Discover Instant Orthodontics

in Orange County & Los Angeles, CA

Do you have a crooked, uneven smile? Do you have gaps or cracks in your teeth? Would you like to fix these problems, but you don't want to deal with braces or you don't like the way you would look with braces? Now you can fix your teeth, and your smile, in just three office visits. How? Instant orthodontics.

Instant orthodontics involves the artistic application of porcelain veneers. Porcelain veneers, also known as dental veneers, are thin strips of porcelain that are bonded to the front surfaces of your teeth. Porcelain veneers look, feel, and function the same as your natural teeth.

Porcelain veneers can give you the beautiful smile you have always wanted in just three office visits. During your first visit, Dr. Henry will discuss your desired look and determine which teeth need veneers. Porcelain veneers can help shape your smile by adding length, width, or balance to any or all of your teeth. Next, Dr. Henry will make an impression of your teeth. This impression is used to construct your veneers and make a model for you.

During your second visit, this model is applied to your teeth. If any changes are needed, Dr. Henry can make these adjustments for you. Your permanent veneers will then be created and you will return one last time to have your veneers bonded to your teeth.

Some patients choose to have their teeth whitened when they have veneers applied.

Tooth Whitening is a simple procedure and this allows for a more consistent color throughout your smile. Following the application of porcelain veneers, discomfort is limited to tender or swollen gums for a few days. You may also need to have your veneers adjusted to a more comfortable position.
