Cosmetic dentistry aims to help you feel more confident by hiding tooth discoloration or damage. If you have cracks or gaps in your smile, consider the advantages of porcelain veneers.
porcelain veneers are created based on impressions of your teeth. The contouring and color of the porcelain shell will mimic your natural tooth enamel. Porcelain veneers not only look natural they feel natural as well. The ceramic covering conceals stained or cracked teeth so you can eat and talk usually.
Porcelain veneers can be used to fix various dental issues, including missing teeth, gaps between teeth, stained or discolored teeth, and chipped, broken, or misshapen teeth.
Porcelain is a very hard and strong material that can withstand the forces of biting and chewing, and it also has a smooth surface that resists staining. But their longevity and ability to resist stains depend on several factors, including
The quality of the materials used
The skill of the dentist or dental technician who placed them
The patient's oral hygiene habits
Veneers do not require special care, but be sure to brush twice a day and floss daily to reduce plaque and tartar buildup. Make sure to schedule regular Dental check-ups with your dentist to maintain good oral health.
Porcelain veneers are less invasive than other types of dental Restorations, such as dental crowns. Your dentist will need to shave a minimal amount from the surface of your teeth to make room for your veneers. This procedure requires little to no anesthesia.
To maintain veneers' durability and stain resistance, it's important to follow good oral hygiene practices, avoid biting or chewing on hard objects or foods, and visit your dentist regularly for check-ups and cleanings.
