In the meantime, here’s what you need to know about porcelain veneers.
Boosts Your Confidence
It’s hard to feel confident about yourself when you don’t want to share your smile with the world. The good news is that our cosmetic dentists offer the veneers procedure, which can improve both the aesthetics of your smile and your confidence.
Whether you’re at a job interview or on a first date, you’ll feel more free to show off your smile with porcelain veneers. A healthy, attractive smile can make all the difference.
Restores Your Smile
Small chips and cracks may not seem like a big deal at first. However, any damage to your enamel can weaken the overall structure of your teeth in the long run. For this reason, we always recommend that you schedule an appointment with one of our dentists if you notice small chips or cracks.
We’re able to place a veneer over the front-facing surface of your tooth, restoring its original strength and appearance. Porcelain veneers are wafer-thin and translucent to match the natural look of your smile. That way, no one will be able to tell the difference between your dental veneers and your natural enamel. Instead, they’ll only see your beautiful smile!
Requires Less Prep Than a Crown
To create space for your dental veneers, we’ll need to remove a thin layer of enamel from the fronts of your teeth. This is much less invasive when compared to prepping a tooth for a crown. During your appointment, we’ll do everything possible to ensure your comfort while you’re in our care.
Lasts for Years
The average lifespan of porcelain veneers is 10 years when you practice good oral hygiene. This means that you’ll be responsible for brushing your teeth twice a day for at least two minutes at a time. You should also floss once a day to remove plaque and food particles caught between teeth.
If our dentists still find a lot of plaque buildup during your next checkup, they may recommend adding a fluoride mouth rinse to your oral hygiene routine. The healthier your smile, the longer your porcelain dental veneers are likely to last.
