Get Straighter, Whiter Teeth With Dental Veneers

Cosmetic dental veneers are a thin aesthetic restoration that’s bonded to the front of your teeth in your "smile zone." — the teeth that are most obvious when you smile or laugh. When several individual veneers are paired together, the shape and color of each veneer recreate the appearance of your overall smile.

Dental veneers are excellent for helping teeth to look:

• Straighter
• Whiter
• Correctly shaped
• Evenly sized
• Free of gaps or crowding
• Healthier

For the best results, several veneers are placed along your upper front teeth to make your overall smile look straighter. On average, most people benefit from 6-10 veneers on their upper front teeth. Single veneers, on the other hand, are occasionally used for specific teeth with aesthetic concerns like staining or chipped enamel.

What Materials Are Used to Create Veneers?

The majority of cosmetic veneers are made of porcelain. Each one is a thin shell that bonds to the front of a tooth but does not completely cover it like a crown. Porcelain is durable and reflects light in a way that allows the veneers to look more like natural teeth.

Veneers are sometimes made of tooth-colored composite materials, similar to white fillings or bonding. These same-day veneers work best when only one or two teeth are involved.

“How Will My Dental Veneers Look?”

You get to choose how your new smile will look. Each veneer can be customized in terms of size, width, length, and shape. You can even select the exact shade of white to complement your natural facial structure. As a smile makeover client, you get to have a say in how your teeth will look.

Are Dental Veneers a Good Option for Me?

Cosmetic veneers are an excellent option if you want to quickly improve the look of your smile and you already have healthy teeth and gums. The veneers procedure only requires 2-3 appointments and can be completed in less than a month.
