Dental veneers can improve the appearance of teeth affected by discoloration, chips, uneven shape, small gaps, or other cosmetic concerns. At Dental Art Clinic in Mount Prospect, IL, Dr. Joanna Tylman provides customized veneer treatment for patients from Mount Prospect, Arlington Heights, Wheeling, and surrounding communities.
Depending on your teeth, cosmetic goals, and treatment needs, options may include Bioclear composite restorations or porcelain veneers. During your consultation, we will evaluate your smile and discuss which approach may be appropriate for you.
Bioclear is a composite-based restorative technique that can be used to improve the shape, contours, and appearance of appropriate teeth. The technique uses specially designed forms and tooth-colored composite material to create a restoration directly around the tooth.
Bioclear may provide an alternative to traditional porcelain veneers for certain patients and treatment situations.
One potential advantage of the Bioclear technique is its ability to improve tooth shape and appearance while preserving natural tooth structure when clinically appropriate.
Bioclear may be considered for cosmetic concerns such as uneven tooth shape, small gaps, worn edges, or other situations that can be treated with composite material.
Because every patient’s teeth and treatment goals are different, Dr. Joanna Tylman will evaluate whether Bioclear or another cosmetic treatment is appropriate for your smile.
The longevity of a Bioclear restoration depends on several factors, including oral hygiene, bite forces, tooth condition, diet, habits such as grinding or clenching, and regular dental care.
Dr. Joanna Tylman will discuss proper care and maintenance based on your individual treatment.
Porcelain veneers are thin, custom-made ceramic restorations bonded to the front surfaces of teeth. They can be used to improve tooth color, shape, size, symmetry, and overall smile appearance when veneers are clinically appropriate.
At Dental Art Clinic, porcelain veneer treatment is individually planned to complement each patient’s teeth, facial features, bite, and cosmetic goals.
Porcelain veneers are designed to closely resemble natural tooth enamel. Their color, shape, size, and proportions can be customized to blend with surrounding teeth and create a natural-looking smile.
Porcelain is also resistant to many common sources of staining, although good oral hygiene and regular dental care remain important.
Porcelain veneers are designed to provide a durable cosmetic restoration, but their lifespan varies from patient to patient. Oral hygiene, bite forces, grinding or clenching, diet, and other factors can affect how long veneers remain in good condition.
To protect your veneers, avoid using your teeth to open packages or bite hard objects. Patients who grind or clench their teeth may also benefit from a custom night guard when recommended by their dentist.
