Veneers can correct mild to moderate size, shape, spacing, stains and discoloration problems with your teeth. These problems may be caused by trauma or as a side effect of certain medications.
Common Uses For Porcelain Veneers
- Correct mild or moderate chips and cracks
- Close small gaps and alignment issues—significant spacing and bite problems may require orthodontic treatment
- Change the size or shape of uneven teeth
- Seal a tooth after root canal therapy
- Whiten intrinsic stains and discolorations that can't be removed with professional teeth whitening treatments
How Dental Veneers Work
As their name implies, most veneers are made of a custom designed razor thin layer of porcelain, which is bonded directly onto the surface of your tooth and molded to achieve the desired size and shape. In some cases, a thin layer of enamel may have to be removed to ensure a natural and smooth fit. Porcelain closely matches the color and texture of a natural tooth, making porcelain veneers a highly effective but subtle treatment for the cosmetic imperfections that diminish a smile over time.
