Porcelain Veneers

Years ago, smile makeovers involved multiple dental treatments over a period of several months. That's no longer the case, thanks to porcelain veneers. In recent times, veneers have become one of the most commonly sought after cosmetic procedures. Porcelain veneers are ultra-thin shells made of translucent porcelain or ceramic that can be bonded to your teeth for cosmetic purposes. They are versatile and durable, requiring minimal preparation and only a few changes to the natural structure of your teeth. There is also little to no anesthesia needed during the procedure.

Once the veneers are permanently placed, they should feel like your natural teeth. To protect them from chipping, avoid biting down on hard substances, like apples. Be sure to cut them down before eating them. Also, avoid clenching and/or grinding your teeth which can cause destruction to your veneers.

Porcelain veneers are an excellent option, whether you want a total smile makeover or need to cover a chipped tooth, mask a cracked tooth, rid crowding of teeth, or close gaps between your teeth. They require little to no prepping and can often be applied in just one dental visit!
