What is a Veneer and Why You Might Need One

November 28, 2018/0 Comments/in Dental Health /by admin

Veneers are a viable option that many dentists recommend to their patients instead of simply having a crown. Considered to be a standard dental procedure that occurs right there in the office, veneers cover the exterior of your natural teeth with composite resin or porcelain material. Your dentist might recommend that you have a veneer if one or more of your visible teeth are damaged and/or discolored.

Crowns or Veneers: What’s the Difference?

Veneers are a permanent solution that many dental professionals turn to as an alternative to crowns. With both procedures, your dentist will likely need to remove some material from your healthy teeth in order to properly fit and apply them. When it comes to veneers, though, less material is taken away which can lead to a more comfortable overall experience for you.

Reasons Why Your Dentist Might Recommend Veneers

Today, the dental industry is continuously coming up with new and custom solutions for a variety of issues that face people in regards to their teeth. If you have teeth that are not in good general health, a veneer could help prevent further damage while also making your smile appear more natural and beautiful.

Another reason why your dentist might recommend veneers is if you have teeth that already have large fillings but that are also damaged or discolored. If your teeth are slightly crooked — but not so much so that you qualify for braces — then your dentist might recommend veneers to help them look evener.

Spaces in between teeth can look cute on small children, but they can have the opposite effect on adults. Veneers can effortlessly close these gaps while also looking completely natural. A fractured tooth doesn’t have to mean that you’ll lose it. In some cases, your dentist could apply a veneer and save your tooth.
