A smile is one of the first things people notice about you, so it’s no surprise that many seek dental veneers to enhance their smile. At West Seattle Smile Co., Dr. Geoffrey Johnston helps patients achieve natural-looking veneers that blend seamlessly with their teeth. If you’ve been thinking about veneers but worry they’ll look “fake,” Dr. Johnston’s approach ensures you’ll love your results and feel confident in your new smile.
Customization is Key
Dr. Johnston understands that every patient has unique needs, and one of the first steps in ensuring a natural look is a personalized approach to treatment. Instead of opting for a one-size-fits-all solution, Dr. Johnston takes time to assess your smile, facial features, and overall dental health. Whether you’re looking to correct discoloration, shape irregularities, or restore damaged teeth, the customization process makes all the difference.
By carefully analyzing the size, shape, and color of your teeth, Dr. Johnston ensures that your veneers blend perfectly with your natural smile. The goal is to make the veneers look like they were always part of your teeth, so no one can tell you’ve had work done.
The Art of Shaping Veneers
A significant factor in achieving a natural look is the precise shaping of the veneers. Dr. Johnston uses advanced digital technology to craft veneers that mimic the natural contours of your teeth. This attention to detail is essential in creating a smile that feels comfortable and looks authentic.
Whether you’re aiming for a subtle enhancement or a complete smile transformation, the veneers are carefully shaped to match the curves of your existing teeth. They will look and feel like a natural extension of your mouth, without the “overdone” look that some veneers may give.
Using High-Quality Materials for Authenticity
At West Seattle Smile Co., only the highest quality materials are used to create veneers. Dr. Johnston carefully selects the best porcelain or composite resin to ensure that your veneers not only look great but also feel natural and durable. These materials closely resemble the texture and translucency of natural teeth, offering a more lifelike appearance.
Porcelain veneers, in particular, are a great option for achieving a highly realistic smile. Porcelain is known for its ability to reflect light in the same way natural tooth enamel does, so the final result looks incredibly similar to your original teeth.
Color Matching for Seamless Blending
One of the main concerns with veneers is color matching. Dr. Johnston works with you to select a shade that complements your natural teeth. This is especially important for patients seeking veneers for their front teeth, where color variation is often more noticeable.
By taking into account your skin tone, the shade of your surrounding teeth, and your preferences, Dr. Johnston ensures that the veneers don’t stand out unnaturally. The goal is to give you a smile that feels just right—bright and beautiful without drawing unwanted attention.
Preserving Your Natural Smile Line
A natural smile doesn’t just come from the veneers themselves but also from the overall shape and symmetry of your smile. Dr. Johnston focuses on maintaining your natural smile line—the curve of your upper teeth as they align with your lips. This ensures that your veneers fit within the context of your face, enhancing your smile without making it look out of place.
Dr. Johnston pays attention to how your new smile will look when you talk, laugh, or smile. The veneers will match your lip movement and ensure your smile looks as natural as possible, no matter the situation.
