Porcelain Veneers
Porcelain veneers are becoming increasingly popular, because they provide beautiful natural-looking results. Teeth that have gaps or spaces between them, are discolored, badly shaped, or crooked can often be corrected with porcelain veneers. Teeth that have been damaged by trauma, or teeth that have developmental defects, can also be restored with porcelain veneers.
Porcelain veneers are thin shells of high-quality porcelain that are custom designed to cover the front surfaces of the teeth. Modern porcelain veneers are very thin, translucent, and natural-looking. Our cosmetic dentists will carefully consider your mouth, facial features, skin tone, and personal preferences while designing veneers that will transform your smile.
The entire veneer process, from design to placement, usually takes just two short visits. At your first visit, the dentist will examine your teeth, take impressions, design the veneers, and prepare your teeth. The dentist will remove a small amount of tooth enamel and fit you with temporary veneers, so you can get a feel for your new smile. This process ensures that the veneers fit against the teeth and just below the gumline without appearing bulky. In some cases, we can place no-prep veneers called Lumineers. The doctor will carefully examine your teeth to determine which option is best.
Once your permanent, handcrafted porcelain veneers arrive, the doctor can place them in a second visit. You can begin enjoying your perfectly aligned, dazzling white smile immediately! Care for you porcelain veneers as you would your natural teeth, with thorough oral hygiene and regular dental visits, and they’ll last for years and years.
