Porcelain Veneers

Veneers are very thin pieces of durable, tooth shaped porcelain that are custom made (for shape and color) by a dental lab. They are bonded onto the front of teeth to create a beautiful and attractive smile.

1. Why you need to do porcelain veneers:
   Crooked, Worn or chipped teeth.
   Misshapen or Missizen teeth.
   Severely discolored or stained teeth.
   Unwanted or uneven spaces.
2. Getting porcelain veneers involve:
   Two visits are required to complete the process with anesthesia. The teeth are prepared lightly, a mold or impression of the teeth is taken and a shade (color) will be chosen by you and the dentist. The second visit, bonding cement is placed between the tooth and veneer and a special light beam is used to harden and set the bond.
