What are Dental Porcelain Veneers?
Veneers are one of the most affective cosmetic dental treatments available in dentistry today to give you the smile you have always dreamed of.
Porcelain veneers, also referred to as dental veneers or dental porcelain laminates, are wafer-thin shells of porcelain that are bonded onto the front side of teeth to create a cosmetic enhancemet to a tooth.
Veneers typically take 2 visits to complete. At the first visit the teeth are smoothed and shaped to allow for a proper fit of the final veneers. Impressions are taken to fabricate models on which the veneers are made. At the end of the first visit you will leave wearing temporary veneers. These can be quite cosmetic and are used to ensure that these fit properly. This allows you a chance to evaluate and provide your insight on shapes and color. After about 3 weeks you return to have the custom veneers bonded into place.
Benefits of Porcelain Veneers?

- Long lasting:
Porcelain veneers can last many years with good sense and proper hygiene. Regular visits to the dentists are always a good idea for proper maintained and to help ensure a long lasting result.
Veneers Are Used To
- Lengthen or shorten teeth
- Close spaces
- Whiten your smile
- Correct overlapped/rotated teeth
- Restore chipped or fractured edges
- Replace large white fillings
- Reface overly large or small teeth
When veneers are performed by an experienced dentist, the symmetry, color, and vibrance are so natural that an untrained eye would never know the difference between natural teeth and veneers. Porcelain veneers are so smooth and glazed on the surface that they do not stain and are going to feel the same as your natural teeth.
