Veneers can serve multiple functions for a patient. The most obvious reason for dental veneers is the improvement in a person’s smile, which will deliver more self-esteem and confidence in a patient who is self-conscious. These coverings or “shells” for teeth are available for correction of visible problems with a single tooth, multiple teeth, or even an entire smile redesign. Veneers are an effective solution for many different cosmetic imperfections of a person’s teeth, including staining not resolved with whitening treatments, mild misalignment of teeth, hairline cracks, or gaps in spacing. Once placed by an experienced and qualified provider, a patient with porcelain veneers will be able to enjoy the appearance a properly-aligned smile, reinforcement for teeth with small fractures, and evenness to the length of all the visible teeth. Some patients living with cosmetic misalignment issues may be able to avoid wearing braces, and the inconvenience and cost associated with orthodontic treatment by choosing porcelain dental veneers instead.

Porcelain veneers are designed to custom-fit each patient. During the period they are being created by an outside lab, which is around two weeks, patients will enjoy a test drive of their new look with temporary veneers. Porcelain is the material used for veneers because of its similarity in appearance and strength to natural tooth material, and the ability to blend in as a very natural enhancement to a patient’s smile.
