What are dental veneers?
Dental veneers are thin facings typically applied to the tooth’s surface to enhance natural charm and create a dazzling smile. They are an effective solution for discolorations or irregular alignments. Serving as a prosthetic appliance, veneers protect the tooth’s surface from harm and rejuvenate broken or discolored teeth, leading to a radiant and striking smile. If you have smaller teeth causing noticeable gaps, which are hard to address with orthodontics, veneers offer an aesthetically pleasing solution. If you are considering this treatment, talking to Dr. Cheng Zhu of Pleasant Hill Dental in Pleasant Hill, California, is the first step in deciding if this treatment is right for you. Let’s look at a few frequently asked questions about this cosmetic treatment.
What can porcelain veneers address?
If you are dealing with dental concerns such as discoloration, misaligned teeth, cracks, enamel wear, or simply unappealing teeth, regain your self-assurance through cosmetic dentistry to give you a smile transformation. This popular approach enhances your smile and addresses various oral issues. Consulting with our team is key to understanding if porcelain veneers are right for you and which type suits your unique needs.
What are the different types of veneers?
- Composite veneers: Composite veneers, also known as direct veneers, are made of tooth-colored composite resin. They are more affordable than porcelain veneers and can be placed in just one visit.
- Porcelain veneers: Porcelain veneers are custom-made thin shells bonded to your teeth’ front surface. They provide a natural and durable solution for improving the appearance of your smile. However, they require multiple visits to the dentist’s office.
- Instant/reversible veneers: Our instant and reversible veneers are ultra-thin porcelain veneers that do not require any preparation or removal of tooth structure before placement. They offer a minimally invasive approach to achieving a beautiful smile, which can be removed in the future if the patient desires.
