Porcelain Veneers

Porcelain Veneers are a great way to reshape your mouth and create a whole new smile. Veneers are a thin durable shell that are placed over your natural teeth. They can fix problems such as staining, cracked teeth, spaces, misaligned teeth, and chipped teeth. At Elite Dental Arts, located in New York, NY., Dr. Nick M. Mobilia, D.D.S., offers veneers and other cosmetic services.


 


Veneers take 2-3 appointments to complete. At your first appointment with Dr. Moiblia, you will work together to decide on veneers that work best for you. There are many different options when it comes to the appearance of your veneers. It is recommended that you do independent research before your appointment. This allows you to have a better idea of what you want your veneers to look like. There are two major choices that need to be made when choosing your veneers: shape and color. Veneers are offered in both round and square shapes. It is a common misbelief that rounded teeth are more feminine, while square teeth are more masculine. This is not true and both shapes are available regardless of gender. For color, veneers come in shades of natural all the way to Hollywood levels of brightness. Once these decisions have been made, the next part of the process can begin.


 


Before veneers can be placed. Dr. Mobilia and our staff will clean your teeth. This allows for an easier bonding between the veneers and your natural teeth. Afterward, an impression of your teeth will be taken. This impression is sent to a dental laboratory to create your custom made and fit veneers. This takes about 10-14 days to complete. In the meantime, you will be given temporary veneers. At your final appointment, the permanent veneers will be bonded onto your teeth.

Benefits of Porcelain Veneers


If you’re considering a surface makeover of your smile, Elite Dental Arts is the place to do it.  At our comprehensive, restorative and cosmetic practice, we offer a number of services and technologies that can completely customize your smile, tooth by tooth. One method of accomplishing this is the use of porcelain veneers.

Porcelain veneers are cosmetic restoratives that make it possible to recreate the surface and outer structure of a tooth.  As a thin, semi-translucent porcelain shell is crafted for each individual tooth and securely bonded to its surface, discoloration, chips, fractures, gaps and minor bite issues are corrected. Porcelain veneers make it possible to totally recreate the most visible portions of your smile as you envision. They are a superior option in cosmetic dentistry, but there are a few factors to consider when choosing veneers:


  • Veneers often require slight modification to the outer structure of an existing tooth, but this amounts to less than one millimeter of enamel shaping.

  • Veneers do not stain and they do not require any dietary restrictions, however, excessive force and destructive habits can cause them to chip or become damaged.

  • Veneers do require some lab time for fabrication, typically several weeks. Once they are crafted, they can then be permanently bonded to the teeth.

  • The longevity of veneers varies from patient to patient. They may need to be re-bonded to the tooth after a few years or they can last for decades. 

To determine whether or not porcelain veneers are the right cosmetic dentistry solution for you, consider your smile care habits, desired results and arrange an appointment here with Dr. Nick Mobilia, DDS in our New York, NY dental practice, by calling our office at (212) 681-0939.
