Benefits of Dental Veneers for Seniors

Veneers are thin, custom-made shells designed to cover the front surface of the teeth. They are particularly beneficial for seniors for several reasons:

• Improved Aesthetics: Veneers can address discoloration, chips and uneven teeth, restoring a natural and youthful appearance.
• Durability: Made from durable materials like porcelain, veneers can withstand daily wear and tear, making them a long-lasting solution.
• Minimally Invasive: The application process is less invasive compared to other cosmetic procedures, preserving the natural structure of the teeth.

 

The Veneer Application Process

Dr. Bryan Bumpas and our team help ensure a smooth and comfortable experience for our senior patients:

1. Consultation and Assessment: Discussing your cosmetic goals and evaluating your dental health.
2. Tooth Preparation: A minimal amount of enamel is removed from the tooth surface to accommodate the veneer.
3. Impressions and Fabrication: Taking impressions of your teeth to create custom veneers that fit perfectly.
4. Bonding: The veneers are carefully bonded to the teeth, and adjustments are made for a perfect fit.

 

Caring for Your Veneers

Proper care can extend the life of your veneers and maintain their appearance:

• Regular Dental Visits: Routine checkups with us to monitor the condition of your veneers.
• Good Oral Hygiene: Brushing and flossing daily to keep your teeth and gums healthy.
• Avoiding Hard Foods: Refrain from biting into hard objects to prevent damage to the veneers.
