What are porcelain veneers?
You may not know this, but many Hollywood stars, models, and celebrities have porcelain veneers. Mother Nature did not give all of those people beautiful, perfect teeth! Porcelain veneers are individual, handcrafted porcelain shells designed to fit snugly on the surface of front teeth. Veneers can alter shape, color, size – they close gaps, repair chips, and hide permanent stains. In short, porcelain veneers can give you an entirely new smile.
Why do some people call veneers “instant orthodontics?”
If you’ve avoided wearing metal orthodontic braces, porcelain veneers might be the right choice for you. Minor misalignments and misshapen front teeth can be completely transformed by custom-crafted veneers.
How long does it take to get porcelain veneers?
Usually, patients attend a consultation, then two clinical appointments. At the first clinical visit, the doctor will prepare your teeth, take impressions, and place temporaries. Our reputable dental lab will fabricate your custom porcelain veneers, then you’ll return to our office for permanent placement.
Will veneers stain?
No! Veneers resist stains. The dentist may recommend professional teeth whitening prior to your clinical appointments. Then he can design your veneers to blend with your whitened teeth for a gleaming, beautiful smile.
What’s the first step?
Call our Fort Lee or West New York dental office to schedule a porcelain veneers consultation. You and the dentist will review before-and-after cases and discuss the attributes you find most attractive. After a comprehensive discussion of your preferences, the doctor will design porcelain veneers to deliver your dream smile!
