What are Porcelain\nVeneers? <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Porcelain\nveneers are thin, custom-designed sheaths that are bonded to the front of teeth\nto conceal minor dental flaws like chipped, cracked or discolored teeth. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Veneer treatment\ncan typically be completed in just two trips to a dentist. During the first\nvisit, a very small amount of enamel \u2013 usually less than a millimeter \u2013 is removed\nto ensure the veneers fit properly on top of your teeth. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once your\ncustom-designed veneers are crafted and ready, your dentist will welcome you\nback and carefully apply them to the top of your teeth. He or she will secure\nthe veneers in place using a light-sensitive resin and special curing light. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
