When teeth are crooked or overlapping, you may think that the only remedy is with some form of orthodontic treatment. In some cases, this may be true. In other cases, porcelain veneers may be used to correct the appearance of crooked teeth. Here are some things that your Perth dentists will consider:
Tooth Shape
Cosmetic dental treatment with veneers can do quite a bit for your smile.
When working with veneers, we take into account the overall shape and size of your teeth. We want each tooth to have a nice overall size, width, and shape at the end of the cosmetic process, so in order to fix an overlap or misalignment, it may be necessary to cover multiple teeth.
A Bright White Smile
Porcelain veneers can be made in almost any shade of white – to match your natural teeth colour, or even go much lighter. This means that you can correct some minor alignment issues and brighten up your smile! If you are looking into whitening and aligning your smile, we advise getting teeth whitening first so that the veneers on the treated teeth will match your new shade so that your natural tooth enamel and veneers all shine as bright as your personality. Porcelain has a benefit that it does not dull over time, so they will act as the new baseline shade for future maintenance.
Facial Symmetry
When you address cosmetic flaws in a smile, it does a lot for the whole face. When more teeth show as you smile, teeth no longer appear crowded. When teeth are properly spaced, sized, and shaped, the proportion of teeth to gums to lips all changes for the better.
Multiple Improvements In One
It is easy to see why porcelain veneers are a popular treatment for your neighbours around Perth who want the very best smile. Fixing a wonky smile is just one use for veneers. Small stains, chips, and misshapen teeth are just a few of the imperfections that can be mitigated with veneers.
