Creating Beautiful Porcelain Veneers for Patients in Schenectady, NY

Dental veneers are thin shells of porcelain or composite resin that are custom made to fit over teeth, which provide a natural, attractive look. Typically, porcelain veneers are used to fix chipped, stained, misaligned, worn down, uneven or abnormally spaced teeth and create a durable and pleasing smile. It is important to note that dental veneers are an irreversible treatment, so having them placed is a big decision.

Why Choose Porcelain Dental Veneers?

Ultimately, porcelain veneers offer many benefits and if you're the right candidate to get them, they are one of the more optimal dental solutions. The following are some of the main reasons that porcelain dental veneers are a great decision:

Long lasting – Compared to composite resin veneers that require more maintenance, porcelain veneers are more durable, with the ability to last anywhere from 12-25 years, and will rarely require any maintenance, outside of basic oral hygiene.

Solution to some common dental issues – When you have severe discoloration or malformed/misaligned teeth, porcelain veneers are an option to fix your dental issue. 

Made from a mold of your teeth – If you feel that your teeth are small and/or misaligned, porcelain veneers are an ideal option for you. When you choose this route, the veneers are made from a mold of your teeth then sized and fit proportionately to the other teeth to your mouth. This provides a natural, comfortable feel.

Gum tissue tolerates porcelain better – Many people end up choosing porcelain veneers over composite veneers because gum tissue tolerates the porcelain material better.

When properly cared for, porcelain veneers are a great solution if you are looking for cosmetic enhancement for your teeth. To find out more about dental veneers and whether they are the right choice for you, give Glenville Smiles a call today!
