What are cosmetic porcelain veneers?
Porcelain veneers are considered a popular cosmetic dental treatment designed to improve the appearance of your natural teeth and smile. Typically made from high-quality porcelain material, veneers are both durable and incredibly lifelike, mimicking the natural translucency of healthy tooth enamel. Whether you are dealing with discoloration that will not respond to professional teeth whitening treatments, gaps between teeth, minor chips, or slightly crooked teeth, dental veneers can help create a symmetrical, beautifully aligned smile.
Why should I think about using veneers to enhance my smile?
There are plenty of reasons why our patients love porcelain veneers. To begin with, they offer one of the most minimally invasive ways to achieve dramatic improvements to your teeth. Unlike our quality dental crowns, which cover the entire tooth, veneers only require a very thin layer of enamel removal (if any at all). This preserves the majority of your natural tooth enamel and tooth structure.
Porcelain veneers are also highly resistant to any staining, meaning you can enjoy coffee, tea, and even red wine with fewer worries about discoloration. With proper care, they are strong and built to last, often maintaining their beauty for ten years or longer. Best of all, they provide a natural-looking enhancement. Thanks to their translucency and customized color, your veneers blend seamlessly with your existing smile.
