Every smile has qualities that make it special and unique. Over time, these qualities may start to fade due to age and wear and tear on your teeth. Add to that the toll of decay or accidental injury, and it’s easy to see how your smile can lose its aesthetic appeal. At Portland Dental, we offer a long-term solution to cosmetic issues with your teeth in the form of cosmetic teeth veneers. Veneers can infuse new life into your smile in a matter of weeks! Whether you want to brighten your smile, conceal defects, or improve your smile’s symmetry, your Portland, Oregon dentist, Dr. Kaveendra Ranasinghe, can help with porcelain veneers.
Veneers are ultra-thin porcelain shells bonded to your teeth to cover flaws that make your smile less appealing. These shells are custom-made to conform to your teeth’ color, shape, and size to give your smile a natural, pleasing appearance. Veneers are placed over existing teeth after a thin layer of enamel is removed. The process is quick, painless, and minimally invasive and can be completed in a matter of weeks.
Here are a few ways veneers can benefit you:
If you have stains on your teeth that don’t respond to tooth whitening, Dr. Ranasinghe can conceal them with veneers! Covering stained teeth with veneers gives them a whiter, brighter appearance. Veneers can help restore the youthful appearance of your teeth, making them look fresh and clean. With good oral care, your smile can retain its radiant appearance for years!
Tooth gaps may be cute when you’re little but lose their charm fairly quickly as you grow into your teen and adult years. Closing gaps and uneven spaces is easy with veneers. Veneers work much quicker than orthodontics and provide the same pleasing results.
Veneers are great at masking chips, cracks, and dents in your teeth caused by wear and tear or injury. Placing veneers on worn or damaged teeth makes them stronger. Veneers add an extra layer of protection to damaged teeth to keep them from chipping or cracking in the future. Porcelain veneers are quite strong and will protect your teeth through years of constant use. They’re also stain-resistant, which can help your teeth retain their attractive appearance for a long time.
Using veneers, Dr. Ranasinghe can improve the size and shape of malformed or irregular teeth to make your smile more uniform. Slightly crooked teeth can be made to appear straight and even. Veneers can correct disparities in tooth lengths and widths to give your smile a consistent, balanced appearance.
In short, veneers can give you a smile you’ll love by dramatically improving its visual appeal.
