What are porcelain veneers?
Porcelain is the primary material used in the creation of most veneers, which is why dental veneers are commonly called porcelain veneers. A veneer is a covering that is bonded to front facing surface of the tooth restoring it to its original shape and size. A veneer is a good option for teeth that cannot be restored with fillings, but that do not qualify for full coverage crowns.
What are the benefits of porcelain veneers?
Veneers are able to fix common problems that keep patients from having a beautiful smile. They are also highly resistant to stain, and can last for many years, if well taken care of. Some of the main reasons for veneers are listed below:
Developmentally misshapen teeth
Cosmetic enhancement.
Discolored teeth.
Porcelain veneers are very thin sheets of highly esthetic ceramic that are chemically bonded to the tooth structure. After very precise preparation of the teeth, a intraoral scan is taken and the veneers are digitally created and 3D printed to the specifications decided upon by Dr. Hagerty and the patient. After two weeks, the patient returns for cementing of the veneers into place, at which point very detailed instructions for how to care for your new veneers will be reviewed.
