What Veneers Can Fix
Porcelain veneers are one of the most powerful cosmetic dentistry procedures available. They can be used to correct teeth that are:
- Discolored
- Chipped
- Crooked
- Gapped
- Worn
- Short or poorly shaped
And the procedure can correct them all at the same time.
Veneers can even be used to customize your smile, not only making your smile more attractive, but subtly enhancing characteristics of youth, energy, masculinity, femininity, or other personal traits you want your smile to convey.
The Porcelain Veneer Process
First, we will prepare your teeth and take an impression. Highly-skilled dental ceramists will then craft wafer-thin shells in a shade that can exactly match your natural tooth color, match your whitened teeth, or conceal discolored teeth to make your smile significantly whiter. Prepare to be transformed on your next visit. Your porcelain veneers will bond to your teeth and seamlessly cover gaps, stains, cracks, or chips for real results.
How Long Do Porcelain Veneers Last?
Some people worry that “porcelain” veneers are fragile, but dental veneers are actually made of high-grade advanced ceramics. Studies have shown that when properly placed by an experienced cosmetic dentist, 90-95% of porcelain veneers are still in place ten years later. And about 85% of veneers are expected to be in place after 20 years.
With proper care and treatment, veneers give you a smile that doesn’t stain or dull, and lasts for decades.
