Thorough Porcelain Veneer Treatment You May Avail in New York

When it comes to cosmetic dentistry treatments, the dental veneer installation is perhaps one of the most, if not the most, embraced upon by patients. This is not surprising considering that dental veneers (especially the porcelain kind) are meant to provide quick fix on numerous types of dental cosmetic issues, ranging from discolored teeth to tooth gaps.

Made from wafer-thin porcelain shells, porcelain  veneers are actually custom-made and tooth-colored materials designed to closely resemble a set of natural and healthy teeth. Using a special light, the shells are bonded to the front surface of your teeth to improve their appearance. Depending on your specific dental flaw, the bonded shells are being transformed to alter your teeth’s shape, size, length, or color.

Veneers can actually be made from other materials like from resin composite materials. At Family Dental Group in New York, porcelain veneers are generally preferred as they resist stains better and resemble more closely the light reflecting properties of natural teeth.

But in some instances, however, the equally skilled and experienced New York dental practice will recommend for resin veneers as they are thinner and require removal of less of the tooth surface before placement. At any rate, you really have to discuss with your chosen dentist regarding the veneer material most suitable for your dental condition.

Furthermore, porcelain veneer treatment is a thorough one at the Family Dental Group. The dental professional you will choose shall ensure that the custom-made veneers are perfectly calibrated to be bonded onto your teeth and adjusted to achieve optimum appearance. Moreover, your bite will also be assessed and adjustments be made to remove any excess cement.  You will be given post-op instructions and recovery steps as well.
