Dental Veneers
Dental veneers are ultra-thin shells, often crafted from porcelain or resin, that are bonded to the front surfaces of your teeth to improve the overall appearance of your smile. These custom-made veneers are an excellent solution for addressing various dental imperfections, allowing you to achieve a brighter and more uniform smile.
Porcelain veneers are particularly popular due to their natural look and durability. The color and translucency of porcelain closely mimic the appearance of natural tooth enamel, making these veneers blend seamlessly with your existing teeth. Additionally, porcelain is resistant to stains, helping your smile remain vibrant and bright over time. Resin veneers, while also effective, offer a more cost-effective option that can be customized to match the color of your natural teeth.
Our dentist may recommend dental veneers to address a range of aesthetic concerns. These may include:
- Closing noticeable gaps between teeth
- Whitening teeth that are severely stained or discolored
- Improving the shape and appearance of irregularly shaped teeth
- Correcting minor misalignments or crooked teeth
- Restoring teeth that are broken, chipped or worn
The process of getting dental veneers typically involves a few visits to our office. During your initial consultation, we will assess your dental needs and discuss your goals to determine if veneers are the right option for you. Custom impressions of your teeth are taken to create veneers that fit perfectly and look natural. Once your veneers are ready, they are securely bonded to your teeth, resulting in a stunning transformation.
