Dental Veneers
|
• | Teeth with intrinsic stains that do not respond to bleaching treatments. |
• | Worn or chipped teeth. |
• | Misshapen or misaligned teeth. |
• | Uneven gaps between the front teeth. |
• | Veneers offer a conservative and non-invasive approach to changing your tooth’s shape and color and do not require erosion of large amounts of enamel, as is needed for crown placement. |
• | They are very natural-looking and mimic the light-reflecting properties of enamel. |
• | They are quite strong and durable. |
• | Veneers are made of porcelain which is a more stain-resistant material than bonding material. |
• | A procedure to get veneers is irreversible since enamel needs to be removed from your tooth surface. As a result, your tooth will always need to be protected with restorative work. |
• | Veneers are custom-fitted and hence are more expensive than dental bonding. |
• | Although rare, veneers can crack or fall off. To avoid this, do not chew on pencils and ice and do not bite your fingernails. |
• | People who clench their teeth or who suffer from bruxism are not good candidates for veneers. |
• | Teeth with veneers can still suffer from decay. If that happens, the entire tooth may need to be covered with a dental crown. |
