Porcelain Veneers FAQs
Would porcelain veneers or dental crowns be better for me?
While porcelain veneers and dental crowns can correct many of the same dental concerns, their underlying purpose is slightly different. Porcelain veneers are primarily designed to conceal chips, discoloration, and other perceived issues for cosmetic purposes.
In contrast, dental crowns can certainly improve the appearance of teeth, but their main purpose is to strengthen the structure of a tooth affected by damage or decay.
During a consultation, one of our experienced dentists can help you determine whether veneers or crowns would be more appropriate for your specific needs and goals.
Will my porcelain veneers appear natural?
Imagine Advanced Dental Arts offers porcelain veneers designed to mimic the shape, color, and overall appearance of natural teeth.
Our dentists are highly skilled at color-matching veneers to the exact shade you desire for your smile. Once secured, most people won’t even know you have porcelain veneers unless you tell them.
Is the porcelain veneer procedure painful?
Patient comfort is always a top priority at our practice. Depending on your unique needs, some minor tooth reshaping and/or reduction may be required to ensure an optimal fit for the porcelain veneer(s).
In these instances, our dentists can utilize a local numbing agent to help minimize (or eliminate) any possible discomfort. Overall, most patients report that the experience is relatively painless.
How long do porcelain veneers last?
With proper oral care, porcelain veneers can last multiple years—and sometimes decades. To help extend the life and optimal appearance of your veneers, it is recommended that you brush and floss at least two times daily and schedule regular visits.
If you grind your teeth at night, we also advise that you consider wearing a night guard to protect against unnecessary wear.
Are there any alternatives to porcelain veneers?
Our practice offers a wide array of cosmetic dentistry treatments that can help enhance the appearance of your smile.
If porcelain veneers are not the best option, potential alternatives could include teeth whitening, dental crowns, and/or orthodontic solutions such as ClearCorrect™ or Six Month Smiles®.
