Porcelain Veneers

Porcelain veneers are one of the most popular cosmetic dentistry procedures that are routinely used for teeth that are discolored, worn, chipped, or misaligned. Evolving from the long-standing cosmetic dental procedure of bonding, porcelain veneers utilize bonding techniques to attach a thin sheet of porcelain to a tooth. Porcelain veneers predominantly use porcelain material that gives the veneers a natural, tooth-like appearance.

The recommendation of a qualified dentist about whether or not porcelain veneers are the best option for you is important, as porcelain veneers may not be the best treatment to your particular situation. Dental bonding and porcelain crowns are alternatives to porcelain veneers that may be the best solution depending on the scenario. Dental bonding is a process in which a tooth-colored resin material that is usually plastic is bonded to a tooth as a way to restore an individual’s smile. Porcelain crowns are placed over a tooth where it is covers the visible portion of a tooth where it restores the shape, size, strength, and appearance of the affected tooth. In this situation, porcelain veneers are an excellent option for individuals that want to change the shape of their teeth more than bonding possibly can but not to the point of change that porcelain crowns provide.

Porcelain veneers usually require three visits to a qualified dentist and they usually last 15 years or more. In the first visit, an exam is conducted and a discussion with the dentist will take place in which the patient is informed of the advantages and limitations of porcelain veneers. In the second visit to the dentist, the tooth will be prepared for fitting with the porcelain veneer. Tooth enamel is removed and an impression is made of one’s teeth, which will provide the basis for how the veneers will be made. In the third dentist visit, the porcelain veneers will be bonded to the teeth with bonding cement.
