Their unique ability to change the size, shape, and shade of your teeth all at once makes them a go-to solution for anyone looking to upgrade their grin\u2019s radiance. However, you may have heard that some tooth enamel must be removed to enjoy this treatment. Read on to learn just how much of your tooth must be taken off to give yourself peace of mind!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why Is It Necessary to Remove Enamel for Veneers?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Veneers offer the easiest way for you to completely transform your teeth. They cover the entire front surfaces, changing anywhere from one tooth to an entire smile. In order to look and feel as natural as possible, your dentist must alter your natural teeth to accommodate your veneers. By removing a slight portion of your enamel, your veneers will be able to fit comfortably on to each tooth, staying in place with durable bonding material.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Are Your Teeth Impacted by Veneers?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s a common misconception that a huge chunk of your tooth must be removed to allow for the placement of veneers. However, dentists are committed to the most conservative care \u2013 they want to keep as much of your healthy enamel intact as possible. No two cases are the same, which is why a consultation with your dentist is vital. They will examine your smile and determine how much enamel should be removed. Your dentist will find the sweet spot between shaving off enough tooth to help your cosmetic enhancements while keeping enough strong tooth structure to maintain your oral health. On average, dentists shave about 0.5mm off of a tooth for a veneer, but this will vary depending on your needs.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Smile with Veneers!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>When it comes down to it, you have to do what\u2019s right for you and your smile. Is the boosted confidence, beautiful appearance, and overall better quality of life worth the slightest portion of tooth enamel being removed? For most, the answer is yes! Veneers come with so many benefits that will keep you smiling, including stain-resistant material, complete customization, easy maintenance, and much more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now that you know exactly what to expect when getting veneers, what are you waiting for? Contact your dentist to get started on a life-changing cosmetic treatment!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Practice<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Dr. Jason Tubo is a skilled cosmetic dentist in Whitinsville who offers high quality porcelain veneers as well as various other cosmetic services.
