\"Temporary<\/a>If you\u2019re ready to turn the smile of your dreams into reality, porcelain veneers<\/a> may be the solution for you. You can address several imperfections using one procedure. You don\u2019t have to worry about an invasive or painful treatment plan. You can walk out of your dental office with a picture-perfect smile after just 2 appointments. However, you\u2019re going to need temporary veneers for a couple of weeks. Although you\u2019ll only need them for a short time, they are essential for your treatment plan, and here\u2019s why.\u00a0<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n\n\n

Process of Getting Veneers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

After any preparatory procedures, you\u2019ll be scheduled for the first phase of your treatment, which involves cleaning and preparing your teeth. A small amount of enamel is removed to allow your veneers to fit your teeth like a glove. While this doesn\u2019t harm the health of your teeth, they can be vulnerable to sensitivity, decay, and other issues if they aren\u2019t covered by restorations, whether crowns or veneers. Not to mention, your teeth won\u2019t be very attractive. Temporary veneers protect your teeth and allow you to \u201ctry on\u201d your new smile while waiting for your permanent restorations. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once your teeth have been prepped, your dentist will take a digital impression of your mouth to get the information necessary to create your veneers. They\u2019ll be crafted in a dental lab to meet your exact specifications. It can take the lab about 2 weeks, so your dentist will apply temporary restorations. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What to Expect with Temporary Veneers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Don\u2019t panic if your trial veneers aren\u2019t what you expected, because they aren\u2019t customized to fit your smile. They may be a little thicker than your final restorations. In addition, they don\u2019t leave gaps between your teeth, so your dentist will recommend you don\u2019t floss to prevent them from popping off.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You may experience sensitivity to hot, cold, or sweet foods and drinks, so you may want to avoid them until your new smile is complete. Your dentist will recommend staying away from hard, sticky, chewy, or crunchy foods, which can damage the veneers. Limit how often you have dark-colored foods and drinks because they can stain your short-term restorations and natural teeth. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Enjoy a Stunning Smile that Lasts<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In no time at all, you\u2019ll return to your dental office to have the temporary veneers removed and your permanent ones cemented to your teeth. You\u2019ll walk out of your appointment with a flawless smile that looks natural. Although it may take a few days to adjust to your veneers, you\u2019ll soon forget they aren\u2019t part of your real teeth. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Veneers are a big commitment. Trial veneers protect your investment to achieve the confident, stunning smile you desire. It\u2019s a small price to pay for a dazzling smile that can last for a decade or more. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
