What are Porcelain Veneers?
Custom-made shells crafted from high-quality dental porcelain, veneers are designed to cover the front surface of teeth, providing an aesthetically pleasing appearance. Our veneers dentist can use them as a way to fix tooth discoloration, small gaps in between teeth, chipped teeth, or worn enamel.
Their versatility makes them a popular choice for individuals seeking a comprehensive and transformative enhancement to their smile. Dr. Klein can meet with you one-on-one if you are interested in pursuing the and explain how customization plays a large role in creating that final result. From there, we can pinpoint exactly what you'd like to change about your smile and select the best shade, length, size, and shape to go with for tooth veneers.
Dr. Klein will also be sure to focus on gum tissue management throughout the process, and may ask you to return a couple of weeks after your application appointment to ensure the gum tissue is responding properly. When all is said and done – and when properly taken care of – you'll have your perfect smile.
Advantages of Porcelain Veneers
One of the primary lies in their ability to provide a remarkably natural appearance. The material used to create veneers closely mimics the translucency, texture, and light-reflecting nature of natural enamel so each one will seamlessly blend with your surrounding teeth.
In addition to their visual appeal, porcelain veneers are known for their durability and longevity. Many patients are pleased to know that veneers are resistant to stains and discoloration which allows them to maintain their bright and vibrant appearance over time. This stain-resistant property is particularly beneficial for individuals who enjoy coffee, tea, red wine, or foods that feature tomato-based sauces as it helps preserve the whiteness of the veneers.
The application of porcelain veneers is also permanent and involves less enamel removal than other treatments such as dental crowns. This conservative approach saves more of your natural tooth structure while still achieving significant improvements in appearance. Overall, porcelain veneers are an attractive choice for those looking to enhance their smiles.
