At The Fort Collins Dentist, Dr. Allison Lesko and Dr. Emily Riesgraf help patients achieve smiles that look bright, healthy, and confident. For those struggling with deep discoloration—especially medical stains caused by certain medications—porcelain dental veneers offer one of the most effective and lasting solutions.
Why Medical Stains Are Different
Not all stains are created equal. While surface stains from coffee, wine, or smoking can often be removed with whitening treatments, medical stains are typically much deeper and more resistant. These intrinsic stains can make teeth appear gray, brown, or discolored, and unfortunately, no amount of whitening will fully remove them. This is where dental veneers provide a transformative option.
How Veneers Conceal Stubborn Stains
Porcelain veneers are thin shells of tooth-colored material that are bonded to the front surface of your teeth. By covering the natural tooth, they instantly mask discoloration while also enhancing the overall shape and appearance of your smile. Veneers not only eliminate the appearance of medical stains but also correct chips, small gaps, and uneven teeth, making them a versatile cosmetic solution.
A Natural and Lasting Transformation
One of the greatest benefits of porcelain veneers is how seamlessly they blend into your natural smile. With careful color-matching and custom shaping, Dr. Lesko and Dr. Riesgraf ensure that your veneers look realistic and complement your surrounding teeth. Once placed, veneers are strong, durable, and resistant to future staining. With proper care, they can last between five and ten years, giving you long-term confidence in your smile.
The Veneer Process at The Fort Collins Dentist
Your journey to a new smile begins with a thorough consultation. Dr. Lesko or Dr. Riesgraf will examine your teeth and gums to ensure veneers are the right option for you. To prepare for placement, a thin layer of enamel is removed so the veneers fit comfortably and look natural. Impressions are then taken and sent to a dental lab, where your custom veneers are crafted with precision.
At your follow-up appointment, the veneers are bonded to your teeth using a strong dental adhesive and cured with a special light for a secure, lasting fit. Once complete, you’ll leave our office with a radiant, flawless smile designed to stand the test of time.
