Veneers
With decades of experience in cosmetic dentistry and just five visits, Dr. Levingart delivers one-of-a-kind smile makeovers to compliment our patients’ natural beauty using minimally invasive techniques.
We partner with the world’s top ceramists to create custom-made porcelain veneers to correct the form, appearance and function of discolored or misshapen teeth.
Veneers are thin shells of porcelain designed to mask the appearance of chipped, discolored or misaligned teeth. They are placed over the front surfaces of teeth, giving them a clean, even, and natural appearance that compliments each individuals smile aesthetic.
Are you a Candidate for Veneers?
- Chipped, discolored, misaligned and severely stained teeth.
- Mildly crowded teeth or mildly spaced teeth
Your Veneers can be completed in four to five appointments
Appointment 1:
Photographs are taken of your face, smile and teeth. Together, we will establish smile goals and your preferred esthetic. We will establish a treatment plan with the use of interdisciplinary approaches to bring your the smile you desire.
Impressions will be taken at this visit to make molds of the teeth. These molds will be sent to our dental ceramist to design customized wax version of your smile goal.
Appointment 2:
Two weeks after our initial consultation, we minimally prepare the teeth if necessary, and transfer the wax up to the patient’s mouth. This is our test run to test out our mockup to see how they look and feel with your new smile.
Appointment 3:
Any necessary adjustments to your new smile are made at this time and a final impressions is taken for the fabrication of your customized veneers. You will be going home in temporary veneers that will mimic the final result.
Appointment 4:
Two weeks later, the final veneers have arrived at our office for a try-in. Your new smile is tried in and evaluated for fit, overall feel and aesthetics. Finally your veneers are cemented in!
Follow up appointment
One month later, we want to see how you’re healing! At this time, the tissue has healed and minimal re-contouring will be done if necessary. Final photos will be taken.
