Veneers – Commack, NY

Achieve a Flashier Smile

A naturally immaculate smile is a rare gift, but veneers have allowed millions of people to achieve prettier teeth. If you have chips, cracks, gaps, or stains due to an accident, poor oral hygiene, or genetic causes, veneers may be able to restore your smile and your confidence by covering up these flaws with beautiful and lifelike dental appliances. Here’s a brief overview of how veneers work, but please feel free to contact Dr. Silfa’s staff if you have any more questions about the procedure.

What Are Dental Veneers?

Dental veneers are thin shells designed to mimic the ideal appearance of natural teeth. Cosmetic dentists cement these appliances over teeth to conceal defects such as chips, cracks, gaps, and stains, and they can completely transform a smile in as few as two treatments. By covering troubled teeth, dental veneers can also protect them from further injury and decay while bolstering the patient’s self-confidence, and they are strong and durable enough to withstand the pressures of daily chewing and last up to fifteen years or more with excellent care.

The Process of Getting Veneers

Veneers aren’t for everyone, so the first step toward getting them is to have a consultation with Dr. Silfa. During this meeting, Dr. Silfa will examine your mouth and discuss your concerns and goals with you to determine if you are a good candidate for the treatment and develop an effective treatment plan that involves at least two appointments. After you are cleared for the treatment, you’ll come in for your first appointment, during which you’ll receive a local anesthetic before a small amount of enamel is removed from each tooth. Dr. Silfa will then take bite impressions, fix temporary veneers in place, and send you on your way.

After a skilled laboratory technician crafts your permanent veneers, you’ll come back to our office for your second appointment. Dr. Silfa will remove your temporary veneers, cement the permanent set in place, and make any final adjustments. You’ll then be ready to enjoy your new smile.

The Benefits of Veneers

Veneers offer a range of impressive benefits for a patient’s appearance and oral health. These include:

Being made from durable and stain-resistant porcelain
Lasting for more than fifteen years with excellent care
Treating many types of dental flaws at once
Customized to create a beautiful and natural appearance that fits seamlessly with your smile
Bolstering a patient’s confidence and willingness to smile

Understanding the Cost of Veneers

Since veneers are usually considered an elective cosmetic treatment, they are not typically covered by insurance plans. However, we offer options that can make paying for veneers easier such as:

In-house loyalty membership: By paying a flat annual fee, you can receive preventive services as well as discounts on other smile-enhancing treatments.
Financing options: We offer financing options through CareCredit, LendingPoint, and Proceed Finance, third-party financiers that offer plans designed to break your bill into monthly installments with little to no interest that can be easily managed.

Our staff will be more than happy to discuss your payment options with you during your consultation.
