Traditional Veneers vs. a No-Prep Technique

Veneers are thin porcelain shells that fit over the front surface of a tooth. This cosmetic dentistry procedure conceals aesthetic issues such as cracks, chips, stains, gaps, and misalignments. Traditionally, porcelain veneers require your dentist to remove a small amount of enamel from the tooth structure to allow the veneer to fit properly. 

No-prep veneers allow Dr. Myles to place your dental veneers with little to no alteration of the tooth. This is a great option for patients who do not want to commit to a permanent treatment.

Candidates for No-Prep Veneers

Candidacy for this type of veneer is similar to traditional porcelain veneers. You may be a good candidate if you:

Are in Good Oral Health

You must be in good oral health and free of dental issues such as tooth decay and gum disease. 

Are Ready to Invest in Your Smile

Because veneers are considered a cosmetic procedure, they are not covered by dental insurance. However, the benefits of veneers make them a great investment.

Have Sufficient Enamel

Even though no-prep placement requires little to no modification of the tooth, the tooth itself must be healthy enough with sufficient enamel to support the veneer.

Consultation

During your initial consultation at our dental office in Reston, VA, Dr. Myles will examine your mouth and discuss your goals to determine if no-prep veneers are the right treatment for you.

Impressions

Next, Dr. Myles will take impressions of your teeth in order to craft your porcelain veneers. 

Placement

Once your veneers are ready, your dentist will bond them to your teeth. In some cases, there may be a minimal amount of tooth prep required. In these cases, the surface of the tooth is lightly etched to allow the porcelain material to bond to the tooth properly.
