There are several cleaning procedures a dentist can perform to alleviate pain but the appearance is permanently compromised if we wait too long to get a much needed consultation; for those cases there is still hope due to the development of especial parts called veneers. Cosmetic veneers are an ultra-thin, somewhat see-through material that is bonded permanently to your existing teeth. The most aesthetic naturally appearing pick for a range of dental cosmetic conditions are porcelain veneers.
Their purpose as stated above is to fill in the spaces or openings between your front teeth, correct cracked or broken teeth, correct the color of teeth that have been permanently tarnished or stained and even repair severely chipped teeth.
Due to the application procedure and purpose of use, veneers tend to be confused with crowns and bonding. Dental Bonding is a resin filling material applied to cover the front surface of teeth. Today, dental bonding is used merely to fill in tiny surfaces of the teeth and fix chips of teeth. A full crown is used while a tooth has gone through root canal surgery, or when a large amount of the whole tooth body has been lost.
On the other hand, porcelain veneers are applied to the surface of teeth to extend its surface area, fix cracks, cover discoloring and change the form or cover gapes. Once bonded to your teeth, these ultra-thin parts are virtually undetectable and extremely resistant to coffee, tea and other substances which can stain or change the color of your teeth.
For their integrity and natural look, the resemblance of veneers made of porcelain to original, white natural tooth enamel is unsurpassed by other choices for restorative dentistry.
Even though veneers are extremely useful they require some extensive work to shape the teeth on which they will be applied and once bonded they are permanently set. To avoid complications and improve the application/durability experience, specialists have designed an improved veneer version which are called: Lumineers. These improve parts serve the same purpose regular veneers do but they are thinner and stronger; they don't require extensive teeth reshaping and their application can be reversed.
These handy cosmetic dentistry tools are a great option which can help dentists restore heavily damaged teeth back to a magnificent and beautiful look.
