If you are tired of feeling insecure about your less than attractive teeth, you can get the smile of your dreams with porcelain veneers in Plano. Although cosmetic dentistry is often considered to only be for the elite, people from all walks of life are now turning to it to improve how their teeth look. Among the most preferred treatments are porcelain veneers. Using a simple and minimally invasive procedure, you will achieve drastic results that will last.
Transform Your Smile
Porcelain veneers are quite versatile. By attaching the thin custom-made shells to the front surfaces of the teeth, they can be used to cover an array of cosmetic concerns. Often, those who have severe tooth discoloration that will not respond to traditional whitening treatments choose veneers to get a brighter smile.
They can also be used to improve the size, shape, and proportion of the teeth. This makes them perfect for covering chips and cracks while making shorter than average teeth appear longer. In some cases, they can even be used as an alternative to braces by making your teeth look straighter. They allow you to close gaps without having to spend months wearing braces.
Benefit from a Minimally Invasive Solution
When compared to veneers of the past, porcelain has become the preferred material because it allows the veneers to be thinner. As a result, less of the tooth’s structure is removed during the bonding process. This allows the procedure to be minimally invasive. Not to mention, porcelain closely mimics the appearance of enamel, so you will achieve natural looking results.
Get Results Quickly
With porcelain veneers, you can get the results you want in as little as two appointments. After your initial consultation, your first appointment will involve cleaning and preparing your teeth, which includes removing a small amount of enamel. This allows the veneers to sit flush. Impressions and images are taken to create your veneers to match your exact specifications in a dental lab. While you wait, temporary ones will be attached. In about two weeks, you will return for your second appointment to have your final ones bonded in place.
Benefit from Long-Term Results
With the right aftercare, your new smile can last for about 10 years before needing to be replaced. When brushing your teeth, it is best to use nonabrasive products. While the veneers are strong and durable, they can break. As a result, it is best to avoid using your teeth as tools, like when opening packages. In addition, to not bite into overly hard foods, like ice.
