PORCELAIN VENEERS
Let's say you're not satisfied with the appearance of your smile, even if it is a small detail. Whether it be in relation to the shape, color, distance between the elements or between the gums, wear and asymmetries, amongst others issues.
There are endless characteristics people want to change in their smiles, from nearly imperceptible aesthetic details, to characteristics that catch other people's attention and might impact quality of life and even patient's self-esteem.
The planning is specifically made to each patient according to their needs and expectations. It is also necessary to decide which treatment is suitable for each case: lenses or veneers.
Veneers are most common when there is a color change due to lack of enamel or when a tooth has darkened after a root canal treatment. This is recommended for complex cases considering the placement of veneers require some teeth wear, which removes part of it's enamel. As a result, this technique is usually applied when patients demands a denser coverage to be done.
Contact Lenses, on the other hand, are used to small corrections such as stretching, increasing the width or rounding the angles of teeth. Lenses preserve the natural structure of a tooth as there is no need for wear, as it occurs with the veneers.
The most important thing is to consult a professional in order to decide which is the best treatment for each situation. Want to know more? Send us a message!
