Sciota, Pennsylvania
Looking to improve the appearance of teeth that are chipped, crooked, or uneven? Your cosmetic dentist in Sciota can correct these and other aesthetic flaws by installing beautiful porcelain veneers. A skilled cosmetic dentist places veneers on the front of the tooth or teeth that are being treated. Quiet Valley Dental works with veneers made of dental porcelain – a beautiful and durable material that possesses a similar translucency to natural tooth enamel. Dental porcelain is a high-quality material but that quality comes with a significant financial price. Today on the blog, we take a look at four reasons we think veneers are worth the cost.
Veneers are versatile
Veneers can simultaneously address a variety of different cosmetic issues, such as:
- Teeth that are stained or discolored, especially those that have not responded well to whitening treatments
- Teeth that have small chips, cracks or fractures
- Concealing a small gap between two teeth
- Lengthening a tooth that appears too short or small
- To resolve the appearance of minor crookedness.
Veneers look great
Our veneers are made of the same dental porcelain we use in other restorations, such as our dental crowns. This porcelain is resistant to surface stains and can be color-matched to the same shade as your other healthy natural teeth. Once a porcelain veneer is installed, the treated tooth or teeth appear normal, natural and healthy.
The veneer process is easy and convenient
Receiving a veneer means having a small portion of the tooth structure, creating a smooth surface so that the veneer can make a flush bond when it is attached. Digital impressions are captured of the tooth or teeth being treated and a temporary restoration is installed. You return to our dental office in Sciota approximately two weeks later to receive your permanent veneers.
Veneers are made to last
Veneers are affixed permanently to your teeth. Cleaning them is the same as brushing and flossing your teeth. And with good oral hygiene, your veneers can last 10 to 15 years if not longer. That relative permanence makes veneers a fine option for patients who want a whiter smile without having to receive repeat whitening treatments. Even a professional whitening procedure has a limited lifespan while veneers can brighten your smile such as dramatically, if not moreso, and that shade will persist for years with proper care.
