Porcelain Veneers

The Facts About Dental Veneers.

Even a subtle change in your smile can make a dramatic difference in the way you look and feel and on your social outlook!  Dental Veneers are an excellent cosmetic remedy for a variety of dental conditions that affect the appearance of the front teeth.  Durable and color-stable, veneers are, in many cases, the perfect way to restore the natural function and beauty of your teeth, so you can smile with confidence! Veneers, usually fabricated from porcelain, are a thin, semi-translucent "shell" custom made to fit precisely over an existing tooth. They are permanently bonded, held in place by a special resin that adheres the back of the veneer to the front of the tooth. The finished result is extremely strong and durable.  Though veneers are not suitable for every patient, they are a cosmetic alternative for a variety of dental conditions affecting the front teeth, including:
  1. closing diastemas(spaces between the teeth)
  2. restoring broken or chipped teeth
  3. covering unsjghtly, stained or washed:out filliings
  4. whitening permanently stained or discolored teeth
  5. correcting uneven or crooked teeth

Advantages and Benefits of Veneers

When your smile is disfigured by decay, abrasion, chipping, breakage or imperfect development, our goal is to restore its natural beauty so you can smile with confidence. At one time, resin fillings or crowns were the only available treatment for the above types of conditions. Today, a third alternative is available - one with proven results!  There are many benefits and advantages to having porcelain veneers applied to your front teeth.
