There are many people that wish they could have the perfect smiles they see in the magazines and on television. A beautiful, flawless row of teeth is a sign of vitality, and having such a smile can be positive in the way you view yourself as well as the way you interact with others. Our smiles are used to show friendliness and communicate, and if that is compromised in any way, the effects can be damaging. If your smile is less than perfect, you may not know how you can achieve the smile of your dreams. Thankfully, Dr. Bobby J. Carmen is able to give you the smile you have always wanted by offering porcelain veneers at his Norman, OK dental office.
One of the main reasons why porcelain veneers are so popular is because they are able to completely revolutionize your smile is a short amount of time. If your smile is chipped, stained, misaligned, oddly spaced, or cracked, porcelain veneers are able to rectify the situation instantly, only revealing an impeccable smile! The first step is a consultation with Dr. Carmen, where he will be able to assess your smile in its current condition, as well as discuss your future smile goals with you. If you are a candidate for porcelain veneers, Dr. Carmen will then take impressions of your smile, and send them to a dental lab to have your custom veneers made.
When your veneers are being made, we will keep many things in mind, such as your smile wants as well as your facial features. We want your new smile to appear as natural as possible, making sure everything blends in seamlessly. Dr. Carmen will prepare your natural tooth by removing a small bit of enamel, ensuring there is space for your new smile. When your veneers are ready, Dr. Carmen will place them onto your prepared teeth, and make them permanent with dental resin cement. At the end of the procedure, you are left with a smile everyone will be envious of! If you would like Dr. Carmen’s help rejuvenating your smile using porcelain veneers, contact our office today, and we would love to help!
Contact our Norman office today to schedule a consultation with Dr. Carmen. Our team can’t wait to leave you with a happier and healthier smile. We also serve the areas of Moore, the University of Oklahoma, and beyond.
