Cosmetic treatments such as porcelain veneers can be instrumental in helping patients improve their smiles. They are a versatile restoration that can be used to cover natural teeth to change their appearance. This restoration is available from Dr. Virtue of Virtue Dental Care, and is a popular option for patients who want a complete smile makeover.

Veneers, also known as dental veneers, are actually very thin pieces of porcelain. This material is strong and best replicates the appearance of natural tooth enamel, improving the esthetics of a patient’s smile. They are made to match the color and shape of the patient’s teeth to look completely natural and beautiful. They are then bonded to the teeth, and can last several decades with proper care. Patients will find that these restorations are a wonderful way to complete a smile makeover, or to change just one or two problem teeth within a smile.

Veneers are used in several different dental situations. Veneers play a big role in cosmetic dentistry, as they make a drastic or subtle change to a smile. Patients can use them on teeth that are unusually shaped, severely discolored, or on teeth that are chipped, cracked, or broken. Patients may also choose veneers in lieu of orthodontics, using them to cover individual teeth that may be crooked or misaligned. Porcelain veneers can be used in both cosmetic and general dentistry in many ways, which makes them a popular option for both dentists and patients. While there are various alternative treatments, veneers are one of the fastest, easiest, and more affordable methods to improve their smiles and make the necessary changes to rejuvenate the way they look and feel.

Dr. Virtue is proud to offer high quality porcelain veneers and other cosmetic restorations for patients to assist them in enhancing their smiles. Patients who are looking for an effective way to beautify their smiles can contact Virtue Dental Care in Yadkinville to learn about the various treatments available to achieve the beautiful, stunning smile they want and deserve!

Veneers are thin handcrafted porcelain shields worn on the front of the tooth

Veneers are thin handcrafted porcelain shields worn on the front of the tooth which improve the appearance of teeth that are chipped, cracked, stained or worn. Veneers are thin as contact lenses, and are an aesthetically pleasing option of closing gaps, lengthening teeth, and providing symmetry to make your smile more natural. Veneers are intended to last for many years without changing color. They are one of the most popular cosmetic procedures in dentistry. Ask your dentist if veneers may be right for you.
