Do You Have Several Concerns? Veneers Could Likely Address Them All
- Cosmetic tooth contouring is similar to bonding, in that it can also be completed quickly and affordably. Both can generally be completed in less than an hour! However contouring is used to carefully etch away portions of the teeth that are disproportionately large, jagged edges, or minor overlapping of the teeth.
- Porcelain veneers are one of the most comprehensive options for smile enhancement, because they can help address many of the same issues as bonding and contouring. However, the added benefit of porcelain veneers is that they can generally be enjoyed much longer, thanks to porcelain’s unique properties. In fact, many people don’t realize that porcelain is incredibly similar to natural tooth enamel, making it both strong and stain-resistant, for long-lasting results.
Could Combining Treatments Be the Key?
In some cases, the best way to achieve a patient’s ideal smile is by combining a few cosmetic treatments. For instance, a dentist may frequently recommend all-over teeth whitening, before using bonding or veneers to address a few disproportionately-shaped teeth.
