4 Signs that You Need Veneers

August 1, 2014

VeneersYour smile is often the first thing that people notice about you, but when you are unhappy with how your teeth look you may not be putting your best feature forward. For many people, cosmetic dentistry is the ideal solution for them, providing the confidence that they need to flash their pearly whites and express their true emotions. Porcelain veneers can significantly improve the look of your smile when you need restoration. If you see any of the following signs in your own smile, it may be time to contact your dentist.

Stains

Over time, your natural teeth may experience some discoloration. Stains can make their way through your enamel onto your teeth. While teeth whitening can sometimes help, porcelain veneers provide a permanent solution to yellow teeth, especially those that are too stained for bleaching to fix. Certain foods, such as berries, curry, and coffee, as well as smoking and even some antibiotics can cause permanent staining of the teeth. If your teeth don’t respond to professional whitening treatments, veneers may be the better option to give you the results that you want.

Misaligned Teeth

If your teeth are crooked, you may hide them behind your lips when you smile. Correcting misaligned teeth can be done with braces or other orthodontic care, but those options often take years. Veneers provide immediate results and leave you with the smile that you have always wanted. Gaps or crooked teeth are covered with the thin porcelain shells by professionally trained dentists. Orthodontics can be very expensive and time consuming. With veneers, you are able to get similar results at a much lower cost.

Cracks or Chips

Accidents that leave you with chipped or cracked teeth are frustrating. Not only can cracked teeth be painful, but they can end up severely damaged and even discolored. If you have a chipped tooth, you can restore it to its original state with veneers. The veneers cover any imperfections that your teeth may have so that your tooth is protected from further damage.

Low Self Esteem

No one should have to be embarrassed by their teeth. If you have low self esteem due to the appearance of your teeth, you may want to seriously consider porcelain veneers. With a complete aesthetic transformation, you can find the confidence that you have always wanted to be able to share your beautiful smile with those around you.
