Porcelain Veneers and Oral Health

Porcelain veneers are commonly known as an optimal cosmetic dental solution. This treatment features cap-like ceramic shells that are bonded to your teeth for permanent smile enhancement. Veneers improve the appearance of your smile, but they can help your oral health as well.

Minor tooth repair

Patients seek cosmetic treatment with porcelain veneers to whiten discolored teeth and straighten crooked teeth. If you have broken, cracked, or chipped teeth, veneers can help you too. Major damage may require a restorative dental solution, such as a crown. Minor issues may be amended with veneers, which cover the front of teeth to enhance the appearance of your smile. Dentists construct veneers with the unique size, shape, and color of your teeth in consideration for a natural appearance. You can discuss your aesthetic goals with your dentist to determine if porcelain veneers are the best treatment for your dental needs.

Food accumulation reduction

Patients with crooked teeth or gaps between teeth may have difficulties while eating with food accumulating in their teeth. Sometimes this can occur without a patient’s notice. Trapped food interacts with bacteria in your mouth to decompose. This can cause bad breath or soreness in your teeth and gums if it remains stuck in your mouth. If left untreated for an extended period of time, it can lead to tooth decay and other issues that may require extensive dental work to repair. Veneers can fix the appearance of crooked or gapped teeth and also prevent food from getting trapped and causing oral health problems.

Enamel replacement

Veneers cover the front of your teeth with a thin ceramic shell, which can protect tooth enamel in this area. Plaque can eat away at enamel, and once enamel weakens, it cannot be restored. Porcelain veneers can replace thinned enamel. This can relieve painful symptoms associated with enamel loss, such as tooth sensitivity. Porcelain veneers are permanent and resistant to plaque and staining that affects enamel. Talk to your dentist about these benefits in relation to your oral health.
