Choosing Porcelain Dental Veneers for Your Smile

Have you noticed how your smile affects your mood? When you feel good about the state of your smile, you feel comfortable sharing it with everyone. A dazzling smile can light up a room, but a reserved, self-conscious smile can hold you back. If you’re dealing with cracks, chips, or staining, you may want to explore your options for cosmetic dentistry solutions. One of the best ways to improve the overall appearance of your smile is with porcelain dental veneers. Porcelain veneers correct a wide range of appearance defects, and they use the structure of your natural teeth as a base.

Porcelain Dental Veneers Cover Asymmetries and Irregularities in Your Teeth

Natural teeth rarely have the uniform, idyllic appearance that you’re after. That’s because your natural teeth experience wear over time. They can also grow in irregularly, and they may not all be the same size. These genetic traits are nothing to worry about. Porcelain veneers can still give you a straight, uniform smile. The porcelain veneers are thin shells that fit on the outside of your natural teeth. They can be fabricated to work as a perfect set of uniformly sized and shaped teeth, ideal for covering up small cracks, chips, or size discrepancies.

Choosing Porcelain Dental Veneers Can Increase the Brightness of Your Smile

Porcelain veneers don’t just create a more uniform smile, but they can also create a brighter smile. The porcelain can be treated to produce a brighter, whiter shade for the surface of your teeth. Furthermore, porcelain is stain-resistant, meaning that the whitening effect that you experience will typically last longer. Porcelain veneers can be an excellent whitening option for patients who experience intrinsic staining. This type of staining happens well beneath the dental enamel, and it can’t be bleached out with whitening treatment.

Porcelain Dental Veneers Work by Utilizing Your Natural Teeth

Porcelain dental veneers are also a minimally invasive treatment — another great reason to choose them for your cosmetic treatment. Your teeth won’t need much shaping or prep before receiving the veneers. The porcelain shells are fabricated based on specifications from your teeth. The veneers are then bonded to the surface of your natural teeth, giving them a strong base. Your gum tissue also tolerates porcelain well, meaning you aren’t likely to experience any irritation after you receive your dental veneers.
