In Clearwater and Dunedin, FL cosmetic dentistry has helped patients enhance their smiles for decades and dental veneers have become one of the most popular dental products in the last 20 years or so. They not only allow patients to easily have a clearer, straighter smile, they are easy to replace when worn down and can be put with a minimal to no discomfort.
What Are Porcelain Veneers?
Porcelain Veneers are essentially decorative surface coverings for the teeth that accommodate the mouth of the patient and provide protection while improving the beauty of the smile of that patient. They are often used by patients with marginally off-color teeth or who wish to straighten a smile without the long process offered by orthodontics.
Dental Veneers are not permanent. They do occasionally need to be replaced as they wear out. Veneers made from more robust materials will last longer, but veneer work is not permanent.
Advantages to Porcelain Veneers
Porcelain is incredibly durable and capable of looking like natural teeth. It’s also been in use for a long time. As a result, dental veneers made from the substance are:
- Durable
- Long-lasting
- Natural-looking
- Accessibly priced
The Veneer Process
Before your fitting, your mouth is carefully measured, allowing the veneers to be made for a perfect match. Dr. Matthew R. Burton will attach the veneers to the teeth , forming a semi-permanent attachment that will hold until the veneers get worn down enough for you to consider removing them.
Well-cared for dental veneers will last years and you will get a summary on their appearance and condition at your routine cleaning which will help you foresee if you need to upgrade.
