Porcelain veneers consist of a thin layer of porcelain that is applied directly over your natural teeth. The process involves Dr. Smitherman preparing your teeth, then simply applying the thin layer of porcelain to cover each tooth. The procedure may be a simple one, but the end result is absolutely beautiful!
Porcelain veneers can be an effective way to address a variety of dental issues, including the following:
Veneers are thin shells of porcelain that are created in a local dental lab to mimic the look and even feel of real teeth. By using impressions of your teeth, the dental lab is able to create beautiful veneers that blend seamlessly into the rest of your smile without looking out of place. Veneers help to cover smaller imperfections of the teeth that would otherwise take a lot of work and money to correct. Veneers can also last for about 10 years, so you’re looking at a long-lasting dental option that provides high-quality results.
Some of the best candidates for porcelain veneers include:
One of the most beneficial aspects of the veneer procedure is that it is relatively noninvasive. Little to no anesthesia is required to buff down the teeth to make room for the veneers. Once the veneers are created, they will be permanently cemented onto the fronts of your teeth to create a flawless and beautiful smile. It is important that you take good care of your teeth as you normally would to ensure that the veneers stay in good shape for years.
