Veneers

Veneers are thin, custom-made shells designed to cover the front surface of teeth to improve their appearance. They are typically made of porcelain or composite resin, and they are bonded to the front of the teeth to change their color, shape, size, or length. Veneers are an ideal option for patients looking to correct a variety of cosmetic dental issues and achieve a more attractive smile.

Common Issues Veneers Address

• Discolored or stained teeth that cannot be whitened with traditional methods.
• Chipped or broken teeth.
• Teeth that are worn down.
• Uneven or misaligned teeth.
• Gaps between teeth.

Types of Veneers

• Porcelain Veneers – Strong, durable, and resistant to staining. They mimic the natural light-reflecting properties of teeth.
• Composite Resin Veneers – More affordable and repairable, but may not last as long as porcelain.

The Veneer Process

• Consultation: Evaluation and treatment planning.
• Preparation: Enamel is reduced slightly; impressions taken.
• Bonding: Veneers are adhered and adjusted for a perfect fit.

Benefits of Veneers

• Natural-looking results.
• Stain-resistant surface.
• Durable with proper care.
• Minimal alteration of tooth structure.

It is important to consult with a dentist to ensure veneers are the best choice for your individual needs.
