Bonded Veneers in Madison

Our Cosmetic Dentists Apply Composite Veneers for Dane County Patients

Over time, your teeth endure a great deal of pressure. Even drinking coffee or clenching your teeth due to daily stressors can cause teeth to become discolored or chipped. Refresh your smile with bonded or composite veneers from Total Care Dental.

What are Bonded Veneers?

Bonded veneers are small pieces of resin secured over your natural teeth to correct inconsistencies in your smile. Bonded veneers closely resemble your natural teeth. Each set of bonded veneers is made to fit a specific set of teeth, so they are virtually unnoticeable. Bonded veneers are usually a “while you wait” process.

Bonding, also known as bonding restoration, is a painless way to make minor repairs to teeth. Composite resin is put on the teeth, then shaped and hardened with light. The composite resin can be matched to your teeth, shaped to look like the missing part of a chipped tooth, used to build up teeth and fill in gaps.

Resin can be used on a broken tooth to restore it to size, or painted over a stained tooth to match the color of your surrounding teeth.

What is the composite veneer procedure?

The dental veneer process is fairly simple, painless and can be done in one dental visit in under an hour. It’s perfect for patients who want an instantly better smile without invasive oral surgery. A dentist will: 

1.   Measure your teeth where the composite will be added.
2.   Make note of chips, gaps and other imperfections to determine the best way to correct them.
3.   Apply a bonding agent and composite resin (white filling) material over the area.
4.   Build up the area and fill in the affected space with multiple layers.
5.   Shape and sculpt the composite to match the surrounding teeth.
6.   Use a high-intensity light or laser to harden and reinforce the composite material to the tooth. 
7.   Polish the bonded veneers for a natural appearance.

Acid etching may be used to create a better bonding surface for your veneers. 

Bonded veneers are as easy to care for as natural teeth. They require brushing twice a day, daily flossing, routine dental examinations and cleanings twice a year.

Composite veneers may be the perfect solution for a brighter, whiter smile. Schedule a cosmetic dentistry consultation with Total Care Dental to learn more about the bonded veneer process.

Composite vs. Porcelain Veneers

Porcelain veneers last longer than bonded veneers. They are stain-resistant and chip-resistant, and porcelain veneers can provide a more natural look. However, bonded veneers offer several advantages over porcelain. Bonded veneers:

• Cost significantly less 
• Let you conserve tooth structure
• Can be completed in one visit
• Are easily removable, repairable and replaceable

Because porcelain veneers are created in a dental lab, there is a waiting period of a week or two before they can be applied. By opting for composite instead, you will have almost instant results.

Composite veneers require a different type of procedure, which can be accomplished in one session.
