Porcelain Veneers in One Hour-New permanent Cerinate Veneers

You can now have permanent Porcelain Veneers made in one hour right in our office. At Pearl Dental Center, Newtown Family Dentistry, we now place the Denmat Cerinate One -Hour Porcelain Veneers in one visit.

Gone are the days when we would have to file down the teeth extensively, then take impressions to send to the laboratory to fabricate the permanent veneers, place temporaries on your teeth, then bring you back for a second visit for placement of the permanent veneers.
And since there are no laboratory fees involved and since there is no need for a second visit, the fees for the one-hour veneers are also considerably less than the lab-fabricated veneers.

On the other hand, if you needed instant cosmetic improvements or needed to cut down on the cost factor, you could get direct bonding done on your teeth: no laboratory procedures are needed in direct bonding but the material used in bonding is not porcelain but composite resin, which is not as durable or as stain-resistant as porcelain.

Now, with Cerinate one-hour permanent porcelain veneers, the advantageas are:
- very little drilling, if any
- no sensitivity
- considerably less expensive (in our office, actually less than the bonding)
- instant results, in about an hour

Interest-free financing for 18-24 months can be arranged through Care Credit or Chase to make the Cerinate one-hour permanent porcelain veneers more affordable so give you that winning smile you always wanted!

Cosmetic Dentistry- Teeth Bonding

In the previous blog I had discussed one of the reasons why a patient may prefer to get direct bonding done in the dentist's officwe instead of porcelain veneers (which involve laboratory fabrication) to achieve cosmetic improvements of teeth.

Another reason why a patient may prefer direct bonding is that there is often less tooth structure reduction for the dentist to bond resins on teeth compared to placing porcelain veneers. If a person has chips, cracks or discolorations on teeth, if there are spaces between the teeth, if they are irregularly placed, these can be corrected by bonding tooth colored material (that we call composite resins) on the teeth in thin layers. After the dentist and patient are satisfied with the improvements to the smile, the bonding is polished to a high gloss and finish and viola!  its all done.

Some more reasons, especially from the dentist's point of view, in another blog.
