Porcelain Veneers Watertown MA

What are porcelain veneers?

Porcelain veneers are thin custom made shells of ceramic bonded to teeth. They offer superb esthetics as they are made from high quality dental ceramic. The material closely resembles tooth enamel in terms of color and translucency, providing a natural and beautiful appearance. Stain resistance is outstanding as dental ceramic is impermeable. Materials and technology have improved dramatically in the past few years, making porcelain veneers the gold standard in cosmetic dentistry today. 

Below are a few examples of life changing smile makeovers. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

What are the benefits of porcelain veneers?

Veneers can effectively address a variety of aesthetic issues, such as:

1  Discoloration: Teeth that are severely stained or discolored and don’t respond well to whitening treatments can be covered with veneers to achieve a brighter, uniform color.

2  Chipped or worn teeth: Veneers can restore the shape and size of chipped or worn teeth, providing an attractive smile which is anatomically perfect. 

3  Gaps and spacing: Both can be easily corrected with veneers. 

4  Misalignment: In most cases, veneers can be used as an alternative to orthodontic treatment for individuals with mildly misaligned teeth.

Veneers are a wonderful option for teeth which have deteriorated due to decay, numerous fillings or abrasion. With modern bonding technology a veneer can be fabricated and cemented even if there is minimal remaining tooth structure, replacing the entire tooth beautifully.
