How much time do porcelain veneers cost in Mission Viejo, CA?

The appearance of your smile has a direct effect on your self-confidence, and relationship with others. If you envision your face, with a flawless smile, it is easy to understand why cosmetic dentistry is so popular. A smile makeover can literally transform your life, but you may think it won’t fit into your schedule. Drs. Alex and Nina Basti can correct a wide variety of cosmetic issues in a single visit, with porcelain veneers.

These thin shells, made of lustrous porcelain, completely cover the surface of treated teeth. Minimal tooth reduction is needed to accommodate veneers, yet they entirely change the appearance of your teeth. Veneers may be a good option for you if your teeth are:

• Discolored – Teeth whitening can eliminate most stains caused by food or beverages. However, some discoloration does not respond well to bleaching gels. This is often the case when teeth are darkened by medications, excess fluoridation, past root canal therapy, or genetics.
• Crowded or gapped – If several teeth in a row are treated, the veneers can be designed to correct spacing issues. They have often been called "instant orthodontics" because it would take several months of wearing braces to achieve the same results.
• Disproportionate – Veneers can be used to alter the size and shape of a tooth. This is a great solution for patients with uneven teeth. The most beautiful smiles are created when the dimensions of teeth are proportionate to other teeth, the lips, and the face.
• Chipped or fractured – If the structure or strength of the tooth is not significantly compromised, veneers can cover the signs of damage.

Traditionally, the process of getting porcelain veneers would take several weeks, and two or three appointments. We understand how valuable your time is, and our office is equipped with the latest technology to bring you the most comfortable, convenient experience possible.
