What are Dental Veneers? When Do I Need Them in St. Louis?

Are you embarrassed by your smile? Do you want whiter, straighter, more natural-looking teeth? Dental veneers are an excellent solution for fixing your smile's imperfections. Veneers are wafer-thin pieces of porcelain that are bonded over the front of your teeth. Porcelain veneers are routinely used by the Martin Dental & Associates team of dentists in the St. Louis area to fix:

  • Teeth that are discolored because of:
    • Stains from tetracycline or other drugs
    • Root canal treatment
    • Excessive fluoride
    • Large resin fillings
    • Other causes
  • Diastema (unwanted gaps in your smile)
  • Teeth that are worn down
  • Teeth that are chipped or broken
  • Teeth that are misaligned, uneven, or irregularly shaped
  • Teeth that are too small


What is the Dental Veneers Procedure in St. Louis?

Getting dental veneers usually requires two or three sessions with Dr. Martin or another of the skilled dentists on staff. Contact us now or call 314-739-1222 for our Maryland Heights office or 573-764-2425 for our Gerard location to learn more about our dental veneer services. If you are dealing with any of the following issues in St. Louis, you are likely not a good candidate for dental veneers:

During your first visit, one of the Martin Dental & Associates dentists will meet with you and discuss the benefits of applying dental veneers. Then we will scan, sculpt, shape, and customize your veneers, and make sure that you're going to be happy with the look and feel of them. Then, during your second appointment, the dentist will slightly etch the surface of the teeth the veneers will be attached to, and then use dental cement to attach the veneer to your teeth. Etching roughens the teeth to allow for a strong bonding process. Next, using an ultraviolet light, the veneer will be hardened to your tooth. Lastly, if you're happy with the look and feel of your porcelain dental veneers, you can leave our office and show off your seamless smile.

Frequently Asked Questions Regarding Dental Veneers in St. Louis

Can I preview my veneers before they go in?

Sure thing. We can get a digital smile preview by taking a picture of your face and digitally edited teeth. This gives you the perfect idea of the aesthetic outcome, and helps determine if dental veneers are the right fit for you.

How can I keep my veneers in good condition in St. Louis?

Here are some recommendations from the dentists at Martin Dental & Associates for keeping your veneers looking and feeling great:

  • Brush at least twice a day with a nonabrasive fluoride toothpaste on a soft-bristled toothbrush
  • Floss between your teeth once daily
  • Use an antibacterial mouthwash twice a day
  • Never use your teeth as tools – nail biting, opening packages, or tearing off tags
  • Visit your dentist at Martin Dental & Associates for routine exams and cleanings

What happens if one of my veneers falls off?

The porcelain veneer is extremely strong and should not break under normal circumstances. If one breaks or falls off, no worries, try not to panic. It happens occasionally, although rare. Try to save the veneer for the Martin Dental & Associates team, and contact us right away or call us at 314-739-1222 for our Maryland Heights office or 573-764-2425 for our Gerard location.

Does the dental veneers process in St. Louis hurt?

Typically, our Martin Dental & Associates patients are numb for the veneering procedure so there should be no pain. With smaller cases involving two or three veneers, there will be very little or no discomfort after the numbness subsides. You might expect some soreness of your gums and possibly your jaw if you are having eight or more veneers placed. The soreness will quickly subside and, if necessary, can be alleviated with over the counter medications.
