the two options

PREPLESS OR TRADITIONAL

Traditional veneers are able to elevate your smile but come at the cost of removing a small portion of your enamel. This irreversible step can make patients think twice about undergoing a cosmetic dental procedure. Luckily, Dr. Mary Sue Stonisch understands your apprehension and offers a  non-invasive alternative with no drilling.

Instead of removing your enamel, your teeth are just lightly sanded to clear the surface and remove any stains for your restorations.

With the latest technology, your treatment can be simple and drill-less. This technique is called “prepless veneers” which means no drilling and no grinding down. A common term to describe this type of procedure is “minimally invasive dentistry”.

In addition to the durability of these drill-less veneers, other benefits include:

  • Stronger than traditional veneers due to their bond to enamel
  • Ideal for correcting gaps, fractured teeth, and stained teeth that do not respond to whitening
  • Low-maintenance
  • Reduced downtime as temporization while waiting for your final veneers is typically not needed
  • Longer-lasting due to the strength of the bond to the natural enamel

Enhance your smile and your confidence at Faircourt Dental Smile Studio with prepless porcelain veneers. You can contact our Grosse Pointe, Michigan office by either calling our team at (313) 882-2000.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

ABOUT DENTAL VENEERS

What are dental veneers?

Dental veneers are thin, tooth-shaped shells made of porcelain or resin composite materials that fit over your natural teeth to hide flaws such as discoloration, chips, and cracks. Veneers dramatically improve the look of your smile without orthodontics or invasive procedures.

How do dental veneers improve my smile?

In addition to covering stains, cracks, and chips, dental veneers can be used to:

  • Lengthen or widen teeth
  • Reshape teeth
  • Cover gaps
  • Cover crooked or twisted teeth
  • Hide uneven or worn-down teeth
How are dental veneers placed?

Dental veneers last up to 15 years or more with proper care. Because your surface enamel was removed in preparation for the veneers, if your current set becomes damaged or wears out, you will need to replace them.

You should avoid biting hard foods with your veneers. If you grind your teeth at night, your dentist can fit you for a custom-made mouth guard to protect your dental veneers.
