If you have chipped teeth, a small gap between teeth, or misshapen teeth, porcelain veneers are an excellent way to help improve your smile. A porcelain veneer is a thin shell custom-made of tooth-colored material to fit on your tooth. These thin shells are applied to the front side of teeth changing the shape and color. Porcelain veneers can last up to 15 years when properly maintained.

Benefits of Getting Porcelain Veneers

• Durable & Stain Resistant: When properly maintained, your porcelain veneers can resist staining and decay better than natural teeth. Dental veneers are an excellent investment because they can last between 10-15 years. While porcelain veneers are both durable and stain-resistant, they still need to be cared for as you would natural teeth.
• Natural Looking: Since porcelain veneers are custom-made, they will look and feel like your other natural teeth. Have peace of mind knowing that no one will be able to tell you have veneers when smiling. 
• Low Maintenance: When it comes to porcelain veneers, all you need to do is brush them and floss them daily to maintain good oral health, along with going to regular dental checkups. Other than that, there is nothing special that needs to be done to care for your porcelain veneers. 
• Minimally Invasive: If you were to get a dental crown or dental bridge, you would need to remove a lot of enamel to fit over a tooth or multiple teeth. A porcelain veneer is only bonded to the front of the tooth, so only a thin layer of enamel must be removed.
