Porcelain Veneers
Porcelain veneers are probably the most esthetic means of creating a more pleasing and beautiful smile.
Porcelain veneers require a minimal amount of tooth reduction (approximately .5 mm - 1mm) and are, therefore, a more conservative restoration than a crown. Porcelain veneers allow us to alter tooth position, shape, size and color. They are not the only alternative for aesthetic improvements, but are truly a remarkable restoration when they are the treatment of choice.
What is a Porcelain Veneer?
It's a porcelain laminate (a thin layer of porcelain) that is adhered to the front surface of the tooth. Porcelain veneers are a quick way to correct tooth color, shape and alignment. Porcelain veneers can add tooth length, width, color and aesthetic shape. Porcelain veneers can reshape your smile in as little as two appointments. The laboratory time required for the fabrication of a Porcelain Veneer is approximately two weeks. Beautiful temporaries are provided during the laboratory fabrication of the permanent Porcelain Veneers.
Once the permanent porcelain veneers are placed they become very strong and will resist most of the forces placed upon them by a normal diet.
