Porcelain Veneers.
What Are Porcelain Veneers?
Porcelain veneers are ultra-thin, custom-designed shells made from high-quality porcelain that are bonded to the front surface of your teeth. They are often used to correct issues such as discoloration, chips, cracks, and misalignment, giving the teeth a more uniform, bright, and attractive appearance. Since they are made from porcelain, they closely resemble the natural look of tooth enamel, providing a highly aesthetic solution for those seeking a smile makeover.
How Do Porcelain Veneers Work?
The process of getting porcelain veneers typically involves two visits to your dentist. During the first visit, I will evaluate your oral health, discuss your aesthetic goals, and take impressions of your teeth. These impressions will be sent to a dental laboratory, where the custom porcelain veneers will be created to match your unique smile.
Once the veneers are ready, I will prepare your teeth by removing a small amount of enamel from the front surface. This ensures that the veneers will fit properly and blend seamlessly with your natural teeth. Afterward, I will carefully bond the veneers to your teeth using a strong dental adhesive, ensuring a secure and long-lasting result.
