. Some of the most common techniques we use in combination with porcelain veneers are gum contouring and teeth whitening.

Gum contouring provides patients with a more symmetrical gumline. Teeth whitening, performed prior to receiving veneers, can enhance the final results by whitening teeth up to eight shades. During your consultation at our Scottsdale office, you can talk to Dr. Davis about your additional cosmetic options.

What to Expect During Treatment

Though some patients qualify for same-day veneers, treatment may take two appointments over the course of two to three weeks at our Scottsdale office. The process is relatively simple and involves several steps:

Tooth Preparation

Dr. Davis will prepare your teeth for the veneers by removing an ultra-thin layer of enamel. While this step isn't necessarily painful, we will administer a local anesthetic to ensure your total comfort. 

Digital Impressions

Once the surface of your tooth has been prepared, Dr. Davis will take digital impressions of your smile. We use the Sirona Primescan® intraoral scanner to instantly upload your impressions to our computers. Dr. Davis can then design your veneers.

Temporary Veneers

Dr. Davis will place temporary veneers to protect the modified tooth surfaces and prevent sensitivity while our dental lab crafts your permanent porcelain veneers. 

Permanent Veneers

When your custom porcelain veneers are ready, you will return to our Scottsdale office for your second and final appointment. Dr. Davis will assess the look and fit of the porcelain shells over each tooth and make any necessary adjustments. The veneers are then secured to the enamel with resin.

Same-Day Veneers

Depending on your circumstances and the dental problems you wish to conceal, you may be able to receive same-day veneers. Our CEREC® technology can create porcelain or IPS e.max veneers so you can complete treatment in a single appointment. Ask Dr. Davis if you qualify for same-day veneers during your consultation.
