Smile With Porcelain Veneers
Porcelain
veneers are often used for the same reasons as bonding (to lighten
stains, close gaps and even alter crooked or malformed teeth). They
are considerable more durable and stain resistant than bonding.
The veneer is actually a thin piece of porcelain similar in size
to a fingernail. Once it is "bonded" onto the tooth it becomes
extremely strong. It also blends in with the remaining tooth
structure so that it is unnoticeable to the naked-eye. Once in
place, it looks, feels, and functions just like a regular tooth.
Porcelain veneers can be utilized to change the shape and color
of a single tooth or if necessary, revamp an entire smile. Porcelain
veneers can also be used to correct teeth that have been worn from
clenching and grinding.
Please call for a cosmetic consultation. You may ask any
questions you have about the benefits of porcelain veneers.
