Beaufort, Bluffton, and Hilton Head SC
If you are considering cosmetic dentistry to enhance your smile, veneers may be an excellent choice for you. Veneers can look incredibly natural if you choose the right dentist. To help you decide if veneers are right for you, and ensure you select the best dentist in Beaufort, ask these questions during your consultation.
How many veneers do I need?
Veneers are a great way to improve the aesthetics of a single tooth or your entire smile line. While some patients may only want to enhance one or two teeth, others may prefer veneers to cover all of their teeth that are visible when they smile, which could be 8-10 veneers per dental arch. Therefore, be sure to pinpoint your specific smile concerns so that Dr. Mohler can recommend the appropriate amount of veneers for you.
What will my veneers look like?
Veneers are crafted from high-quality dental porcelain that looks incredibly natural. The finish mimics the same light-reflecting quality of real dental enamel. Your veneers should have adequate shape and width but not look bulky and thick. Dental porcelain can be chosen in a variety of shades. We can select a shade that blends with your existing teeth if you only have one or two teeth treated or chose a color that is several shades brighter if the purpose is to enhance your entire smile.
How much will my veneers cost?
The cost of veneers in Beaufort depends on how many you need. Usually, veneers are priced per unit, meaning each one is a set cost. However, you should prepare to factor in any other necessary treatments that you may need beforehand, like a dental cleaning or other restorative dental treatments. We will provide a treatment plan and cost estimate during your consultation so that you are fully aware of your out-of-pocket expense before any work begins. We are also happy to discuss with you our available payment options.
How long will it take to get my veneers?
At Chris Mohler, DDS, we use CEREC technology that allows us to take digital impressions with a simple scan of your teeth and bite and then send that information to our in-office milling unit that makes your veneers onsite while you wait. This means that you could get a new smile in one visit!
How should I care for my veneers?
Caring for your veneers is essential but something that you probably already know how to do. Brush your teeth twice a day and floss daily to maintain good oral health and protect your veneers. We recommend that you avoid biting into hard candies or objects like pens or pencils and fingernails and use scissors (instead of your teeth) to open packages to prevent chipping or breaking your veneers.
How long should my veneers last?
With diligent oral hygiene and routine dental cleanings, your veneers should last a decade or longer before needing replacement.
