Porcelain Veneers

Porcelain veneers are an extremely thin layer of tooth-colored porcelain material that’s cemented on the front surface of your tooth. Some of the issues that porcelain veneers in Weehawken can correct are:

• Discolored teeth

• Uneven tooth alignment or spacing

• Chipped or cracked teeth

• Uneven teeth

• Abnormal spacing

How we place the Porcelain Veneers

We will reshape the tooth that’s receiving the veneer using a small handheld device known as a bur.

Next, we make an impression of the tooth that will be used to create the veneer. When the veneer is ready, we’ll bond it to your tooth and make any adjustments. 

What are the benefits of Porcelain Veneers?

Porcelain veneers have multiple benefits that make them a popular choice for smile restoration.

They Offer a Natural Appearance

Since porcelain veneers in Weehawken are custom created using a mold of your tooth, they look natural. No one will be able to tell that you have veneers. 

We Only Have to Remove a Small Amount of Tooth Enamel

Porcelain veneers require us to remove less enamel than other options for tooth restoration. We strive to remove as little enamel as possible because once it’s gone, you can’t replace it. Veneers require us to remove a small amount of enamel to ensure it looks natural. 

They’re Long-Lasting

When properly cared for, you can expect porcelain veneers to last anywhere from 10-30 years. Avoid activities that put excessive pressure on your veneers, like biting ice, chewing your fingernails, or using your teeth to open things.
