Porcelain Veneers and Your Smile
Time to take down the lights, get rid of the tree, and throw away that eggnog. The holidays are over, and as you move away from carols to Valentine’s cards, there is still one thing that should not be left in holiday’s past—your New Year’s Resolutions.
While most people stop lifting weights or crashing dieting a few days into the New Year, there is no reason why you should not strive to reach your goals. And maybe one of your goals is less than traditional. Maybe you have been hoping and wishing to improve your smile so you can feel confident every time you have to show your pearly whites. Maybe it is the time to consider porcelain veneers.
Porcelain veneers are thin shells that are applied to the front of your existing teeth to give you the look and feel of that “Hollywood Smile” that you have always wanted. To learn more about porcelain veneers and the short procedure process, keep reading Dr. Roberto Monteagudo’s Center for Smile Designs blog.
The Porcelain Veneers Procedure
You might already be thinking to yourself, “What does the porcelain veneers procedure entail? I know that a lot of procedures take a lot of time—is this one of those procedures?”
The porcelain veneers procedure is relatively simple, and usually can be completed in a total of three visits. During the first visit, Dr. Monteagudo will consult with you about the procedure and see if it is the right fit to meet your cosmetic dentistry goals. He can evaluate your dental x-rays, and listen to any questions or concerns that you have about the procedure. If it looks like porcelain veneers are the way to go, then you will proceed onwards to your next visit.
During the second visit, Dr. Monteagudo will take molds of your teeth so he can send the models to a laboratory to make the veneers. After about a week, the veneers will arrive and you will return for a third visit.
During your final visit, Dr. Monteagudo will remove some of the enamel from your teeth so that the veneers can be attached. He will trim and form the veneer so that he can achieve the perfect fit. Dr. Monteagudo will also match the porcelain veneer with the color of your natural teeth. And then it is the moment that you have been waiting for! Your smile will be revealed and you can see the impact of the porcelain veneers!

Your Smile
You work hard. Every day you set out with the intention of making a difference, and at the end of the day, you feel like you have made a small step forward. And now, you are being recognized for your efforts by the city.
Everyone is going to be at the event, and when the invitation comes in the mail for you, all you want to do is smile. But something holds you back! “I can’t smile with these crooked teeth,” you say to yourself. “And I definitely can’t smile the way I want to at this big event.”
Maybe you have felt the same way. Hesitant to show your smile because you aren’t satisfied by the image that greets you in the mirror. But, you are not alone. And as an added bonus, you are not too old to make a significant difference to your smile.
With Invisalign and Dr. Robert Monteagudo, you can have the smile that you always wanted in no time flat. Sound too good to be possible? Keep reading Dr. Monteagudo’s blog to learn about how Invisalign has worked for people of all ages, with a price tag comparable to that of braces.
Invisalign Results
Invisalign uses the latest dental technology to deliver the best results possible. A new aligner is given to you every two to three weeks, and you simply just wear the aligner 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. The only time that you remove the aligner is to eat, drink, and brush those pearly whites. So not only can you eat and maintain normal oral hygiene, but no one can tell that you are straightening your teeth! That’s right, the aligners are invisible!
Now you might be thinking that there has to be a catch to Invisalign. Something like that the aligners make your teeth green or that no one actually has good results. But the truth of the matter is that Invisalign’s technology works and has helped countless individuals gain the smiles that they have always wanted.
For example, check out these Invisalign before and after cases!
This 27-year old woman was concerned about her jaw being misaligned. Her Invisalign treatment lasted only 9 months, and she walked away with beautiful results!
Another case is from a 56-year old man who believed that his teeth were abnormally spaced apart. His dentist was also concerned about the risk of periodontal disease, so they decided to move forward with an Invisalign treatment. The total treatment lasted 10 months, and he now has a smile he can be proud of!
