Porcelain Veneers in Tuscaloosa, AL

Are you satisfied with the appearance of your smile? If you’re not, you may feel self-conscious about things like photos, Zoom meetings, or even meeting new people. It may be causing you to hide your smile, even subconsciously, which could mean you appear unhappy or unapproachable.

The good news is that dental veneers can repair various cosmetic smile flaws and even allow you to redesign your smile. Our dentists combine their skills with artistry to create amazing smiles and have already helped hundreds of patients revitalize their smiles with porcelain veneers in Tuscaloosa.

What Is a Porcelain Veneer?

Dental veneers are personalized just for you. They are thin layers of customized porcelain that bond directly to the surface of your tooth, covering these types of imperfections:

• Broken or chipped teeth
• Excessively worn teeth
• Gaps or spaces between teeth
• Tooth size or shape discrepancies
• Slight tooth misalignment
• Stained or discolored teeth

Porcelain veneers can completely redesign your smile by changing your teeth’s size, color, and shape. You’ll feel confident knowing your smile is always camera-ready!

If you choose dental veneers to enhance your smile, the process typically takes two appointments with your dentist and a few weeks to complete your beautiful new look.

At your first appointment, Dr. Will prepares you for veneers by taking impressions of your smile and creating temporary veneers you'll wear while your final veneers are handcrafted at a dental lab, which can take two to three weeks.

When your final veneers are ready, you’ll return to Vandervoort Family Dentistry to have them permanently placed and your bite adjusted to ensure optimal function. Once all the final adjustments are made, it’s time for you to share your new smile with the world!

You’ll be happy to know that dental veneers are easy to care for. You can brush and floss just like before. Avoid whitening toothpastes, as they can be abrasive and scratch the surface of your veneers.

As with natural teeth, it’s also best to avoid biting directly into hard foods like apples or crusty bread. Instead, cut hard food items into smaller, more manageable pieces that won’t crack or break your veneers. 

Are Dental Veneers in Tuscaloosa Right for Me?

The best way to determine how to achieve your dream smile is to book an evaluation with Dr. Will. He’ll use photos, x-rays, and a thorough exam to make treatment recommendations based on your lifestyle, needs, and smile goals. If veneers aren't the right treatment for you, he'll help you select an alternative option. 

You’ll always determine the treatment that’s best for your smile, and we’ll partner with you to make it a reality!
