The Latest in Porcelain Veneers
Lumineer, MacVeneer, Durathins and Vivaneers are brand names of porcelain veneers from different companies. The tooth preparation guidelines and manufacturing process for these brand name porcelain veneers are somewhat similar with slight variation. In order to determine which option is best for you, Drs. Rayani and Siao will consider a variety of circumstances, which include your unique dental history, your overall health, your personal desires and expectations, and their professional understanding of how the final results will meet your needs.
Advantages:
Stain Resistant: A significant advantage of placing porcelain veneers is the nature of the material. Since porcelain is a ceramic, and therefore glass-like, the porcelain surface of veneers will be extremely stain resistant.
Repair Minor Tooth Imperfections: Teeth that have small chips or whose surface is worn or misshapen are often good candidates for porcelain veneers.
Correcting Discolored Teeth: Porcelain veneers can be used to cover and conceal old fillings or tooth-colored bondings that have become stained or discolored.
Permanent Whitening: Porcelain veneers can be used to make color changes for teeth that have permanent stains. Some teeth are just naturally discolored. This includes teeth that have tetracycline or fluorosis (chalky white) staining and those that have become darkened as a result of physical trauma or root canal treatment. In most cases these teeth are good candidates for porcelain veneers.
Instant Orthodontics: In some cases porcelain veneers can be used as an alternative to orthodontic treatment. Porcelain veneers can be used to close the space (called a "diastema") between a person's teeth. In cases where teeth are crooked, porcelain veneers can be used to cosmetically straighten those teeth in as little as 2 visits.
"Instant orthodontics" through cosmetic dentistry, has its advantages as an incredible treatment alternative to traditional orthodontics with metal braces. Be amazed as Drs. Rayani and Siao transform your smile in as little as 2-3 appointments.
With the artistic application of porcelain veneers, your smile can be straightened, teeth length can be restored; color, shape and contour can all be corrected and balanced to harmonize with your face and smile. With today’s busy schedules, many adults just don't have the time for the 15 to 20 office visits over 2-3 years, required with traditional orthodontics.
The option of "instant orthodontics" through cosmetic dentistry certainly is a treatment to consider for the best and most convenient overall results!
