Transform Your Smile with Porcelain Veneers
During your initial consultation, our doctors will discuss your desired outcomes and determine if porcelain veneers are the right solution for you. Together, we'll create mockups to visualize your new smile. If you’re happy with the results and ready to proceed, we will gently remove a small amount of enamel to make space for the veneers. Using our CEREC technology, we will take impressions and craft your veneers from a single block of high-quality porcelain. This advanced process allows you to receive your custom veneers in just one visit. Once the veneers are ready, we will bond them to the front of your teeth, ensuring they blend seamlessly with the natural color and texture of your smile for a beautiful, lasting result.
Am I a Candidate for Veneers?
Porcelain veneers are an excellent solution for addressing small cracks, chips, or teeth that are mismatched in size or shape. They can also enhance the overall aesthetic of your smile and complement your facial features. If you have stubborn intrinsic stains that don’t respond to whitening treatments, veneers might be the right option for you.
However, it’s important to understand that veneers are primarily a cosmetic treatment. They do not fix major orthodontic issues, decay, or tooth loss. Before proceeding with veneers, your teeth must be strong enough to support them. Our team will perform a comprehensive oral health evaluation to determine if veneers are the right choice for you. Any existing dental concerns will need to be addressed before starting the veneer process.
Advantages of Veneers
Porcelain veneers offer a range of benefits, making them a popular choice for enhancing smiles. These veneers are made from advanced materials that closely mimic the natural appearance of teeth, including their translucency and color. As a result, patients who choose veneers often experience improved self-esteem. A study from the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) found that individuals who received porcelain veneers reported significant boosts in confidence and overall quality of life.
Durability
Porcelain veneers are crafted from durable, stain-resistant material. Unlike more porous substances, porcelain does not absorb stains, helping to maintain a vibrant, long-lasting smile. For an even brighter result, many patients choose to undergo teeth whitening before getting their veneers.
Color Matching
Patients often choose to whiten their teeth before getting veneers to ensure a seamless color match. Whitening first allows the veneers to be crafted to match the brighter, more vibrant shade of the surrounding natural teeth.
Long-Term Durability
Porcelain veneers are known for their longevity, with an average lifespan of around 10 years when properly maintained. With good care, they can continue to enhance your smile for years to come.
