Beyond Perfect: The Shift Towards Lifelike Dental Veneers

Do you want a beautiful smile but have aesthetic dental issues holding you back? You’ll be delighted to learn that there are more options than ever for achieving the gorgeous smile you deserve. In the past, cosmetic dental procedures were reserved for people such as very wealthy celebrities, but today, there are options for almost anyone. If you want a natural-looking solution to perfect your front teeth, natural-looking dental veneers may be for you. 

Porcelain Veneers: The Secret to Award-Winning Smiles

Have you ever seen a celebrity and wondered how their smile is so perfect? There’s a good chance they had cosmetic dental work done. Porcelain veneers for front teeth are one of the most popular cosmetic dental procedures because they give you an instantly flawless smile and can camouflage a number of different flaws and imperfections.

Stained Teeth and Much More

Porcelain veneers are the perfect fix if you have yellowed, stained, or discolored teeth. The ultra-thin porcelain shells fit neatly over your teeth, putting unsightly stains out of sight. However, natural-looking veneers are also perfect for fixing the following cosmetic issues:

• Misshapen teeth
• Chipped or cracked teeth
• Worn-down teeth
• Teeth with unusual shapes
• Narrow or short teeth
• Dull and worn-down teeth
• Teeth with gaps between them
• Moderately crooked teeth

How Porcelain Veneers Work

Porcelain veneers are very thin shells made from porcelain. These shells are translucent, so they look natural while also disguising flaws. The porcelain used to create veneers is made from an extremely durable type of glass ceramic. To apply the veneers to your teeth, the dentist has to remove a small amount of your natural dental enamel. This will ensure the veneers adhere strongly to your teeth with the bonding agent. Also, the trimming will make sure your veneers fit flush with your gum line. 

A Long-Lasting Solution for Cosmetic Dental Flaws

Because porcelain is so durable, you can count on your porcelain veneers to last up to 10 years or even longer with proper care. Keep in mind that porcelain veneers are durable, but they can be damaged if you’re not careful. Avoid chewing on hard foods or ice and sticky foods like chewy candy to help them last longer. 

Good Candidates for Porcelain Veneers

Most people who want more beautiful front teeth can benefit from porcelain veneers. While porcelain veneers can help disguise moderately crooked teeth, people with severe malocclusion problems may first need braces or clear aligner therapy to straighten their teeth. Also important is that any issues such as gum disease or tooth decay must be addressed before the veneer process can begin.
