Veneers improve your looks
April 30th, 2010
There’s no longer any reason to put up with gaps in your teeth or with teeth that are stained, badly shaped, discolored, chipped or crooked. A veneer placed over the face of your teeth can correct these imperfections to give you a beautiful smile.
Veneers are thin, custom-made shells crafted of tooth-colored materials designed to cover the front side of teeth. They’re made by a dental technician, working from a model provided by Dr. Camuccio.
Although veneers are probably the most popular cosmetic treatment offered by our team, not everyone is a candidate for veneers, so you should talk to Dr. Camuccio to see if veneers can work for you to improve your smile.
During your consultation, Dr. C will discuss the pros and cons of veneers to help you decide if you want to follow through. And his recommendation will sometimes hinge on your overall dental health. For example, periodontal disease could be an impediment to treatment, so a plan to correct that condition may be recommended first. (Correction of periodontal disease should be achieved, anyway, for your overall health.)
Porcelain veneers are the most common material used. They look more like natural teeth and resist stains better than “resin” veneers, although resin veneers require less enamel to be removed from your teeth. All of these options will be discussed during your consultation.
If you have any questions about veneers, call Dr. Camuccio at 954-781-6170.
