Veneers
You have seen it, you have heard of it. But if you fall into the one-third of Americans who are self-conscious about their teeth, you might know it first-hand. We are talking about porcelain veneers!
If your teeth are stained and can’t be whitened by bleaching, or you are concerned about worn or chipped teeth, crooked or misshapen teeth, uneven spaces, or a large gap between the upper front teeth – you will benefit from veneers!
Maybe you are concerned about the small stature of your teeth. Small teeth, generally, are not a problem, aesthetically or health-wise. The problem can be that your teeth weren’t always this, well, little. The reduction in length can be due to grinding. Veneers would bring back what you had worn away!
Again, if you want to improve your smile, dental veneers may be an option. Veneers are very thin and delicate shells of porcelain, which are bonded to the teeth’ front surface to improve the color, shape, position, or size of them. And they look like natural teeth.
You might need the assurance you wouldn’t end up with that bulky, too-white-it’s-almost-blue telltale veneer appearance. At Revitta you WOULD NOT! We hope you are put at ease. Think of that image of a Chiclet-looking smile? It’s not a thing anymore. Unless you built a time machine and traveled ten years back. Veneers themselves have come a long way. The porcelain they are made with now is a lot stronger, which gives them a much thinner, realistic-looking appearance.
The difference with modern veneers is that the goal is natural appearance. And not only because the idea of a perfect smile is so subjective, but also because “100% perfect” teeth look inconceivably fake. Let’s be real, who wants to be a walking billboard for fake teeth? Good veneers should be completely invisible. Meaning they should have things like color graduation, some translucency at the bottom, and slightly imperfect shapes. Why? Because that’s what natural teeth have.
The entire process takes just a couple of weeks and a few appointments. In the end, you will get exactly what you wanted. You still might bust out a closed-mouth smile every now and then. But now it’s because you want to, not because you are hiding anything. Unless there’s food in your teeth…
