Veneers
Porcelain veneers
Porcelain Veneers are extremely thin strips of porcelain that are secured to the outer-facing portion of your tooth. They are uniquely made to match the natural coloring of the surrounding teeth, concealing any imperfections and bringing back your fullest smile. The veneers are nearly impossible to detect and extremely simple to apply. Plus, they’re durable and resistant to staining, whether it’s from coffee, red wine or whatever else your teeth endure. With proper care, porcelain veneers tend to last about 10-15 years.
If stained, crooked, chipped or cracked teeth are keeping you from showing off your smile, it might be time to consider dental veneers or Lumineers. A porcelain or dental veneer is one of the most popular cosmetic procedures to quickly enhance patient smiles.
Who Should Get Porcelain Veneers?
One of the least invasive cosmetic procedures, veneers are for most anyone who is dissatisfied with the current look of their smile. Whether that’s because a tooth has become chipped, or stained, or if a gap has developed between two teeth, these thin veneers can cover almost anything. Veneers may also be right for people with crooked or misshapen teeth, without the high cost of an orthodontic procedure.
In very few cases a patient will not be a good candidate for veneers. If a patient does not have enough enamel for veneer placement, patients will be presented with other options. Also, patients need to be in good oral health with any tooth decay being addressed prior to moving forward.
