Get Porcelain Veneers: Free Yourself from an Unsightly Smile

When a person’s teeth make them feel self-conscious or embarrassed, they may try multiple ways to correct their smile. This could involve using over-the-counter treatments that promise miracles, to simply accepting the inevitable and smiling with their mouth closed. Instead of suffering with teeth that negatively impact your confidence, make a permanent change with porcelain veneers and improve your life immediately.

The Boost Your Confidence Needs

When you’ve been embarrassed by your teeth for a long time, you get used to making adjustments to hide them. You don’t reveal your teeth for photos. You cover your mouth when you laugh. You don’t speak up quite as much as you might like. But this hyper-awareness is no way to live.

A smile makeover choice like porcelain veneers conceals everything that’s plaguing your smile cosmetically. Chips, cracks, stains, misalignment, gaps, short teeth – it can all be evened out and perfected through customized cosmetic dentistry.

Your Personalized Veneers

Veneers are customized to the patient. There is no one-size-fits-all, and that’s the thing that makes veneers look so great when they’re bonded in place – they are your teeth and yours alone. They look natural for you and your face shape, your skin coloring, and your mouth.

Together, you and your Haymarket cosmetic dentist will determine the ideal characteristics of your veneers to make sure your smile comes out the way you want it, including:

• Size: If you’re getting veneers to address short teeth, size matters to you especially. You want to make sure the new smile you end up with is just the right proportion for your mouth. And you don’t want your teeth to all be identical either so they look more natural.
• Shape: Teeth are not all square and sharp. They can be more rounded or rectangular, square and smooth. The goal is to get multiple shapes that make your teeth look like you were born with them, instead of cookie-cutter teeth that scream “fake.”
• Color: Many people want the whitest teeth possible. They are so tired of having unsightly and dull teeth that they want white, white, white. But there are many shades of white, and getting the brightest version may not be the most natural-looking solution. You and your dentist will carefully determine what shade is best for your skin tone.
• Translucency: This is an element that you may not think about until your dentist mentions it. But the amount of light that shines through and off your veneers is what makes them look like natural teeth. This factor needs to be carefully calibrated so the tint of your teeth under the veneers does not negatively affect translucency.

Find the Smile Makeover That Frees You

Veneers are the one-stop-shop of smile makeovers. They cover up every aesthetic complaint you have with your smile. But they’re not the only solution for being freed from the restrictions that your smile has imposed on you. Other cosmetic dentistry options like professional teeth whitening, cosmetic tooth bonding, Invisalign, and more can get your smile into the shape you’ve always wanted.
