Dublin, CA, dental provider describes the cosmetic improvement achieved with porcelain veneers

Drs. Munira Lokhandwala and Maryum Tariq of StarBrite Dental understand how an imperfect smile with chips, cracks, gaps, or staining can affect the way one feels about their appearance. The smile is the first impression you give to others, and when it is less than perfect, it can have a negative effect. With the help of our dental team, we can provide patients with cosmetic solutions to fix these concerns. When individuals visit our staff in Dublin, CA, looking for aesthetic treatment options for imperfect teeth near the front of the smile, they can consider porcelain veneers.

What is a porcelain veneer, and how does it work?

The best way to describe a porcelain veneer is as an extremely thin piece of ceramic bonded onto the front of a tooth. When this is done, it can disguise imperfections, including:

• Permanent staining
• Unusually shaped teeth
• Gaps between teeth
• Chips and cracks
• Other imperfections

It can provide patients with a fast and effective way of disguising problems near the front of the smile that are significantly impacting their confidence and appearance. It can eliminate the need for other time-consuming fixes such as orthodontic work while ensuring years of improvement before replacements are needed.

The veneer works by covering the front, exposed portion of the tooth, improving the appearance of the smile in an efficient manner. When a porcelain veneer is created by an experienced dentist, it will be indistinguishable from the rest of the natural teeth. Integrating the veneer into the smile by making it the right size, shape, and color is key to quality cosmetic dental work.
