If you aren’t completely happy with your smile’s appearance, then your dentist can recommend one or more of a variety of cosmetic treatments to improve it. In many cases, porcelain veneers offer the optimal solution because of their lifelike appearance, and because they can address the most severe cosmetic blemishes in a single procedure. To find out if veneers are your best option, your dentist will first perform a comprehensive examination to diagnose the nature and extent of your smile’s concerns. Also, to answer any questions you may have about how cosmetic veneers can improve your smile.
How do veneers work?
Cosmetic dental veneers are typically made from durable, highly lifelike porcelain. Each wafer-thin shell is crafted according to your tooth’s specific measurements, and then bonded to the front of your tooth to completely restore its healthy appearance.
What issues can they address?
Porcelain veneers are designed for maximum results with minimal changes to your teeth, and because they create a brand new face for your tooth, they can address a wide variety of concerns. Chipped, lightly cracked, severely stained, and oddly spaced teeth can all be corrected with a well-placed, custom-designed porcelain veneer.
What if I need more than one veneer?
Addressing multiple concerns also means being able to restore more than one tooth at a time. If necessary, your dentist can design two or more veneers, depending on how many teeth you need to address. Because each veneer is made and placed separately, your smile will retain its natural, healthy appearance.
