Veneers



Porcelain veneers or laminates are used to cosmetically enhance the appearance of front teeth. These thin porcelain shells are bonded to the surfaces of the teeth.


Veneers are used to close spaces between teeth, correct the shape of a tooth, repair a broken or chipped tooth, or to improve the appearance of badly stained teeth.


Another cosmetic treatment is direct composite bonding, which uses a plastic material available in many shades, making it possible to closely match your natural tooth color.


Usually the edges of veneers and bonding are at the gumline. For optimum gum health and restoration longevity, it is imperative to keep this area clean and healthy. With its dynamic fluid cleaning action, the Sonicare toothbrush is ideal for patients with veneers or bonding.
