Dental Veneers in Arlington, VA

Dental veneers are among the most versatile dental solutions for correcting a wide range of cosmetic issues with your smile. Veneers can be made of composite materials or porcelain and are thin shells that cover the front surface of the teeth being treated. These shells are permanently bonded to the teeth and can last for 10 to 15  years with proper care, camouflaging a wide range of cosmetic issues.

At Arlington Cosmetic & Family Dentistry, we prefer porcelain veneers due to their beauty, durability, and natural resemblance to dental enamel. They have a translucent quality unmatched by any other material and blend seamlessly with natural teeth.

Are Veneers Right for You?

Porcelain veneers are ideal for anyone looking to improve the appearance of their smile, particularly if they have multiple issues such as discoloration, uneven teeth, and chips or pitting. With dental veneers, you can correct several problems with one solution that lasts for years. Rather than undergo multiple treatments, you can get porcelain veneers and walk out of our office with a completely new and beautiful smile.

Why Choose Our Porcelain Veneers?

There are several reasons to choose our porcelain veneers to improve the look of your smile, including:

• Versatility: Not sure whether you want to whiten your teeth, fix that gap in the front, or get rid of a few chips? The good news is you can correct all of these at once because porcelain veneers are so versatile!
• Realistic Results: We can sculpt, color, and size each veneer for a precision fit that blends seamlessly with your natural teeth, enhancing their appearance.
• Stain Resistance: Porcelain veneers are highly stain-resistant, so you can enjoy wine, coffee, tea, and all your favorite foods (including Sunday gravy!) without worrying about dulling the brightness of your smile.
• Minimally Invasive: Because porcelain veneers require only the removal of a very thin layer of enamel to bond them in place, your teeth remain healthy.

What Issues Can Dental Veneers Correct?

• Gaps between the teeth
• Mild to moderate crowding
• Uneven teeth
• Oddly shaped teeth
• Oddly sized teeth
• Chipped or cracked teeth
• Discolored teeth
• Worn-down teeth

How Long Do Veneers Last?

With good oral hygiene and regular dental checkups, your custom veneers should last between 10 and 15 years. To preserve their longevity, do not bite your fingernails or chew on hard objects, such as ice or pens. Do not use your teeth as tools to open packages, and always wear a mouthguard when you are participating in sports.
