Porcelain Veneers Effectively Hide Imperfections

At Elite Family Dental in Taylorsville, KY, we offer porcelain veneers as a comprehensive solution for various cosmetic concerns like chips and cracks. Made from durable and natural-looking porcelain material, these prosthetic tooth surfaces effectively hide imperfections. With the help of advanced CEREC® technology, our office can create your veneers in just one visit, instantly improving your smile. In addition to their aesthetic benefits, porcelain veneers are durable and can provide years of advantages for patients who maintain good oral hygiene.

Treatment For Porcelain Veneers

During your initial consultation, our doctors will discuss your desired outcomes and assess whether porcelain veneers are the most suitable option for you. We will collaborate closely with you to develop mockups that provide a preview of how your smile will appear after the treatment. If you are satisfied with the mockups and ready to proceed, we will gently remove a small amount of enamel to accommodate the veneers. Utilizing our advanced CEREC machine, we will then create impressions and fabricate your veneers from a single block of porcelain. This cutting-edge technology enables you to receive your veneers in just one visit. Once your new restoration is prepared, we will securely bond the veneers to the front surfaces of your teeth, resulting in a seamless, natural-looking smile that perfectly matches the color and texture of your natural teeth.

Could I Be Considered As A Candidate For Veneers?

Porcelain veneers are an excellent solution for repairing small cracks or chips in teeth and enhancing the appearance of small teeth that do not match the rest of your smile. They can greatly improve your dental aesthetics and complement your facial features. Additionally, if you have intrinsic stains that cannot be removed with whitening treatments, veneers can be a viable option.

However, it is important to note that veneers are primarily used for cosmetic purposes and are not intended to address significant orthodontic issues, decay, or tooth loss. Prior to getting veneers, it is crucial to ensure that your teeth are strong enough to support them. Our office will conduct a comprehensive oral health evaluation to determine if you are a suitable candidate for veneers. If any existing oral health issues are identified, they will need to be treated before commencing the veneer treatment.

Advantages Of Veneers

Choosing veneers as a dental treatment not only gives people a natural and durable solution, but also comes with many benefits. These veneers are made with advanced materials that closely resemble real teeth, including their transparency and color. By achieving the smile they want, patients are likely to experience an increase in their self-confidence. A study by the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) found that individuals who had porcelain veneer treatment reported a significant improvement in their confidence levels and overall quality of life.
  • DURABLE
    Porcelain veneers are made from durable and stain-resistant porcelain material. They do not absorb stains, ensuring a long-lasting and vibrant smile. Consider teeth whitening treatments for an even brighter appearance.
  • COLOR MATCHING
    To achieve color matching, it is common for patients to undergo teeth whitening before getting veneers. This helps ensure that the veneers blend seamlessly with the surrounding teeth, which have been enhanced to a dazzling new shade.
  • LONG TERM
    Veneers have a long-term durability, with an average lifespan of around 10 years when properly maintained.
