Why Choose Petty Dental for Composite Veneers

What Are Composite Veneers?

As the name suggests, composite veneers are thin, cosmetic shells made out of a composite resin material. While composite cosmetics aren’t quite as durable as porcelain cosmetics, they’re generally less costly and don’t have to be fabricated in an off-site dental lab. The material is also thinner, meaning Dr. Petty won’t have to remove very much dental enamel from your teeth in order for the veneers to look aesthetically pleasing.

The Process of Getting Composite Veneers

After meeting with your cosmetic dentist in Tullahoma for a consultation, the process of getting your composite veneers will involve four essential steps:

  1. Scanning Your Smile – We’ll use our intraoral and facial scanners to take measurements of your mouth.
  2. Creating a Personalized Mold – Using your oral measurements and the 3M Filtek Matrix, we’ll fabricate a model of your future veneers.
  3. Placing the Veneers – We’ll hold your personalized mold against your teeth and fill it with the composite.
  4. Curing the Material – After curing the material with a special light and making sure you’re satisfied with the results, you’re free to enjoy your new look!

The 3M Filtek Matrix was specifically created to take the guess-work out of the design process for dental veneers. It’s like if Dr. Petty were to draw with a stencil instead of trying to copy an image free-handed. Without the 3M Filtek Matrix, Dr. Petty would have to sculpt the composite material around your tooth in real-time. This technology allows Dr. Petty to craft more precise, better-fitting, and aesthetically gorgeous veneers – which in turn helps our patients feel more confident in their smiles!
