The Advantage of Veneers and Bonding
Dental Veneers
Teeth that are stained or misshaped may benefit from porcelain dental veneers. Tooth veneers areultra-thin layers that are artistically fashioned in a professional lab, and then applied to the surface of your teeth in our Apple Valley Dental Clinic. Most people cannot see tooth veneers with the naked eye, and they feel natural to the wearer.
The cosmetic dental veneer process typically takes three visits:
- The first appointment will consist of a consultation where we will diagnose the problem and plan for treatment.
- The second appointment is preparation for the dental veneers. A mold will be taken of your mouth at this time.
- The final visit is when the tooth veneers will be placed and you will experience a whole new smile.
Dental veneers can correct these cosmetic dental problems:
- Staining
- Misshaped teeth
- Chipped tooth
- Discolorations
- Spacing and crowding

Bonding
Tooth bonding is the process of changing the shape and color of a tooth using a plastic coating that is directly applied to the misshaped or chipped tooth. Dental bonding can be completed in one visit to your Apple Valley Dental Clinic and most often does not require the use of anesthetic.
The dental bonding cost is less than its counterpart, dental veneers, but the ceramic typically only lasts several years before possible chipping or staining may occur.
Call your Dakota Dental Clinic to schedule a consultation with a cosmetic dentist to thoroughly explore these options.
