What Are Porcelain Veneers?<\/h2>\n

Using thin sheaths of porcelain, your dentist can cover chips, cracks, stain, gaps between your teeth, and minor misalignments. These shell coverings are not only durable, but they\u2019re permanent, which means, once you have porcelain veneers placed, you cannot return to your original smile.<\/p>\n

Porcelain veneers are a lasting solution that will completely transform your smile.<\/p>\n

How Does the Process Work?<\/h2>\n

After talking with your cosmetic dentist about having porcelain veneers placed, you can expect your treatment to be completed in two appointments. During your initial visit, your dentist will numb the area that is to be treated. Then, a small portion of your tooth enamel will be removed to allow the veneer to lay flat against the smile line. Once this is completed, you\u2019ll have an impression taken of your bite, which will be sent to the lab. This is where your customized veneers will be created.<\/p>\n

Arriving for your final visit, your dentist will take your crafted veneers and place them, giving you a flawless smile.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s important to remember that your veneers will be customized to match the shape, size, and color of your nearby teeth, making it impossible for anyone to notice you\u2019ve received treatment.<\/p>\n

What Are the Benefits of Porcelain Veneers?<\/h2>\n

While you may be trying to determine if porcelain veneers are the right treatment option for you, your cosmetic dentist wants you to have all the necessary information to make the right decision. To help, here are a few added benefits of porcelain veneers:<\/p>\n
