VENEERS
What Are Veneers?
Dental veneers are thin shells made to cover the front surface of teeth, similar to crowns or bridges, but they are primarily used to enhance the appearance of your smile rather than replace missing teeth.
Who Can Get Dental Veneers?
While veneers can be an effective solution for achieving a brighter smile, not everyone is an ideal candidate:
- Insufficient Enamel: If a tooth lacks adequate enamel, the veneer may not adhere properly and could require replacement.
- Teeth Grinding or Clenching: Frequent grinding or clenching can lead to breaking or chipping of the veneers.
- Existing Dental Issues: If a tooth is severely decayed or affected by gum disease, these conditions must be addressed before veneers can be applied.
What Are the Advantages of Getting Veneers?
- Natural Appearance: Dental veneers look and feel very similar to natural teeth.
- Durable and Quick: They are durable and can be placed quickly, providing immediate results.
- Cosmetic Benefits: In addition to creating a brighter smile, veneers can also correct various dental imperfections, such as chips, stains, and gaps.
- Stain Resistance: Porcelain veneers are resistant to discoloration and stains, allowing you to maintain your bright smile for many years to come!
