Veneers | | | Get the White Smile You've Always Wanted | |  | | Dental veneers fall into the category of cosmetic dentistry because they create a bright, white smile with beautifully aligned, shapely teeth. Veneers are custom-designed shells of wafer-thin, tooth-colored ceramic material that are bonded to the teeth's surface to improve their appearance. They can change the color, shape and size of your teeth. They can also cover worn enamel, correct uneven alignment or spacing and hide chips or cracks.
Veneers are made from porcelain or from resin composite materials. Porcelain veneers resist stains better and retain more of the light-reflective qualities of natural teeth than resin veneers do. Resin veneers are thinner and require removal of less of the tooth surface before placement.
If you are interested in veneers, plan on a 3-5 day trip. The first day is spent prepping the teeth and taking impressions, which are then sent to the lab, while you spend a few days enjoying the local sites. A few days later, you will return for a second appointment to have the veneers bonded to your teeth. You’ll return home with an amazing new smile! |
