Porcelain veneers are a form of
cosmetic dentistry. They are great because they allow dentists to transform teeth that may look unattractive, worn out, or have had years of wear and tear. Veneers can make teeth look younger and bring back their natural beauty.
Veneers are thin shells of porcelain that are made to cover up a patient's tooth. The veneer is cemented onto the tooth after the tooth has been prepped. Preparation for veneers involves some minor filing of the tooth's enamel in order to allow it to fit tightly and properly to the existing natural tooth. Veneers look natural and provide a great option when an individual wants to achieve a beautiful smile without looking as though they have had extensive restorations done. In as little as two appointments, porcelain veneers can be made and placed for our patients. They will often last approximately ten years or longer with the proper care and maintenance.
Veneers are great for a variety of situations, including those in which the patient may have broken teeth in the front of their smile, chipped or cracked teeth, or want to cover old fillings that were used in their teeth from previous cavities. Fillings can make it look as though a person has something stuck in-between their teeth when they do not, so this can be a source of contention and embarrassment for many. Porcelain veneers allows us to fix that. Additionally, porcelain veneers can also be used to help with mildly crooked or crowded teeth, spaces, and alignment positioning. We can also address the length and size of a tooth as well by using veneers.

Best dentist experience I've ever had! Everyone is incredibly nice and personable. It's evident that this isn't just work for the employees, but an enjoyable place to be. I was very impressed with how well they communicated with one another and worked diligently to personalize the experience for me and other customers. I wasn't just another mouth to clean, but a person who they wanted to get to know, and I still came out of there with an exceptional cleaning and more knowledge about my dental hygiene than when I came in. I'm so thankful for their wonderful work and service, not to mention the two freshly baked cookies on my way out!
