If so, you may be considering <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dizondental.com\/veneers.html\">veneers<\/a>, which is currently one of the most sought-after cosmetic dental treatments. Before you sign on the dotted line, however, it\u2019s important to dig a little deeper so you know what to expect at your consultation, how to maintain your results, and more. With this in mind, keep reading to learn five things you should know <em>before<\/em> getting veneers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Veneers Can Do More Than Just Whiten Your Teeth<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the many reasons veneers are so popular is because they can address dental discoloration. In fact, they can even conceal permanent stains, providing patients with the bright, beautiful smile they\u2019ve been missing. However, that\u2019s just one of the many imperfections veneers can correct. They can also fix noticeable gaps, considerable chips, small cracks, and misshapen teeth!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Usually, Only Two or Three Appointments Are Necessary<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Patients often assume that fixing the shape, shade, and size of their teeth will require years of back-to-back treatments. The reality is that veneers can transform your smile in just two or three visits! So, even though there will be a few weeks between each one, it won\u2019t be long before you have the gorgeous grin you\u2019ve always wanted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Your Results Can Last for 10+ Years<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Although veneers require a higher upfront investment, they also last longer. In fact, they can last for well over a decade with proper care! The best place to start is by committing to a solid oral hygiene regimen at home. Then, commit to other best practices, like scheduling a dental checkup twice a year, not using tobacco products, and avoiding extremely crunchy foods, like hard pretzels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. Veneers Are Crafted From Stain-Resistant Materials<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>After whitening your teeth, you need to avoid all dark-colored foods and beverages. Since veneers are crafted from stain-resistant materials, like dental porcelain, you don\u2019t have to take the same precautions! Just do your best to protect any of your teeth that aren\u2019t covered by using a straw when drinking coffee and eating lots of light-colored foods, like plain yogurt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5. The Whitest Shade May Not Be the Best Shade<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>When patients see the shade scale, they often are drawn to the whitest shade. However, selecting a few shades below the brightest one often leads to a much more natural, but equally as beautiful, result. That\u2019s why it\u2019s so important to share your smile goals and aesthetic preferences with your cosmetic dentist; they can help you decide!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Practice<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Our team at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dizondental.com\/\">Dizon Dental Aesthetics<\/a> shares a simple, but important, goal: to help each of our patients achieve a smile that\u2019s as healthy as it is beautiful.
