Porcelain Veneers Arizona

A porcelain veneer is a thin piece of porcelain that is placed over the surface of a tooth, often used to protect a damaged tooth surface, or improve the aesthetics of the tooth. A porcelain veneer is fabricated in a dental lab by a dental technician then later bonded to the tooth using a transparent or opaque resin cement.

Advantages of Porcelain Veneers Arizona

There are many advantages of using a veneer to restore a tooth. Great aesthetics can be obtained without extensive tooth preparation. A reduction of only around 0.5mm of the tooth is required for a porcelain veneer to be placed on a labial tooth surface. Since it can be difficult to match the shade of one individual veneer to the remaining natural teeth, there is often the tendency to place several veneers.

Veneers can cosmetically resurface teeth to make them appear more straight, whiter, and possess a more aesthetically pleasing alignment. They are a great, quick way to improve the appearance of malposed teeth without having to extensive dental care or orthodontics. However, the severity of malposition of teeth may require orthodontics such as braces, or Invisalign combined with veneers in order to be enough to correct aesthetic imbalance and create your ideal smile.
