Veneers can help fix minor defects in your teeth

When it comes to the appearance of your teeth, even mild cosmetic concerns can cause you great displeasure.

The slightest gaps or misalignment can prevent you from feeling fully comfortable with your smile. Teeth that don’t respond to whitening treatments can leave you feeling frustrated and disappointed.

But you don’t have to feel this way forever. For these minor cosmetic changes, veneers are an ideal option to improve the look of your smile quickly.

Benefits of Veneers

Veneers are thin porcelain covers that are bonded to your natural teeth to alter their shape, size, or color. They are a permanent solution to cosmetic concerns that keep you from being happy with the appearance of your teeth.

Veneers are ideal for improving the look of teeth that are:

• Permanently stained
• Slightly misaligned
• Chipped or cracked
• Worn down or too short
• Jagged or ridged

Veneer Procedure

It typically takes about 3 appointments to complete treatment planning, shaping and coloring your new veneers, and permanently bonding them to your teeth.

Once the process is complete, you should be able to eat and drink most anything you want. You'll want to be careful with foods that are very hard, and avoid habits such as chewing on nails or pens--veneers are quite strong, but it's possible for them to chip with excessive wear.

You may feel some soreness immediately following the procedure, but once the initial discomfort fades your veneers will feel completely comfortable and natural--and so will you as you proudly show off your new smile every chance you get.
