At Frantz Dental, we provide a variety of dental treatments that promote the health of your smile. While cosmetic dental treatments typically focus on the aesthetics of your teeth, there is one option that addresses an array of visual concerns. Porcelain veneers, a well-known cosmetic service, offer a variety of benefits for those seeking a brand new smile.
A Whiter, Brighter Smile
Yellow teeth are a typical discoloration that can be treated with over-the-counter or professional whitening treatments. However, there are deep stains that bleaching products cannot lift. Grey toned stains, for example, may be caused by untreated dental trauma. These stains can also occur due to taking certain medications. Veneers are the perfect treatment for those who need to conceal permanent stains. They are made from porcelain, a material which mimics the sheen and color of a healthy tooth and can be tailored to the patient’s specifications.
Reshape Teeth
Whether due to incessant grinding or their natural structure, your teeth may be misshapen or smaller than you’d like. Porcelain veneers can recreate the shape of your teeth. Once they have been prepared with slight alteration, the veneers are bonded to them. If you have major chipping, but no other decay, veneers restore the tooth to its natural appearance.
Uniform Smile without Braces
Traditional treatment for an uneven smile alignment would be metal braces or clear aligners. However, if you only have minor issues such as gaps or uneven teeth, porcelain veneers can create a brand new smile without the need for orthodontics. Lab-fabricated with an extensive shade choice process, you can have the new smile you’ve always wanted.
Once the veneers are bonded to your teeth, you will be able to brush and floss normally. Prevention will go a long way toward helping you avoid issues that affect your smile, such as light stains and the buildup of harmful bacteria. And while veneers are a permanent solution, you should take care of them as you would your normal teeth by avoiding hard to chew foods.
