Maybe you’ve always wanted dazzling white teeth. Or maybe your teeth have yellowed as you’ve aged. Or perhaps you’re not happy with stubborn teeth stains as a result of drinking coffee, tea, wine or cola.
Porcelain Veneers are another cosmetic dentistry option for better looking teeth!
Dental veneers are thin, custom-made shells of tooth-colored materials designed to cover the front surface of teeth to improve the appearance of your smile. Dental veneers can be made from porcelain or from resin composite materials. Porcelain veneers resist stains better than resin veneers and better mimic the light reflecting properties of natural teeth. You will need to discuss the best choice of veneer material for you with your dentist.
