Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you should know

The procedure isn’t painful because only a minimal preparation is done on each tooth.

Yes, although ceramic veneers are highly resistant, they can fracture if excessive force is applied to the front teeth. This can happen, for example, when patients use their teeth to open bags, bite directly into apples or pears, or peel bananas with their front teeth. To avoid overloading the front teeth, it’s always ideal to use a knife and fork. Another common case of fracture is when the patient has bruxism and doesn’t use a night guard every night.

The time needed to complete the treatment depends on each patient’s specific characteristics and needs. In some cases, periodontal surgery may be necessary before placing the veneers, which would require additional healing time. If the treatment solely involves placing ceramic veneers, the estimated time is approximately 15 to 20 days.

No, the reduction is minimal and only performed on the superficial layer of the enamel, maintaining the tooth’s functionality.

Step by step procedure

Step 1

Assessment Appointment

Dr. Lina Marcela Osorio and her team conduct an assessment consultation where they analyze a panoramic X-ray, listen to the patient’s expectations, evaluate their specific needs, and take impressions of both upper and lower teeth. With this information, a comprehensive smile design plan is developed. Finally, both intraoral and extraoral photographic records of the case are taken.

Step 2

Veneer Placement Appointment

During this consultation, we present the patient with the planned design of their new smile, showing them what the final result will look like. Additionally, we begin the veneer placement process by performing the necessary dental preparations and taking impressions to send to the lab.

Step 3

Try-In and Possible Veneer Delivery Appointment

During this consultation, we verify the fit and color of the veneers. In some cases, the process can be completed in this appointment. However, in other instances, adjustments may be necessary, which could involve sending the veneers back to the lab.

Step 4

Final Veneer Appointment

During this appointment, the veneers are cemented, and a final photographic record is taken. Additionally, impressions of the upper teeth are taken for the fabrication of a protective night guard in the lab, which will be delivered at the subsequent appointment.

Step 5

Final Follow-Up Appointment

Delivery of the protective night guard for your smile design.
