What exactly are porcelain veneers and which dental imperfections do they repair?
Porcelain veneers are actually thinly crafted porcelain laminates that are bonded by a cosmetic dentist to the buffed down front surface of a tooth or teeth. This enamel is buffed and shaped before the veneer is fitted on and adhered. Porcelain laminates leave the tooth looking lengthened, straightened and smooth. Veneers repair dental imperfections such as broken, chipped, jagged or discolored teeth as well as spaces and worn out teeth.
