Orange + Magnolia Dental Studio is led by a true, highly respected dental artist, Dr. Joyce Kahng. Dr. Kahng applies her considerable artistry and knowledge to transform discolored teeth and other cosmetic imperfections with versatile veneers. Our team in Costa Mesa, California, is excited to share some of the most attractive features of this popular cosmetic treatment.
Treated teeth should not stick out strangely from their neighbors. They should blend seamlessly with the rest of the tooth structure and neighboring teeth in your smile. Both porcelain and composite resin veneers support natural results. They are designed to look like healthy tooth enamel. Once applied and secured to the front surfaces of cosmetically imperfect teeth, veneers cover up stubborn stains and discoloration. They also disguise oddly shaped, chipped, and worn-down teeth, as well as gaps between teeth and other spacing issues.
You can significantly improve your smile in as little as two or three visits. During the first visit, Dr. Kahng thoroughly examines your mouth. You will also share what you would like to change about your smile. A prep visit follows if your mouth is healthy and you are otherwise a good candidate for veneers. The surfaces of the teeth that need to be treated are gently prepared during this second appointment. Scans of your teeth are taken, and temporary veneers may be applied as required. Once the permanent veneers are ready, the third appointment is all about delivering the goods! Before attaching the permanent veneers, we ensure your new tooth enamel looks and feels great.
Today’s veneers are very thin. Only about a half-millimeter of enamel is removed to make room for each veneer. Since so little tooth structure is removed, preparing and placing veneers is associated with little to no sensitivity. Provisional restorations help to protect the prepared teeth while your permanent veneers are being made.
When in Dr. Kahng’s highly capable hands, the results from treatment last. This makes them a great value. Porcelain, too, has the added benefit of resisting stains very well. That said, with good oral care, composite and porcelain veneers can hold up well for many years and continue to look as attractive as the day you received them.
