Why use a porcelain veneer?
If you want a confident smile without a long runway of cosmetic dentistry, porcelain veneers can provide a conservative approach to changing a tooth’s color, size or shape. In just a few visits porcelain veneers often improve crowded or crooked teeth beyond what traditional orthodontics could achieve in two years. Dental veneers can mask undesirable defects, such as teeth stained by tetracycline, by an injury or as a result of a root-canal procedure. They’re ideal for masking discolored fillings in front teeth. Patients with short teeth, gaps between their teeth or teeth that are chipped or worn may consider porcelain veneers. Even people that are missing some front teeth can often benefit from veneers! Generally, dental veneers last for many years, and the technique has shown remarkable longevity when properly performed.
