Veneers

There are many ways to improve your smile. For patients with discolored or abnormally shaped teeth, a veneer is one option available for a better smile. Veneers can be used to change the color, shape, size, or length of teeth. Depending on patient preference and budget, the veneer is also available in different materials.

A veneer is color-matched to the natural teeth and looks like a real tooth. Once manufactured, the veneer is placed over a tooth or teeth to cover chips, worn teeth, stains, or gaps between teeth. Veneers are sometimes chosen because placing them requires less tooth enamel removal than placing a cap or crown.

Porcelain veneers are harder to stain, strong, and last a long time.

Composite resin veneers are tooth-colored material that is bonded directly onto the tooth. It can be applied in fewer office visits and also takes less tooth enamel removal than caps or crowns. While composite resin veneers are not as strong as porcelain ones, they provide a less expensive option and are also easier to fix if they get damaged.
