How Dental Veneers Can Boost Your Confidence

How Dental Veneers Can Boost Your Confidence from R. David Brumbaugh, DDS in Dallas, TXA great smile can improve your confidence, but a poor one can have the opposite effect. Dental veneers may be the answer if you are struggling with the quality of your smile. Read on to learn how they can transform not only your smile but your confidence as well.

How a Flawed Smile Negatively Affects Self-esteem

People avoid smiling altogether when they do not like their smile. Someone with a poor smile may also be insecure about laughing or speaking too much because they fear being judged by their peers. As a result, people with self-esteem issues can find it difficult to curate meaningful relationships with others and create lasting memories within their own lives.

A few dental conditions can result in a flawed smile, including:

  • Chips
  • Cracks
  • Gaps
  • Stains or discoloration
  • Different sized teeth
  • Misshapen teeth

Having any of the above conditions can negatively impact how a smile appears. Unfortunately, people often accept this because they believe they must undergo extensive procedures or treatment plans to fix them. However, with dental veneers, patients can receive the smile of their dreams within two appointments.

Dental Veneers Explained

Dental veneers are thin, custom-made shells that a dentist will bond to the front of the natural teeth. They can consist of porcelain or composite resin materials (tooth-colored), usually around two millimeters thick.

The veneers are strong enough to withstand biting forces and different chewing styles (using front or back teeth to chew) but also thin enough to not interfere with dental restoration the patient may already have, such as dental fillings or crowns. In addition, it is good to note that dental veneers are a cosmetic service; therefore, any underlying condition that a patient has, such as decay, must be treated before their first veneer appointment. We can help craft a treatment plan to address these issues to make the process more smooth for the patient.

Benefits of Dental Veneers

Dental veneers offer many benefits. Many patients are surprised to learn that veneers can last up to 20 years if properly cared for. Because they are considered cosmetic procedures, patients do not have to wait months or even years to see results; they will see the results when the veneers are installed.

Unlike other dental procedures, such as dental crowns, patients will not need additional procedures to brighten their teeth or remove stains or discoloration. Instead, the dentist will allow the patient to choose the brightness level of their veneers before they are crafted. In addition, patients who would like larger teeth to have the appearance of a full smile can receive them in two weeks or less.
