What are Porcelain Veneers?
Porcelain veneers are custom-made, thin, tooth-colored ceramic shells that are bonded to the front surface of your teeth to change their color, shape, length, or size. They can dramatically transform your smile’s appearance by addressing several kinds of flaws:
- Chipped teeth
- Discolored teeth
- Misshaped teeth
- Worn-down teeth
- Small gaps between teeth
Basically, if you want to cover an imperfection in your smile, getting a porcelain veneer is a great option.
