Are you unhappy with the way your teeth look? If your front teeth are stained, chipped, cracked, or unevenly spaced, dental veneers can give you a total smile makeover. Veneers cover the entire front surface of the tooth, hiding any imperfections. They’re a permanent cosmetic treatment with long-lasting results. Here’s how veneers can improve your smile.
Four Cosmetic Problems Veneers Can Correct
1. Chipped or Cracked Front Teeth
Veneers can repair minor damage like chips and surface cracks by adding an extra layer of protection. However, teeth with deeper cracks will probably need a crown instead.
2. Reshapes Teeth
If you feel self conscious about teeth that are too small, too long, or slightly uneven, veneers can restore your confidence. Veneers cover up minor imperfections and reshape your front teeth so they look symmetrical and even. However, some alignment issues can only be corrected with braces or clear aligners.
3. Gaps Between Front Teeth
If you have a gap between your front teeth, veneers may be an alternative to orthodontics. Veneers reshape your teeth and hide gaps completely. But as with alignment issues, significant gaps may call for braces or aligners.
4. Severe Stains
Whitening treatments will only work on surface stains. If you have yellowed teeth, it may be that the dentin inside your teeth is showing through. Veneers can give you a brighter, natural-looking smile that lasts much longer than any whitening treatment and resists stains as well.
Who Is a Good Candidate for a Smile Makeover with Veneers?
Veneers may be right for you if you:
- Wish to correct cosmetic imperfections like stains, chips, gaps, or minor misalignment
- Have enough tooth enamel to support the veneer
- Don’t have untreated gum disease or cavities
- Have good oral health
- Don’t grind or clench your teeth
- Are looking for natural, long-lasting results
