PREPARING FOR PERFECTION: A GUIDE TO YOUR NEW AND IMPROVED SMILE

Prep day stands as a pivotal milestone in the process of achieving the smile you desire. This appointment is dedicated to meticulously preparing your teeth for the veneers, ensuring optimal fit and long-lasting results. If you have any questions about the prep day for porcelain dental veneers in Austin, Texas, please give us a call at 214-851-7334.

During your prep day here at
Veneer Lounge, you may expect:

1. Detailed assessment

On your prep day, you doctor will conduct a comprehensive examination of your teeth and review your treatment plan. We will also discuss the final desired outcome and address any concerns or questions you may have, ensuring we are aligned on the expected results.

2. Customized tooth preparation

To make room for the veneers, a thin layer of enamel will be carefully removed from the front surface of your teeth. This step is minimally invasive and allows for a seamless fit to ensure the veneers enhance your smile naturally. Our dentist may also administer nitrous oxide to help minimize discomfort during this process.

3. Digital impressions

Using an iTero® digital scanner, we will take precise digital impressions of your prepared teeth. This highly accurate method replaces traditional impressions, ensuring a comfortable experience while capturing the exact specifications required for crafting your custom veneers.

4. Temporary veneers

Temporary veneers will be placed on your prepared teeth, protecting them and giving you an idea of the anticipated final results. These temporaries are designed to resemble your future porcelain veneers, allowing you to visualize the transformation and provide feedback if needed.

5. Oral care instructions

Our dentist will provide detailed oral care instructions to maintain your temporary veneers until the permanent ones are ready. This includes proper brushing and flossing, as well as avoiding certain foods or habits that may impact the temporaries.

6. Finalizing your veneers

Impressions and other necessary information gathered during the prep day will be sent to our trusted dental laboratory. From there, a team of skilled technicians will meticulously craft your custom porcelain veneers, ensuring precise color matching and an impeccable fit.

7. Follow-up appointment

Before you leave, we will schedule a follow-up appointment to remove the temporary veneers and replace them with the finalized, custom-made porcelain veneers. During this appointment, we will ensure the perfect fit, make any necessary adjustments and cement the veneers securely in place.
