Veneers

So a veneer is a porcelain restoration that covers the facial or front side of a tooth structure to give it a more ideal aesthetic appearance. Veneers can come in a few different shapes and sizes, a few different materials, but for the most part, it's just a cosmetic facing on the front of a tooth. If a tooth is misaligned, darkened, cracked, broken, a veneer's a really good option to give it the appearance of a really pretty tooth. Just about anybody's a good candidate for veneers. Depending on what the patient's goals are, what their concerns are, you know, veneers can be a really good option to improve the appearance of their smile. If teeth are misaligned, if there's excessive crowding or excessive spacing, the teeth are discolored, broken, cracked, in any of those situations veneers can be a really good option to improve the appearance of their smile. Of course, with anything there's a lifespan to veneers. But well-done veneers should last, you know, 20, 30, 40 years. Certain patients are better suited for veneers whereas other patients might be better suited to be treated with orthodontics, braces, Invisalign, ClearCorrect, and some patients might require crowns or bridges to improve the smile. But after a consult where we could look at the teeth, look at the bite, really determine if that patient's a really good candidate for veneers, they should last a lifetime.
