There’s no reason to put up with gaps in your teeth or with teeth that are stained, misshapen, or crooked. Today a veneer placed on top of your teeth can correct nature’s mistakes and repair the results of an injury to help you have the beautiful smile you’ve always wanted.

Veneers are thin, custom-made shells crafted of tooth-colored materials designed to cover the front side of teeth. When receiving dental veneers it is necessary to remove a small amount of enamel from your teeth to accommodate the shell and provide you the best cosmetic result.

We recommend that you avoid some foods and beverages that may stain or discolor your veneers such as coffee, tea, or red wine.

If you have any questions about veneers, please don’t hesitate to give us a call. We’re happy to help you.

Porcelain Crowns

Porcelain crowns, commonly referred to as caps, are hardened ceramic tooth coverings. There are many reasons you may need a dental crown on one or more teeth. These include:

• Breaks or cracks in a tooth
• Tooth decay
• Fractured fillings
• Filling replacement
• Root canal treatment
• Cosmetic enhancement

Porcelain dental work will best mimic the look of your natural teeth. Metal does not look natural and while composite resin may be tooth colored, it does not allow any light to shine through it. Natural teeth are semi-translucent, allowing a small amount of light to shine through. Porcelain is also semi-translucent, thus most resembling the natural appearance of your regular teeth. Ask for a porcelain crown the next time you need a tooth capped!
