Cosmetic Dentistry Offers Many Choices: Consider Porcelain Veneers

One of the often asked questions I receive when patients are considering cosmetic enhancements to their smile is: what are porcelain veneers?

Porcelain veneers are thin shells of ceramic that bond directly to the front surfaces of the teeth. They are an ideal choice for improving your smile and have become increasingly popular due to their simplicity and versatility.


My artistry of designing custom veneers requires a high degree of technical skill as well as attention to cosmetic detail. We place veneers routinely, and design each case individually to match and enhance the characteristics of each patient's smile.

In the consultation, my patients usually ask: will they look like normal teeth?

When bonded to the teeth, the ultra-thin porcelain veneers are virtually undetectable and highly resistant to coffee, tea, or even cigarette stains. For strength and appearance, their resemblance to healthy, white tooth enamel is unsurpassed by other restorative options. 

A very understandable concern is durability. When patients ask how durable are porcelain veneers, I offer this:

 

With proper care, porcelain veneers will brighten your smile for well over a decade.
We ensure that your veneers are crafted from the highest quality porcelains and are bonded with the most advanced and proven materials available.

Refraining from using your veneers as tools to open and cut things will prolong their life, and if accidental breakage or damage occurs, it is usually possible to replace only the veneer involved. 

The most remarkable change I see in most of my patients when they opt for veneers is the newly found confidence and raised self esteem. It's deeply rewarding to watch this transformation. 

Let's see if you are a candidate for veneers. A new life awaits you.
