Veneers explained
Dr. Harpreet Aulakh is a Doctor of Dental Surgery (DDS) and a functional artist. This distinction is important when exploring veneer treatment; Dr. Aulakh combines her technical aptitude and knowledge as a dentist with her keen eye and artistry. The veneer is a stand-in or replacement for your natural tooth enamel. So, you need a dentist skilled in precision planning and techniques to ensure that the veneer is perfectly colour matched and otherwise replicates the tooth’s natural appearance and feel. Each veneer is made from thin layers of quality dental porcelain. A small amount of enamel must be removed from each tooth that is to be veneered. This step is necessary to ensure there is room for the veneer. Since modern veneers are ultra-thin, minimal enamel is removed. This characteristic also helps to keep tooth sensitivity to a minimum, and treatment is well-tolerated.
Once Dr. Aulakh has prepared the tooth, impressions are taken to create a model of your mouth, which ceramicists use in a dental lab to make the veneer. As the permanent veneer is being made, your prepared tooth will be protected with a temporary veneer. Ultimately, the permanent veneer is cemented securely to the front surface of the treated tooth after Dr. Aulakh confirms it fits well and looks and feels exceptional.
Sink into the benefits
Dental porcelain offers many outstanding features when planned, prepared, shaped, and bonded by skilled functional artists such as Dr. Aulakh. It is widely considered as the dental material that most closely replicates the appearance of natural tooth structure. It can be designed to cover many cosmetic flaws, from chipped to gapped teeth. Porcelain is as strong as it is stunning; with good oral care and habits supporting dental health, you can enjoy your veneered teeth for many years. Veneers are also a great stain-resistant option for patients with stubborn tooth discoloration and worn or short teeth that could be reshaped or resized. Some of these cosmetic flaws can also affect the health of your teeth and gums; for instance, gaps and other spacing issues tend to attract food and other debris, and harbour harmful bacteria, which promote tooth decay and gum disease.
