Veneers

A smile lifts your spirits and the moods of those around you, making it a gift you share with others. If you hold back a sincere grin because you feel self-conscious about the appearance of your teeth, dental veneers could be the key to unlocking your smile’s full potential. 

Veneers can transform your look by concealing imperfections and giving you a smile you can't wait to share. At Dr. Tim Molloy's dental office in Friendswood, TX, we custom craft these tooth coverings for a seamless appearance and brilliant smile. 

The Power of Dental Veneers

A veneer is a wafer-thin shell crafted from tooth-colored materials such as porcelain or composite resin. Because it covers the front of the tooth, it conceals imperfections, creating a natural-looking, long-lasting improvement. 

Veneers are versatile and can correct a variety of cosmetic smile concerns, including:

• Stains and discolorations teeth whitening can’t resolve
• Broken teeth that affect your smile’s symmetry
• Cracked teeth that can lead to future dental issues
• Uneven tooth shapes or sizes
• Minor misalignments like unevenly spaced teeth 

Before veneers become an option, Dr. Molloy performs a comprehensive examination to ensure your oral health is in good condition. Your teeth and gums must be healthy and disease-free before we begin. You wouldn’t build your dream home on a shaky foundation, and we wouldn’t place veneers on weak or compromised teeth. 

We understand that committing to this treatment is a big step, so Dr. Molloy takes plenty of time to understand your smile vision and confirm it is the ideal choice for your needs. Alternatives like dental bonding or crowns may be more suitable for some situations.

The Process for Getting Veneers in Friendswood, TX

Getting veneers typically requires two appointments. We start by slightly reshaping the teeth to accommodate the veneer’s thickness, then take impressions. You and Dr. Molloy will select the perfect shade to match your smile and temporarily protect the teeth while the custom lab crafts your final restorations.

You will return to our dental office in about two weeks so we can check the final veneers for fit and bond them securely to your teeth. 

Maintaining your veneers is straightforward—good oral hygiene, regular checkups, and avoiding habits like biting into hard objects will keep your veneers looking great for years to come.
