DENTAL VENEERS PROCEDURE
Porcelain dental veneers are thin, ceramic shells that are placed over damaged, misaligned, or stained teeth that are showing the effects of years of coffee or wine-drinking, tobacco use and other issues. Treatment with porcelain dental veneers begins with an impression made from your teeth. This impression will allow porcelain veneers to be custom-made for the affected teeth, ensuring a comfortable fit. After the veneer is designed, it is color-tinted to match the surrounding teeth and attached to the teeth with a durable cement. The damaged teeth are now concealed with a healthy-looking porcelain veneer that can last decades.
Porcelain dental veneers can be an excellent way of addressing common problems with your teeth and creating a beautiful new smile with results that look and feel natural. If you have more questions feel free to contact us or visit our dental veneers Frequently Asked Questions page.
