Cosmetic flaws such as chips, cracks, or staining on the teeth can make you feel uncomfortable when in social situations or when posing for pictures. However, this embarrassment doesn’t have to happen! With continued advances in cosmetic dentistry, patients have several options to choose from when it comes to restoring the smile and disguising imperfections. One of the most natural-looking and desirable options in Aliso Viejo, California, is that of the porcelain veneer.

Natural Looking Veneers in Aliso Viejo CA Area

What are porcelain veneers?

Claire Cho of the Claire Cho, DDS in Aliso Viejo, California, describes the porcelain veneer as a custom-made covering for the patient to cover imperfect teeth. They are commonly used to disguise:

  • Chips and cracks
  • Significant wear
  • Permanent stains
  • Unusually shaped teeth
  • Misalignment
  • Gaps between teeth

The veneers work by covering the front of the tooth with a thin shell of porcelain. This helps patients achieve a more attractive smile quickly and easily without orthodontic work, composite resin bonding, or professional-grade teeth whitening. Many patients choose porcelain veneers because they are easy to care for, long-lasting, and are made for the patient to match their existing teeth.

Who is a candidate for porcelain veneers?

Porcelain veneers are a smart choice for patients who want a long-lasting solution to imperfect teeth. In fact, with proper care, patients can expect their veneers to last for a decade or longer. It is also important that patients are already following a routine schedule for cleanings and examinations, as these are incredibly vital after placing veneers. The actual tooth is still underneath the veneer and is still susceptible to periodontal disease and cavities. The best candidates are patients who have imperfections on the teeth near the front of the smile they would like to disguise. These patients should also already be diligent about caring for their teeth and gums and visiting their dentist as scheduled.
