Porcelain veneers are thin, durable, tooth-colored “shells” that are a type of cosmetic dental solution. After being custom-fabricated, they are bonded onto the front of your tooth. Veneers look natural and beautiful for an immediate improvement in the appearance of your smile.
Veneers may be ideal if your teeth are healthy, but stained, gapped, crooked, or chipped. Porcelain veneers can make teeth look:
- Straighter
- More even
- Whiter
- Intact
Porcelain veneers can last for years with proper care. Continue brushing, flossing, and regular professional cleanings and exams.
