Whether you are looking to repair a chipped or worn tooth or you simply dream of attaining the perfect smile, dental veneers are becoming increasingly popular for their ability to repair, protect and enhance the overall appearance of teeth. This simple procedure leaves patients with stronger teeth and a beautiful, smile.
A dental veneer is a thin, custom-made covering that is placed over the front of the tooth. Veneers can be applied in a simple procedure that only requires a few visits. Dental veneers are popular for restoring the strength and appearance of teeth that may be:
