Key Benefits of Porcelain Veneers for a Natural-Looking Smile
Are you considering porcelain veneers to repair your damaged or discolored teeth? Veneers are a popular solution to minor dental issues, made from either porcelain or composite resin. Porcelain is the better option of the two materials, producing a more natural look. Veneers are manufactured and implanted quickly, durable, easy to care for, and create a natural-looking smile without damaging your tooth’s natural enamel. Once you decide to implant porcelain veneers after consultation with Dr. Jennifer Nation at Brookside Smiles Dentistry, only two appointments are needed–one to make the veneers and one to apply them. Why consider porcelain veneers? Here are some of the key benefits.
- Stain Resistant – Porcelain is naturally stain resistant, ensuring you’ll have a healthier, brighter-looking smile for longer. Because porcelain veneers are glazed, they are a non-porous surface, so stains have no place to settle, leaving you with a brighter, whiter smile longer.
- Low Maintenance – Porcelain veneers are easy to care for and require no ongoing maintenance. Once implanted, you need no repeat visits to the dentist, just good dental hygiene. Porcelain veneers can last anywhere between seven and fifteen years.
- Durable and Less Damaging – Unlike crowns, veneers require minimal shaping of the teeth to apply, which preserves more of your tooth’s enamel, helping keep the tooth stronger. In fact, only a thin layer of enamel must be removed to fit veneers. Plus, veneers are stronger than crowns and look more natural.
- A Natural-Looking Smile – Porcelain veneers reflect light similarly to your natural enamel teeth, better than composite resin veneers. Porcelain veneers are colored and can cover even particularly dark teeth, ensuring a bright smile. Veneers can also repair minor issues like:
- Gaps Between Teeth
- Chipped Teeth
- Cracked Teeth
- Broken Teeth
- Discolored Teeth
- Malformed Teeth
