Veneers are an excellent solution for enhancing the appearance of your smile, but like natural teeth, they can become chipped or damaged over a period of time. It is important to have options and solutions available in this situation, there are steps you can take to address the issue and restore your smile.
Schedule an Appointment
First and foremost, contact Pacific Dental Care as soon as possible to schedule an appointment. Our experienced dental professionals will assess the extent of the damage and recommend the appropriate course of action. In some cases, minor chips or cracks can be repaired with dental bonding, a quick and straightforward procedure that restores the appearance and function of the veneer.
Replacement Options
If the damage to your veneer is more serious, replacement can be an option. Fortunately, at Pacific Dental Care, we use advanced materials and techniques to create durable and lifelike veneers that seamlessly blend with your natural teeth. Our skilled dental team will work closely with you to design and fabricate a new veneer that matches the shape, size, and color of your existing teeth for a flawless smile.
Preventative Steps
In the meantime, there are steps you can take to protect your damaged veneer and prevent additional unnecessary damage. Avoid biting or chewing on hard objects, such as ice or pens, as this can exacerbate the damage. Stick to soft foods and be mindful of your oral hygiene routine, including brushing and flossing gently around the affected area.
If you experience any discomfort or sensitivity due to a chipped veneer, over-the-counter pain relievers can help alleviate symptoms until you can visit Pacific Dental Care for treatment.
Remember, addressing a chipped veneer promptly is essential for maintaining the health and appearance of your smile. Contact the team at Pacific Dental Care today for expert care and personalized treatment options centered on your needs.
