Unhappy with your appearance, you struggle to\nfind a solution that will produce the transformative look you desire. After\ndoing your research, you discover that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carrollbutlerdds.com\/cosmetic-dentistry.html\">porcelain\nveneers<\/a> may just be the right option for you. Read on to learn more about\nthese unique restorations and how they can help you get ready to show off a new\nand improved smile this summer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Are Porcelain Veneers?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are looking to leave behind the stains,\ndiscoloration, chips, cracks, misshapen and gapped teeth, and minor misalignments,\nveneers may just give you the look you truly desire. These thin sheaths of\nporcelain are custom-made to fit over the surface of your teeth. Hiding a\nvariety of imperfections, veneers can change the size, shape, and color of your\nsmile, and you can choose to treat all your teeth or only those most visible.\nThe choice is yours. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Are the Benefits of Veneers?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As with any other form of cosmetic dentistry, many great\nbenefits come with veneers. Patients who choose to move forward with this type\nof treatment must be aware that it is permanent, so there is no turning back\nonce the process begins. However, because it cannot be reversed, patients with\nveneers can expect a healthier, more vibrant appearance that doesn\u2019t require\nthe same frequency of replacement as other solutions (i.e., dental bonding,\nteeth whitening touch-ups).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some of the most common benefits you can expect to receive\nwhen choosing veneers include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>They are capable of lasting between 10-15 years\nif properly cared for and maintained<\/li><li>They are extremely versatile at hiding all types\nof smile imperfections<\/li><li>They blend in beautifully with the rest of your\nsmile, making it nearly impossible for anyone to tell the difference between\nyour real teeth and your veneers<\/li><li>They only require 2 visits to your dentist\u2019s\noffice to complete treatment<\/li><li>They are stain-resistant, making them less\npenetrable than traditional tooth enamel<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Who is a Qualified Candidate for Veneers?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Before you can begin the process of receiving veneers, you\u2019ll\nneed to schedule a consultation with your cosmetic dentist. During this visit,\nthey will discuss your smile goals and determine if veneers are the right\nsolution for your needs. Sometimes, if a gap or alignment is too severe,\northodontics will need to be recommended. Also, if you\u2019re looking to do more\nthan just enhance your aesthetics, a metal-free restoration may be a better\nsolution, especially if you need help to address severe tooth decay or damage. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are tired of living with teeth that appear dull,\ngray, yellow, or are worn down, there is a good chance you will be eligible for\nveneers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When talking to your dentist, make sure to explain the\ntimeline you are looking to meet, as this will also be a deciding factor as to whether\nveneers are even possible. If so, you can be well on your way to being the envy\nof all your friends when you show them your new smile this summer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>About the Author <br>\n<\/strong>Dr. Carroll Butler has more than 25 years of experience helping patients\nachieve their smile goals.
