If you have a broken or chipped tooth, you are probably in the phase of researching which dental services can fix your problem. If so, you will be happy to know that our top Houston dentist, Dr. Frazar, offers thin, durable veneers (also known as porcelain veneers)!

Don’t choose an inexperienced cosmetic dentist

Have you heard about veneers or have seen someone else with them? You probably have, and just thought that they were his or her natural teeth—and those are the results you get when the cosmetic dentist knows how to create natural-looking porcelain veneers, just as Dr. Frazar does. To the other extreme, if you’ve seen someone with veneers and their smile looks fake, then there is a good possibility that he or she chose a cosmetic dentist without much experience.

Fake versus natural-looking porcelain veneers

However, when you choose Dr. Kathy Frazar as your cosmetic dentist for porcelain veneers, you can look forward to a natural-looking, gorgeous smile that you’ll enjoy for many years to come. She excels at creating beautiful veneers, and she has ample experience with artistically crafting veneers.

Throughout her cosmetic dentistry experience, she learned about the ins and outs of how to create natural veneers. In fact, she knows all about the mistakes that other cosmetic dentists make when they create unnatural, fake-looking veneers, such as:

• Unattractive, poorly-shaped veneers: When creating veneers, some cosmetic dentists do not properly take into account the shape and size of your surrounding teeth. If this happens, the shape of your veneers will not complement the rest of your teeth, resulting in veneers that may appear too long or too short. However, Dr. Frazar knows how to artistically craft beautifully shaped veneers for her patients.
• Poorly-chosen shade for your veneers: During the veneers treatment planning phase, your cosmetic dentist should discuss with you the shade of white that you desire. Sometimes the dentist chooses a shade that is way too white, especially in relation to your surrounding teeth. When you choose Dr. Frazar, she may or may not recommend teeth whitening for your surrounding teeth before the veneers procedure begins.
• Wrong, unsightly thickness of your veneers: Some cosmetic dentists tend to make veneers that appear too bulky or too thick, which definitely creates an unnatural appearance. However, Dr. Frazar uses her expertise during the planning phase in order to choose the appropriate, most aesthetically-pleasing thickness.
• Abnormal translucency or opaqueness: Inexperienced cosmetic dentists create veneers that are too white and opaque, which doesn’t allow light to penetrate. When this happens, your veneers will appear fake-looking. On the other hand, there must be a balance between the best amount of translucency and opaqueness so that you will have natural, gorgeous veneers, and Dr. Frazar is experienced to do so.

Many patients come to our office, and during their consultation, we discuss many facets and information about dental veneers. Commonly, they wonder how many veneers they should get in order to still have a natural looking smile, but yet fix all of the flaws that are noticeable when they smile. Rightly so, this should be a topic of conversation when it comes to designing your dream smile.

How many porcelain veneers will create a flawless smile?

Well, did you know that veneers could be placed on either one tooth or on several teeth? If you are a good candidate for veneers, and if we recommend veneers for a few teeth, we can typically place your veneers all in one office appointment—so that means you don’t have to return for multiple office visits for each veneer!

To answer that question, we usually recommend that our patients get veneers on all of their teeth that show when they smile.

More specifically, the amount of veneers we recommend will be partly based on how wide your natural smile is—meaning that if you have a wider smile, you will have more teeth that show versus someone with a more narrow smile. Sometimes we recommend anywhere between 6-10 veneers for our patients with a wider smile. On the other hand, for those with smaller mouths and narrow smiles, maybe 4-6 teeth will need veneers. It all depends on the uniqueness of your smile!

Signs of veneers wear and tear

When veneers undergo wear and tear, this means that they become dull in color, or that your underlying tooth (your natural tooth that your veneer is placed on) can become darkened or discolored over time (meaning that your veneers might turn yellow or brown).

Furthermore, wear and tear can also mean that the tooth, and/or the bonding cement around the edges of your veneer, can become darkened. This discoloration, in turn, detracts from the natural beauty of your veneers. This can happen for several reasons, including:

• Tobacco use
• Consuming dark-colored beverages (red wine, colas, etc)

Can I whiten my veneers?

If you experience any of these signs, you could become quite bothered by it. The discoloration might lead you to wonder if you can whiten you veneers so that you no longer have to look at your yellow-stained veneers. Dr. Frazar and Dr. Hedge don’t recommend whitening your veneers, but, instead, they recommend redoing or replacing your veneers.

There are actually a couple of reasons why you should not whiten your veneers, such as:

• It is important to know that using whitening products on your veneers can actually damage your veneers. This can actually produce more unattractive veneers than before whitening! Furthermore, whitening your porcelain veneers might have adverse effects, and cause the opposite result, such as a more dull appearance compared to how your veneers looked before whitening.
• We know that using at-home teeth whitening products for your veneers is simply not effective. Since your porcelain veneers are stain-resistant, when you try to whiten them using a whitening gel or similar product, your veneers won’t show much positive aesthetic change (that is, if any positive change is noticed at all). Simply put, whitening an already stain-resistant item won’t produce positive results.

Our Houston dentists can help!

Tips to choose a top dentist!

To help you in the decision-making process, here are some tips you can use in order to choose which one is best for you among the top veneers dentists in Houston:

• During your research, it is wise to get as much information as possible about the dentist and his/her dental office. Such information includes: types of services offered, years of experience, company history, office hours, costs, dental expertise, emergency services, location, training and education of the dentist, and the like.
• If you know that you are interested in a specific dental service, try to choose one that specializes in it. For instance, if you know that you want veneers, try your best to choose an experienced, top veneers dentist to ensure that he or she is specialized to provide exceptional results.
• You can get a referral from your friends, family, or coworkers regarding which cosmetic dentist they recommend.
• You can schedule consultation appointments. This will give you the opportunity to meet the dentist and office staff, and extract additional information needed to make your decision.
• If you’re concerned about your budget, as most people are nowadays, consider which insurance companies they accept. You might be able to call the office to find out which types of services are typically covered under most dental insurance coverage plans.
• Consider the type of reputation that the dentist has within the dental community, and within your city community, as well.
