What Problems Can Dental Veneers Fix?

For those in need of corrective or cosmetic dentistry in Guelph, there's never been a better time to get work done. There are a wide variety of procedures available, across an equally wide range of price points, so that nearly any patient has options on the table for improving their smile.

Dental veneers are a beautiful treatment option and can provide that beautiful smile you have always desired. Simply put, dental veneers are thin slices of porcelain which are custom shaped to fit a patient's teeth, then bonded into place. Veneers can quickly correct for a wide range of mild-to-moderate flaws with peoples' teeth while being relatively painless to apply and lasting for many years with proper care.

If you have cosmetic issues with your teeth, here are some of the things that Guelph dental veneers can correct.

Four Situations Where Dental Veneers Are A Good Corrective Choice

1 - Crowded/Spaced Teeth

In many situations veneers are able to correct crowded or spaced teeth without the need for any orthodontic treatment. Not only can they provide a great treatment outcome, but also do so in a non-invasive and time effective manner.

2 - Chipped or broken teeth

Dental veneers are also an excellent choice for correcting mild-to-moderate physical damage on teeth, by literally covering the damage up. The veneers will also provide a shield that helps prevent chips or cracks from expanding, so their use isn't solely cosmetic. A well-trained cosmetic dentist can choose the right material for your specific needs.

3 - Uneven teeth shapes

Sometimes natural teeth are shaped in such a fashion that they're technically not out-of-alignment or likely to cause dental issues, but they look strange or aren't quite the right shape for someone’s facial size of type. This is another case where veneers are a great option. Even several oddly-shaped teeth can be quickly reshaped to look like a movie star's teeth.

4 - Discoloration

Certain types of tooth discolouration do not respond well to tooth whitening. In these situations, Porcelain Veneers are best way to achieve a whiter and more aesthetically pleasing smile. The beauty of porcelain veneers is that their colour stays stable over the years and does not stain. A common misconception is that veneers look fake, but if you go to a well trained cosmetic dentist, the result will be perfectly natural looking.
