Porcelain veneers are thin, custom-made shells of dental porcelain bonded to the front surfaces of teeth to correct imperfections in shape, size, color, and overall appearance.
Porcelain veneers work by removing a thin layer of enamel from the front of the tooth and bonding a custom-crafted porcelain shell in its place, instantly transforming the color, shape, and overall appearance.
Porcelain veneers help by instantly correcting a wide range of cosmetic concerns — including chips, cracks, gaps, discoloration, and uneven shapes — with results that look completely natural and last for years.
