Dental Porcelain Veneers in Union City, NJ
Let’s face it—we’re not always lucky to be born with the teeth of our dreams. Sometimes our smiles are uneven from the start, and other times damage or stains can change the look of them over time.
If you have a tooth that is cracked, chipped, stained, or otherwise damaged, dental veneers can help. Dental veneers are thin sheets of porcelain that are bonded to the front of your tooth, giving the appearance of an even, bright smile.
Benefits of Porcelain Veneers
Porcelain veneers are great for so many reasons. First of all, the porcelain is strong and can hold up to regular use over time. They can last more than two decades with proper care! Secondly, the porcelain is more stain-resistant than your natural teeth. That means your teeth will stay looking whiter, longer. Finally, they can completely change the look of your smile and give your confidence back in no time flat.
How Long Does the Veneer Process Take?
Porcelain veneers usually take two appointments to apply because they must be custom-created in a lab to fit your tooth. During your initial appointment, our Union City, NJ dentist will take an impression of your mouth so that the custom veneer can be created. The impression will then be sent to the lab, and you’ll have to come back in a week or two to get the dental veneers permanently fitted. The procedure is pain-free, and you should be able to use the tooth normally as soon as the cement hardens.
