Dental veneers are actually thin laminated substances
that bond to your teeth to provide you the great smile you want. Not only can these laminations improve the
overall appearance of your smile, they can also improve the structure, strength
and straightness of your teeth. Teeth veneers, or dental veneers, are most
commonly referred to as porcelain veneers because they are mostly composed of
porcelain. They can also be created of
resin or a combination of both porcelain and resin. Resin veneers are thinner and do not require
as much enamel removal as porcelain veneers, but they do not last as long. These tooth-colored shells can change the
shape, color, size and length of your teeth to radiate your smile. This
cosmetic dentistry procedure takes several trips to your Charlotte
dentist. First, you will go over a
diagnosis and treatment plan to discuss your individual concerns and what you
wish to see in your smile. Depending on
your issues, the dentist may take x-rays and impressions to see if porcelain
veneers are the right solution for you. Then
your teeth or tooth will be prepared for your porcelain veneer. The final step
would be bonding of these dental veneers by your cosmetic dentist.
