Benefits of Porcelain Veneers

Porcelain veneers provide a multitude of benefits compared to other smile restoration options.

First, they are non-invasive, painless and offer near-instant gratification. For the imperfections they can fix, it’s almost too good to be true. In just a short amount of time, a number of problems can be addressed, such as:
  • Cracked or fractured teeth
  • Undesired gaps between teeth
  • Enamel that has become discolored overtime due to aging or staining agents, such as coffee, tea, red wine, nicotine, chocolate or acidic foods

While porcelain veneers cannot fix major cracks nor can they be applied to significantly decayed teeth or to a patient who has been a victim of periodontal disease, they are the perfect solution to the majority of cosmetic issues.

If you’re just looking to whiten your smile, than having your teeth whitened might be your preferred method. However, there are numerous benefits of porcelain veneers over tooth whitening procedures:
  • Longevity
  • Any unattractive gaps between your teeth will be eliminated
  • The ceramic material porcelain veneers are made of is resistant to future decay and staining agents
  • Porcelain veneers act as a protective shell against future damage, reducing the likelihood of additional, more costly dental work in the future
  • Porcelain veneers are custom made to match your skin tone, hair color and eye color

If you’re considering porcelain veneers or would like to know more about the benefits of porcelain veneers, please contact Smiles By Sands, serving Valley Village and surrounding areas of California, today.
