Veneers allow you to correct cosmetic concerns without removing a lot of healthy tooth material.
They can be used to address a range of concerns, including:
- Discolored teeth
- Chipped teeth
- Small gaps between teeth
- Tooth size
- Visible fillings
- Damaged enamel, as sometimes happens after removing braces
A veneer is a thin shell of porcelain or ceramic material that is custom built to fit your smile. To ensure they fit, only a very small amount of tooth enamel needs to be removed, no more than the width of a hair. Once this is done, impressions are taken to make sure your veneers will fit precisely with your teeth.
