How a Veneers Dentist Can Transform Your Teeth
Some dental procedures can seem quite radical, even if they are for practical as well as cosmetic reasons. In the early days of dentistry, tooth extractions were pretty much the only service people could get, but as the industry became more sophisticated, the list of possibilities grew to include fillings, then dental crowns and bridges and eventually dental implants. All are useful and have their place, but for many people, they may sound rather dramatic. Cosmetic veneers are a walk in the park in comparison.
If you fancy getting dental veneers in Kalgoorlie, we at Goldfields Family Dental can get you fixed up and smiling in no time. Cosmetic veneers are very much part of the all-round offering we provide to the city and surrounding areas.
What is a Veneer for Teeth?
Before we go on, a little clarification is needed so that everyone can get a good idea of what we mean by cosmetic veneers, and to do this let’s take a little detour. The veneer is well known in the furniture world, where a very thin sheet of an attractive wood can be applied to the surface of a cheaper, less sought-after variety, producing a good-looking item that would have been prohibitively expensive if it was 100% what it appeared to be.

The idea is easily transferred to the world of dentistry, where unattractive shades and imperfections of shape and alignment require steps to be taken to rectify the situation. What a veneers dentist does is cover existing teeth with a highly realistic composite or porcelain sheath that masks a variety of imperfections. Gaps, crowding and irregularity can be disguised, avoiding the need for more intrusive methods. Veneers protect the teeth, too.
The Debt We Owe to Hollywood Dentists
The idea of using a veneer for teeth originated in California in the 1920s when a dentist with links to the movie industry developed it as a way of temporarily modifying the appearance of an actor’s teeth. Presumably, he was making them more attractive, although the same technology could be used to make a bad guy look even badder!
What was an innovation for Hollywood soon came to the attention of the wider public and over the years, progress was made in making veneers more durable, realistic and attractive, as well as improving adhesion so they would stay put longer than a single film shoot. The best modern teeth veneers can last decades.
