However, for those seeking a complete smile makeover, custom porcelain veneers are often the best solution.

Porcelain veneers are thin, custom-made shells of tooth-colored porcelain that are designed to cover the front surface of teeth. They are ideal for improving the appearance of teeth that are stained, chipped, misaligned, or have other imperfections. The veneers are carefully bonded to your teeth, creating a natural and enhanced look. Porcelain is chosen for its ability to closely mimic the appearance of natural tooth enamel, making it a durable and aesthetically pleasing option. Often, you can achieve a completely transformed smile in just a few appointments.

The Porcelain Veneer Procedure

The actual treatment usually involves only two visits. The number of pre-operative visits, to work out details to insure predictable results, depends on the complexity of your situation and the changes you desire. There usually is also a follow up visit or two for final adjustments and polishing your dental veneers, and to review instructions for care of your new porcelain veneers to insure they last years and years.

How Long Do Veneers Last?

As we mentioned, porcelain veneers are very durable. Although we call them “porcelain,” they’re actually made of advanced ceramics that are described as porcelain because they are white and translucent like porcelain. But modern materials mean porcelain veneers can be ten times as strong as your teeth enamel or more.

Studies show that more than 95% of them remain intact and in place after 11 years. when properly fitting by a skilled cosmetic dentist.
