Porcelain Veneers

Teeth that are chipped, cracked, stained, worn or have open spaces between them can be restored to their original beauty with ultra-thin laminates or veneers made of porcelain. Porcelain veneers are thin shells that are laid onto the teeth and bonded to the surface. While veneers can be made of different materials, porcelain is commonly used because it is durable and provides a beautiful, translucent appearance. Porcelain veneers do not require removing as much of the tooth’s original surface, therefore offering a more conservative alternative to crowns. With porcelain veneers in place patients can expect straighter, whiter and more even looking teeth.

In many cases a no-prep option exists for porcelain veneers, which can give you the beautiful smile you’ve always wanted with no shots, drills or pain! Razor thin veneers are placed on top of your natural teeth and can be used to close spaces between teeth, reshape chipped or worn teeth or whiten discolored smiles. If you are a candidate, your smile makeover can be completed in as few as two appointments.
