Dental veneers are a very popular cosmetic dentistry option. They are thin strips that are bonded to the teeth in order to cover cosmetic flaws. Such flaws include stains, crooked teeth, gaps, and crowding, among others.
There are different types of veneers, all made of different material. One of the more popular options is porcelain, which is used often in dentistry. Porcelain is both strong and durable, making it ideal to protect the teeth. It also reflects light in the same way that natural dental enamel does, making veneer coverings look like normal teeth. Porcelain also resists stains, making veneers look better longer Composite resin is also a common material used for veneers. Dentists can blend shades of the resin to match that of the teeth, so the smile does not look two-toned. Composite resin also supports the natural tooth structure, which prevents breakage and insulates the teeth from intense pressure changes.
Patients should be aware that getting veneers does require some alteration to the teeth. Our Beverly Hills veneers dentist will remove some of the enamel on the surfaces of the teeth in order to place the veneers and ensure that the teeth do not look too big.
