Porcelain dental veneers is one of the most popular ways to achieve a beautiful, new smile. If you are unhappy with your smile and would like to correct a cosmetic flaw, porcelain veneers may be the best answer to your concern.
The procedure of veneers is minimally invasive and is an attractive alternative to more comprehensive procedures. Veneers easily correct imperfections such as chipped, misshapen or stained teeth, even the gaps between teeth.
If you are facing one of the following situations, porcelain veneers could be your answer.
Crooked or rotated teeth
Peg shape lateral incisors
Gaps between teeth
Discoloured teeth
Worn teeth
Veneers can help with all these issues by:
Masking teeth that are aged or discoloured
Closing diastemas – the spaces between teeth
Adjusting the shape or size of tooth
Hiding worn and stained teeth
Repairing crooked teeth
Fixing a gummy smile
Porcelain veneers are custom-made thin shells, which are as thin as contact lenses. They are finely crafted and bonded over your teeth to mask the underlying enamel. Covering the damaged part easily improves the overall appearance of your teeth.
The procedure is generally completed in two appointments. During the first visit, your dentist Wantirna removes a small amount of enamel from the front teeth. On the second visit, your porcelain veneers are fitted into place.
At your second visit, your dentist will check your veneers for fit and comfort. Any necessary adjustments are made before bonding the veneers to your teeth permanently. Dental cement is used to bond the veneers. The veneers are fine-tuned and then permanently connected to your teeth.
Porcelain veneers match the natural colour of your surrounding teeth. Though they are extremely fine, veneers are quite strong and durable. Porcelain is also non-porous; thus, staining pigments can no longer enter the tooth surface where the veneer is bonded.
In a single treatment, porcelain veneers can correct various surface aesthetic flaws. They look more lifelike than other similar enhancements and are stronger than composite resin. Porcelain veneers are also dubbed as instant orthodontics as they can dramatically improve the teeth’s appearance and function without requiring the months needed with traditional braces.
Porcelain veneers provide a natural-looking, healthy smile. They can make your smile radiant and beautiful in an instant. With correct care and regular dental visits, your porcelain veneers will enable you to enjoy a healthy, stunning smile for many years.
