Porcelain Veneers in Del Mar, CA

One fast method to enhance your smile and conceal crooked, chipped, stained, or decayed teeth is using porcelain veneers at Ron Barry, D.M.D. in Del Mar, CA. Cosmetic veneers are slim covers created with porcelain, which are secured to the front of the teeth to boost the look of your smile. Offering personalized veneers and minimal prep, cosmetic and family dentist Dr. Ron Barry will aid in improving the size, color, length, and/or shape of the teeth. Make a consultation in our Del Mar, CA office to find out more information about veneers and decide if they're appropriate for your goals.

Cosmetic veneers may be used to rapidly hide stains and chips in your teeth, improve worn down or misaligned teeth, and fix teeth that are unevenly spaced or shaped. At Ron Barry, D.M.D., your cosmetic veneers will be custom created to fit snugly over your teeth for an appealing and natural look. In your consultation, Dr. Barry will listen to your objectives and concerns so he can personalize your procedure. Dr. Barry may also determine whether you're a good candidate for cosmetic veneers by analyzing the total health of your mouth. You shouldn't have symptoms of gum problems, or routinely grind your teeth and clench your jaw.

When you've decided on your personalized treatment program with Dr. Barry, he will take impressions of your teeth. Your cosmetic veneers could be created in our office as you wait, or your impressions could be sent to a dental lab where your veneers will be made from high-quality porcelain. As soon as your custom veneers are prepared, Dr. Barry will take off a little bit of enamel from your teeth. This allows room for the porcelain veneers and enhances the bond for a more natural outcome that lasts longer. When your porcelain veneers are secured, Dr. Barry will make small adjustments so that your veneers fit well.

Since getting veneers usually doesn't require anesthesia, you should be able to get back to your daily tasks following your appointment. You might experience sensitivity to cold and hot meals for a couple of days, but that should fade away. Veneers should be cared for just like your own natural teeth with frequent flossing and brushing. While cosmetic veneers are stain resistant compared to the natural teeth, you still need to stay away from staining drinks and food to keep your veneers white. To prevent chipping your veneers, you shouldn't chew on hard objects, like your fingernails or ice. Continue to go to dental exams and cleanings at Ron Barry, D.M.D. so that we can track the condition of your cosmetic veneers, teeth, and general oral health. Dr. Barry will tell you if your porcelain veneers will need to be replaced or repaired.

Porcelain veneers are an elective treatment so they're generally not included in dental insurance. Ron Barry, D.M.D. does take many payment options, such as low-interest medical financing, to make your veneers more affordable. At the consult, Dr. Barry will personalize your plan to meet your needs and budget. He will discuss a quote for your veneers and explore your payment choices.
