Understanding the purpose of porcelain veneers
Porcelain veneers are essentially ceramic restorations that are made extremely thin. They are bonded over the front of a problematic tooth to instantly change the appearance of the smile. Porcelain veneers are natural-looking facings that are custom-made for each individual to ensure that they look beautiful when put in place. These restorations are perfect for creating that beautiful smile you’ve always wanted, and for addressing problem areas that may not be treated in any other manner.
Porcelain veneers are commonly used to cover:
• Misaligned teeth
• Gaps between teeth
• Permanently stained teeth
• Chipped and broken teeth
• Unusually shaped teeth
What happens in the process of obtaining a porcelain veneer?
Once patients have consulted with their dentist and determined that they are interested in moving forward with porcelain veneers, they need to undergo some minor preparations. The dentist will remove a thin portion of the natural tooth enamel from the front of the tooth before taking impressions, which are sent to a dental laboratory and are used to make a custom veneer. Patients return to the office when the veneer is complete to have it bonded over the imperfect tooth or teeth.
