About Porcelain Veneers
One effective method to improve your smile and conceal crooked, chipped, stained, or decayed teeth is with porcelain veneers at White Lotus Dental. This cosmetic restoration can be life-changing for many men and women, especially those who have spent years feeling self-conscious about the appearance of their teeth. Porcelain veneers are light, thin covers created with porcelain, which are secured to the front of the teeth to enhance the overall look of your smile. They can last for many years and aid in improving the size, color, length, and shape of the teeth. If you are ready for a smile makeover and have been considering porcelain veneers, we invite you to call White Lotus Dental and the office of McKinney, TX dentist Dr. Karuna Peravali to schedule your appointment. Learn more about the amazing benefits they can offer you and decide if they're appropriate for your aesthetic and oral health goals.
Best Candidates
Porcelain veneers may be used to effectively mask stains and chips in your teeth, improve worn down or misaligned teeth, and fix teeth that are poorly spaced or shaped. At White Lotus Dental, your porcelain veneers will be custom created to fit securely over your teeth for an appealing and natural look. At your consultation, Dr. Peravali will listen to your objectives and concerns so she can personalize your procedure. She may also find out whether you're a good candidate by assessing the overall health of your mouth. You shouldn't have symptoms of periodontal disease, or routinely grind your teeth and clench your jaw if you are contemplating veneers. Before they can be recommended, patients should have good oral health, thus a dental exam and cleaning is the first step toward your new smile. If there are issues found during the exam, these can be addressed so that you can move forward with your treatment.

What to Expect
As soon as you've decided on your personalized treatment program with Dr. Peravali, she will take dental impressions. Your porcelain veneers might be produced in our office as you wait, or your impressions could be sent to a dental lab where your veneers will be made from high-quality porcelain. As soon as they are prepared, Dr. Peravali will prep your teeth by taking off a very small layer of enamel from the surface. This allows room for the veneers and enhances the bond for a more natural outcome that lasts longer. Once they are secured, our dental team can make small adjustments so that your veneers are comfortable and look and feel natural.
Treatment Aftercare
Since the treatment normally doesn't require anesthesia, you should be able to continue your daily tasks following your appointment. You might experience sensitivity to cold and hot meals for a couple of days, but that should fade away. Veneers should be cared for just like your own natural teeth with regular flossing and brushing. While cosmetic veneers are stain-resistant compared to natural teeth, you still need to be aware of drinks and foods that may stain them. To prevent harming your veneers, you shouldn't chew on hard objects, like ice, your fingernails, or hard candy. Continue to make dental examinations and cleanings at White Lotus Dental in McKinney, TX so that we can track the condition of your porcelain veneers, teeth, gums, and general oral health.
Insurance Coverage
Porcelain veneers are an elective treatment so they're usually not covered by dental insurance. Veneers are considered a huge cosmetic upgrade for so many of our patients, thus our McKinney, TX dental office works with patients on various payment options and low-interest financing to make them more affordable. At your first consultation, we will personalize your treatment to meet your needs and budget. We will take the necessary time to discuss a quote for your treatment and explore your payment choices.
