One of our services are veneers. These are ultra-thin porcelain that are cemented to the front side of the teeth. I usually will describe to my patients that they’re kind of like an acrylic nail, so the thickness of an acrylic nail, that are instead of them being cemented to the tops of the nail, they’re cemented to the front side of the teeth.
I’m really excited, I just finally got my Perfect Veneers, my Perfect Smile Veneers in the mail. And we’re gonna open it and give it a try.
It is not uncommon in cosmetic dentistry to change the shape and appearance of a tooth, or several teeth. Veneers in Fort Lauderdale are custom made shells of tooth like materials that reface the teeth. By applying these “shells” the teeth can have a totally different appearance of size, shape and even color.
Dental Veneers are most commonly used to fix teeth that are damaged, possibly due to a root canal or other dental procedures. They are also an effective remedy for teeth with gaps, teeth that are chipped or cracked, teeth that have an odd or unsightly shape, or that are stained and not responding to whitening treatments.
Modern dentistry has come up with a single solution for tooth chips, stains, and misalignments: porcelain dental veneers. Porcelain veneers are efficient and they yield beautiful results – no wonder they are the most commonly used type of treatment in cosmetic dentistry. They are by far the best way to restore the beauty of your smile. Dr. Jonathan Cook, one of the most acclaimed dentists in Fort Lauderdale, has plenty of experience with porcelain dental veneers and can offer you this simple, yet efficient solution for a wide array of dental problems.
You’ve got really two different types of veneers for the most part. One is a prepless (no preparation) veneer, or in some cases people like to refer to them as Lumineers, which is really just a marketing term. It’s not a particular type of porcelain, or it’s not a particular, different type of veneer. It’s just a porcelain facing on the tooth, just as a traditional veneer would be.
I have patients who have a habit of biting on pens while at work or chew on toothpicks, or eat really, really heavy foods, like breads that are super crispy and they go to bite down on their front teeth and it’s probably a bad idea to go that route.
There are no risks involved. The patient has to understand and be aware that part of the enamel will be removed and it doesn’t grow back. But no patient is going to know any different.
A healthy, beautiful smile is something that most people desire almost as much as they would want to have flawless facial skin or silky, flowing hair. A smile is one of the things that other people will notice upon meeting you, so naturally, you will want to make a good impression by confidently flashing healthy, pearly whites.

At JJ Dental our insurance specialists deal directly with your insurance providers.
A thorough breakdown of your benefits allows us to give you the most accurate coverage estimate possible. Based on this information we can provide you with a plan that maximizes your benefits and minimizes your out of pocket expense. Once treatment has begun we will even submit the insurance claims on your behalf to eliminate any headaches for you. (See Accepted Insurance)
While a majority of insurance plans will cover a large percentage of preventative and restorative care, they rarely cover cosmetic procedures. For any procedures not covered or beyond your plans maximum benefit, we provide several payment options including cash, check, money order, and major credit cards. We also offer flexible, no interest monthly installment plans through care credit and lending club that help you get the treatment you need without a financial burden.
We believe that there are three main considerations that you should be aware of when choosing a dentist.
Does the dentist care deeply about you and your dental health?
Is the dentist skilled enough to consistently provide the highest quality of dental care?
Does the dentist have the team and the tools available to provide you with the highest quality of care?
At JJ Dental our entire team is proud to be able to answer yes to each of these critical questions.
