There are many ways to obtain a beautiful smile through cosmetic dental procedures in North Royalton, OH. They can include getting veneers, or dental tooth coverings, over your existing teeth.
What Are Veneers?
Dental veneers may be used to correct teeth discoloration, chipped teeth, tooth gaps, or crooked teeth. Dental veneers can be made from thin porcelain or composite resin materials and can look very natural when properly placed. Porcelain veneers are often stronger and more stain resistant than their resin counterparts, offering the ability to eat and drink foods that you normally would without having to be concerned with how your teeth may be affected. Typically, porcelain veneers are covered with resin, which helps them resist stains. However, while porcelain veneers offer a great tooth correction option for daily usage, they are not fully resistant to stains or completely unbreakable.
No Recovery Period
Whereas other treatments require anesthesia, meaning you need a couple days to recover, a porcelain veneer does not require the same level of recovery. You will be able to walk out of our practice, drive yourself home and go to work the next day.
Coverage of Various Problems
These thin shells of porcelain may not be able to cover up every single dental issue, but they do cover a lot. Whether your teeth are broken, chipped, or cracked, veneers cover up any problem areas. They are also great when your teeth have intrinsic discoloration that cannot be corrected with normal teeth whitening.
Long-Lasting Solution
Once your restoration is in place, you typically will not have to worry for a long time. If you take care of your veneer, it should be able to last between 10 and 15 years. Proper upkeep entails brushing and flossing every day.
Durability and Strength
The veneer is held firmly into place over the tooth, meaning you can chew and talk with confidence. While you should avoid biting down on hard objects, such as ice cubes and your fingernails, you should be able to eat normally. You can eat all your favorite foods with peace of mind.
