Treasured Smiles Adult and Cosmetic Dentistry strives to offer comprehensive solutions tailored to enhance both the aesthetics and functionality of your smile, ensuring your dental health and satisfaction are our top priorities.
Discover the Magic of Porcelain Veneers
First off, what exactly are porcelain veneers? Porcelain veneers are “shells” that are usually attached to your front teeth. They’re extremely thin and semi-translucent, allowing for a natural-looking appearance and are an attractive alternative for usually painful and intense dental procedures. Veneers are custom-crafted from an exact mold of your teeth, ensuring unparalleled accuracy and a remarkably natural appearance. Lasting from 10-15 years on average, porcelain veneers are very durable and long-lasting with the proper care. This is exactly why we recommend this service to our patients who are looking for a simple and pain-free treatment to bring out their radiant smiles.
This service is ideal for patients who see imperfections in their teeth and want to reach full confidence in their smile. Whether it’s discoloration or misshapen teeth, porcelain veneers are the perfect option for you. Below is a list of every problem porcelain veneers can solve:
- Gaps between teeth
- Broken and/or chipped teeth
- Stains or discoloration
- Crooked and/or misshapen teeth
Not only are veneers great for aesthetic fixes, but it can also help you avoid more serious orthodontic treatment. Making this process as easy as possible for you, we like to get our patients in-and-out with their new veneers in just two office visits. We pride ourselves on giving our patients confidence in their new smiles with the simplest and most efficient processes available! This is exactly why we prioritize porcelain veneers as a viable option for a wide range of patients.
Other Tailored Solutions To Get Your Perfect Smile
Although porcelain veneers are a great option for cosmetic issues, this treatment requires a strong enamel and good oral hygiene. If this isn’t you, don’t worry! Our team of professionals are highly trained on a variety of treatments – even ones that strengthen weak teeth while simultaneously giving you the beautiful smile you long for.
For example, dental crowns are great for weak teeth that are experiencing decay, damage, or cracks. These are natural-looking and versatile solutions to a variety of severe and painful problems. This option is great although it does require a few more office visits than porcelain veneers. Typically, the process requires a minimum of 2-3 visits over a 3-4 week period. Despite a few more visits though, with proper flossing and brushing, dental crowns are able to last a lifetime, giving your teeth the perfect natural-looking fix for painful issues.
Another option for fixing gaps, stains, or chips could be composite bonding. With proper maintenance you can expect composite bonding to work as a great solution for these problems. This option has some ups and downs. For example, it’s a quick process (usually under an hour) and it is natural-looking without affecting the tooth’s original structure. However, this option is easier to stain, making it require more maintenance such as avoiding staining food/drinks and daily brushing and flossing.
For those who may not be candidates for porcelain veneers, rest assured that our skilled team offers a range of alternative treatments, including crowns and bonding, tailored to strengthen weak teeth while achieving your desired smile transformation.
