Porcelain dental veneers are a terrific option if you want to permanently enhance your smile. Similar to an artificial fingernail, these dental restorations are small shells that fit over the fronts of your teeth. The porcelain material can be stained to match your actual teeth or to make your smile look whiter. Consider porcelain veneers for your teeth for a variety of reasons.
How Porcelain Veneers Work
Your dentist will first make impressions of your teeth before constructing porcelain veneers for you. Your teeth will then have some of their enamel removed in order to provide a surface for the bonding of the veneers. Due to the removal of the enamel, veneers are a permanent fix. The veneers are bonded to your teeth with dental cement that is tooth-colored.
When to Use Veneers
A porcelain veneer can make your smile appear more even if one of your teeth is slightly out of place. You can also use these veneers if your tooth is chipped. The damaged tooth’s look is improved by the entire shape of the veneer. They can also be utilized if you have medication-induced discoloration or staining of your teeth.
Porcelain veneer benefits
Utilizing porcelain veneers has several benefits. Your tooth just needs to be slightly prepared, which makes the procedure quick and easy. The veneers make your teeth appear more natural and healthy since they are made specifically for your mouth for a snug fit. They are also less expensive than braces and require less treatment than a dental crown for a cosmetic problem.
