Our dentists may recommend porcelain veneers to Saint-Laurent patients who want to correct the appearance of discoloured, gapped, chipped, or misaligned teeth.
What is a Dental Veneer?
Veneers are a thin piece of durable, tooth-shaped porcelain that are custom-made in a laboratory to match the colour and shape of your teeth.
Our dentists at Clinique Dentaire Ville Saint-Laurent use veneers to give smiles a more uniform look. These restorations are bonded to the fronts of your natural teeth with a dental cement to improve the colour, shape and symmetry of your smile.
How Veneers Work
Crafted from thin pieces of porcelain, veneers are customized to match the appearance of your teeth, imitating their natural translucency and tooth enamel and have a very natural feel and look.
At the beginning of the process, your dentist will take an impression of your teeth and use that information to create your custom veneers.
Once your veneers have been made, your dentist will bond them to the fronts of your natural teeth.
Benefits of Veneers
If you are looking to improve the shape of individual teeth or the evenness of your whole smile, you may want to consider dental veneers as a less-intrusive alternative to dental crowns.
Conditions that dental veneers can resolve include worn, crooked, or discoloured teeth. They can also reduce unwanted spacing and change the size of your teeth.
Dental veneers can last for many years if cared for properly.
