Porcelain Veeners

A porcelain veneer is a paper-thin, custom-made covering that conceals the front and side surfaces of your tooth, much like a mask or an artificial fingernail. But unlike a fingernail, veneers are made of a very durable ceramic material that actually strengthens your tooth.

Veneers are versatile. They can correct stains, breaks, and odd shapes, and they can lengthen individual teeth. During a two-step procedure separated by 1 to 3 weeks, your dentist first prepares one or more teeth, then fits the veneer.

A major benefit of veneer is tooth conservation: little enamel is removed in preparation for the restoration. Porcelain veneers, however, aren't ideal for people with severe bite problems or for those who grind their teeth - a habit that can break the veneer.
