After decades of use, edges wear, colour deepens and older dental work begins to show. If you have started to notice these changes, veneers are one option to have assessed.
Let's find a time
It is quite common for front teeth to look shorter and darker later in life than they once did. There is no upper age on asking about veneers. What counts is the condition of your teeth and gums, and whether thin restorations can reasonably do what you are hoping for.
Old Kildonan is in Winnipeg, and residents can ask for an assessment at Winnipeg North Dental on McPhillips Street. Your dental background matters here, because past fillings, crowns or gum changes all become part of what the dentist considers.

Suitability rests on your oral health and goals, and not on the year you were born.
Existing restorations and how they look beside any new veneer form part of the plan.
A refreshed smile can still suit your face, with a shade you are comfortable wearing.
Some of what time does to teeth lies on the surface. Other changes run deeper or involve the gums, and they call for a different conversation.
These visible changes are among the goals that a veneer is designed to help with.
These issues would generally be reviewed before thinking about a cosmetic restoration.
If your teeth have more going on than veneers can address, your dentist can talk through other restorations that may be more appropriate.
The stages of veneer care are the same at any age, but a longer dental history may mean there is more to discuss along the way.
Request your visitYour dentist reviews your health, any medications, and previous dental work, then examines the teeth, gums and bite to see what is realistic.
Photographs, scans and shade selection help outline what is proposed. A preview, if used, can show changes in proportion before you decide.
A conservative amount of enamel is shaped where it is needed for the design. Thorough records are collected so the veneers can be fabricated.
Each veneer gets tried in, giving you a look alongside your other teeth and existing work. You approve it first, then it is bonded.
A clear record of your health saves time and helps the dentist plan appropriately. If your medications have changed recently, or you see several specialists, a written list can be simpler than relying on memory.
Reading glasses, a hearing aid or anything else you rely on for appointments is worth bringing along, so you can follow the discussion comfortably.

Some people feel a little sheepish about wanting cosmetic work later in life. There is no need to. It is a perfectly reasonable thing to ask about, and you may take your time deciding.
Let us know if your neck, back or joints make long periods of lying back difficult.
Ask us to repeat or slow down any part of the discussion so that you can follow it easily.
You can tell the team at any stage if you would like a moment to sit up and rest.
Keeping it going
A veneer needs the same steady care as your natural teeth. Keeping things simple and manageable makes it easier to stay on top of them.
Ask for advice if flossing has become difficult, since cleaning between veneered teeth remains a part of the routine.
Gum changes can happen around a veneer as they can around any tooth, and they can alter how it looks. Report changes you notice.
Keep veneers away from hard objects. Older restorations and worn teeth may also benefit from a discussion of grinding and night guards.
A chipped or lifted veneer that concerns you is a reason to pick up the phone, not to wait on the online form.

Helpful details about dental veneers in Old Kildonan.
Ask our teamAge alone does not rule them out. Your dentist looks at enamel, gums, bite and any existing dental work, then tells you whether veneers make sense for your situation.
Often the concern is matching, because a veneer’s shade has to work beside existing restorations. Have your dentist assess the area and explain how any older work might be handled.
Bring your full list so your dentist can review it with your health history. They can then tell you whether anything needs to be considered in planning your care.
Minor edge wear may be something veneers can improve. If the wear is heavier, your dentist will want to look at the cause, because grinding forces can damage thin restorations.
The shade is chosen with you, keeping your remaining teeth and your own preference in mind. You can ask for something that stays understated and natural in your smile.
Veneers do not treat the gums, and stable tissue is part of what makes them suitable. If your gums have changed, ask what care might be appropriate before cosmetic planning.
