Are Veneers Painful?


Posted on 8/21/2023 by Office - Boone DMD
Are Veneers Painful?Pain may come to your mind when you think of dental procedures. This is because of the delicate nature of the oral system. The fixing of any alien object in the mouth is a bit uncomfortable. This is still the case when it comes to fitting dental veneers on the teeth.

To get dental veneers, the teeth' surface has to be scrapped off to some extent. This is to create a rough texture on your teeth' surface for the easy sticking of the material used to make veneers. Apart from the agitation you get during the scrapping off of the enamel, the process should be completely pain-free.

Sensitivity and Discomfort


Since the process involves the removal of tooth surface material, you should expect sensitivity to some level. You will also experience some discomfort in the process. Don't worry, there are precautions you can take that will make you feel at ease during the treatment. A dentist can use a local anesthetic to numb around the tooth where the veneer will be put.

Veneers are not as painful as you may think, but it is normal to be nervous. An experienced dental practitioner should be in a good position to handle every patient since every person is different from others. In extreme cases of nervousness, a dentist can use nitrous oxide to calm you.

Oral Hygiene with Veneers


Since the gums are not interfered with during the process, you should maintain your normal oral care routine. Bad oral hygiene can lead to problems with veneers too. Brush your teeth twice a day as usual and try flossing them at least once a day.

Now that you understand that having veneers isn't as hurting as you thought it was, book an appointment with us and get to hear from the experts.
