Cosmetic Dentistry in South Florida: Porcelain Veneers
Many celebrities have achieved their natural-looking perfect smiles with the help of cosmetic dentistry. Thanks to recent advances in cosmetic dentistry, you can also get this look without years of uncomfortable metal braces. Porcelain veneers allow patients to fix gapped teeth, crooked teeth, and discolored teeth in just a few trips to the dentist. You'll leave the dentist's chair with the straight, white smile you've always wanted.
Porcelain veneers are known by several popular brand names, including Lumineers. Porcelain veneers are thin, wafer-like pieces of ceramic porcelain that are crafted to fit your teeth. Because each veneer is uniquely made for you, they require at least two appointments with your dentist--one for the dentist to create a mold of your teeth that the veneers will be made for, and one for the dentist to set your veneers in place.
When applied to your front teeth, veneers can instantly improve the cosmetic appearance of your whole mouth, covering any imperfections. Veneers can also correct the appearance of "gummy smiles" by elongating your teeth. Porcelain veneers can have structural advantages as well, strengthening teeth that have been chipped or slightly cracked. These veneers are an alternative to traditional porcelain or composite crowns.
Unlike older crowns, which can discolor around your gum line and which often do not have a natural appearance, porcelain veneers look and feel like your natural teeth. Their thin shape allows them to reflect, rather than absorb light. Porcelain veneers also keep their beautiful appearance. Whereas many crowns stain, porcelain veneers are stain-free, giving you a smile to love for years to come.
Because the application of porcelain veneers does not require your teeth to be drilled, many find that the process is relatively "pain-free" dentistry in comparison to years spent in traditional metal braces. Veneers also require less maintenance than braces. Rather than scheduling monthly adjustments, you have finished the process in just a few visits to your cosmetic dentist.
