When you want to beautify your smile, there are many possible ways to make it happen. Cosmetic dentistry options abound. However, there may be some very clear signs that porcelain veneers are the one smile makeover treatment that is calling your name.
1. You have multiple cosmetic complaints.
Veneers are a popular smile upgrade because they correct every cosmetic complaint you have about your teeth in one swoop. Stains, discoloration, gaps, misalignment, chips, cracks – it is all concealed behind those super-thin, carefully customized porcelain veneers.
2. You don’t want to spend a lot of time in the dentist’s chair.
In just one procedure (which usually takes two visits to your dentist) you can hide everything you dislike about your teeth and create a new smile. The first visit typically involves the preparation of your teeth for the veneers, which includes the removal of some tooth enamel to make room for the veneers. You will also discuss all the characteristics of your veneers with your dentist to pinpoint exactly how they will look. During the second visit, the porcelain veneers will be permanently bonded to your teeth.
3. You are envious of celebs with their gorgeous teeth.
We have a secret for you: Most celebrities, journalists, and other people in the spotlight have had cosmetic dentistry. While some of them may have gotten teeth whitening or dental bonding to brighten their smiles, we’re willing to bet that the majority have gotten customized porcelain veneers.
Veneers are a smile makeover solution that isn’t reserved for celebs alone – you can have the same kind of VIP smile yourself. Your Arlington dentist will give you a dental exam to ensure that you have healthy teeth and gums that are prepared for cosmetic dentistry and you’ll go from there to find the best route to a beautiful, celeb-worthy smile.
4. Other cosmetic dentistry procedures won’t work for you.
Some people want whiter teeth and would love to undergo teeth whitening, but they just don’t have the kind of stains or discoloration that can be altered by a treatment like this. Some stains are deep within the tooth enamel and cannot be bleached out, like antibiotic stains or naturally yellowish teeth. In cases like this, porcelain veneers are one of the best options for whitening your smile.
5. You want a natural-looking solution.
One of the biggest advantages of porcelain veneers is how natural they look. They make your teeth look flawless, but they are also carefully designed to mimic authentic tooth enamel. Every aspect of your veneers is carefully considered so the smile makeover you get will look very real. From color to shape to size to length, it’s all designed with your unique characteristics in mind.
