Pearly white teeth are beautiful and allow people to smile confidently. Drs. Mitchell Sabbagh, Karen Erani, and Suellan Yao provide patients with porcelain veneers to restore your smile at Aesthetic Dentistry of New York in New York, NY.
What are porcelain veneers?
Veneers are a fantastic way to reinvent your smile. They improve the color and shape of teeth, with the added advantage of skipping costly orthodontics. Porcelain veneers fix a variety of issues: broken or chipped teeth, permanently stained teeth, or misshapen teeth.
The thin lab-made porcelain restorations are cemented onto the front surfaces of teeth. The thin durable structure contours teeth during at least two appointments at your dentist's New York office.
How are veneers installed by your New York dentist?
- Your doctor examines your teeth and assesses whether veneers are right for you.
- Then he/she fixes underlying issues, like cavities.
- Next, your dentist takes an impression of your teeth and sends them to a lab.
- When veneers finally arrive, your dentist removes some enamel from the surface of your teeth then cement the veneers.
Removing enamel is an irreversible process that prevents teeth from protruding. Veneers feel smooth, even, and properly aligned.
What are the advantages of porcelain veneers?
There are many advantages to getting veneers placed by your New York dentist, like the fact that your natural tooth structure is preserved and help your smile look natural. Veneers mask permanent discoloration caused by tea, coffee, and certain foods.
They also repair fractured or chipped teeth, cover small gaps/spaces between the teeth, and correct misaligned or crooked teeth. Results last longer than teeth whitening, are stain-resistant, and have a long life expectancy.
Porcelain veneers are faster to get and more economically-friendly than braces. They straighten smiles, close spaces, reshape teeth, and correct minor misalignments.
