WOULDN’T PORCELAIN VENEERS BE A BETTER WAY TO MAKE MY TEETH APPEAR STRAIGHTER?
Porcelain veneers are another way to make teeth appear straight, however there are advantages and disadvantages. Porcelain veneers work well for cases where the teeth need veneering anyway because of large existing fillings or severe discoloration. It’s fast because only a couple of visits and the treatment is finished. In most cases, porcelain veneer treatment necessitates removing healthy tooth structure. Once veneers are done they are always needed, you can’t go back. Most patients would require replacement of porcelain veneers at least once in their lifetime, which increases cost. Once teeth are straightened with Invisalign, the teeth themselves require no maintenance except appropriate retainer wear specified by the doctor.
