If you are considering veneers, you need to know the facts. These are just a few frequently asked questions and answers about veneers:

What are veneers?

Dental veneers are thin sheaths that are cemented onto the front surfaces of your teeth. They are typically created out of porcelain, which is light-reflective and looks just like natural tooth enamel.

What are veneers used for?

Dental veneers can be used to cover up both minor and major flaws, imperfections, and tooth damage. They are a perfect solution to hide:

• Chips and tooth wear from bad habits or aging
• Fracture lines and cracks from dental trauma
• Broken tooth structure from dental trauma
• Blotchy, uneven enamel from genetics or medications
• Stains and discolorations from tobacco use or coffee

In some cases, veneers can also camouflage tooth positioning and alignment problems including:

• Closing small gaps between your teeth
• Making rotated teeth appear straighter
• Minimizing the appearance of tooth overlap

What can I expect from veneers?

Veneers can give you a lifetime of beautiful smiles by providing benefits like these:

• Natural beauty because porcelain looks just like natural tooth enamel
• Conservative treatment because little to no tooth surface is removed
• Quick results because veneer treatment takes only 2 to 3 appointments
