Most people are not born with a perfect smile. Moreover, as people go about their lives, smiles are impacted by natural wear and tear. Fortunately, in modern times, no one has to live with a smile they dislike.
In the past, it was primarily celebrities who opted for veneers. However, advances in modern dentistry have made porcelain veneers accessible to almost anyone. Dr. Colby Smith and his team at Granite Bay Dentistry are here to help you get the smile you’ve always wanted.
Everything from injuries, decay, genetics, and accidents can affect the brilliance of a naturally beautiful smile. Also, the foods and beverages we enjoy cause a smile to become discolored.
Porcelain veneers are thin layers of porcelain that are custom-made to fit over your natural teeth. They are designed to hide a variety of dental imperfections, such as crooked teeth or gaps in your smile. Once bonded to your teeth, porcelain veneers can give your smile a straighter and more aesthetically pleasing appearance.
Veneers are an excellent solution for these issues that affect the beauty of your smile:
Dr. Smith will examine your teeth, gums, and overall oral health to determine whether or not you are a good candidate for porcelain veneers. If a patient has gum disease or cavities, those issues must be addressed before proceeding with cosmetic dental treatments.
Porcelain veneers look and feel like natural tooth enamel. These thin pieces of porcelain are remarkably durable and will last up to 10 years with proper care. Also, porcelain veneers are colored to match the shade of your natural teeth perfectly. Perhaps most importantly, porcelain veneers are versatile, so Dr. Smith can use them to help you with many different dental issues.
