Dental veneers are thin pieces of tooth-colored porcelain cemented to the front surfaces of your natural teeth, and are an easy way to address a variety of physical and aesthetic problems. Because they're also permanent, however, you'll need to carefully weigh the pros and cons of the procedure before you decide to get them. Here are six things to think about and discuss with your dentist.
Crowns
Oral health can have a far bigger impact on a person’s life than regular cleanings and the occasional filling can address. Many patients who’ve dealt with injury, illness, bite problems, and simple wear and tear can have chronic problems that they don’t even realize began in the mouth. Bruxism (tooth grinding), TMJ, periodontitis, crooked or misshapen teeth, and missing teeth can combine to cause headaches and migraines, toothaches, chronic bad breath, and an unattractive appearance. But you don’t have to live like that.
Amalgam fillings of silver-mercury have been widely used in dental practices for quite some time. This filling material has some shortcomings, as metal does not bind tightly to the tooth structure, allowing decay to set in. Patients do not like the appearance of a dark filling in light teeth. It is very noticeable and not pleasing to look at. We use only modern restorations that contain no metal, bond tightly to a tooth, and can be made to match the shade of the tooth. They add strength to a tooth and provide full functionality for chewing every type of food. They are hardly noticeable, so it looks like you have your natural tooth completely intact.
We
also feature DURAthin™ veneers. These are contact-lens thin and
super translucent. Since DURAthins are so thin, little to no
tooth reduction is necessary. Often times you won't even need a
shot!
