Porcelain material is relied on for restorative dental work, but its ability to mimic the look of enamel make it effective in cosmetic dental procedures, too. Porcelain can be durable, and its finish can match your teeth in color, and even imitate how they reflect light. If you need a dental crown, porcelain can be used in its construction. While the crown is durable, it will also avoid standing out in your smile and causing problems for your appearance. A set of porcelain veneers can have a terrifically transformative effect on how you look. Veneers are strong, attractive, and able to provide big changes to your smile.
The Cosmetic Value Of Porcelain Veneers
One reason people opt for veneers is because they are so versatile when it comes to correcting esthetic problems. If your tooth discoloration is not treated by traditional professional whitening agents, they can be covered with porcelain veneers. Teeth that are damaged or misshapen can also be covered, leaving you with a smile that is free of your original flaws. In some cases, veneers offer you a chance to address minor tooth misalignment in one treatment.
Porcelain Crowns Combine Durability And Attractiveness
A porcelain crown can hold up when pressures from biting and chewing are placed on it. It can also protect a vulnerable tooth without being a disruption to your appearance. Crowns can be necessary after a serious cavity treatment, or if damage has caused your tooth to become weaker. In your initial appointment, your dentist will prepare the tooth in question for the crown’s placement, and take measurements to determine the size and shape of the crown. Once it has been created in a lab and sent to your dentist, you can return to have it placed on your tooth.
