There are many different types of dental procedures that people will be getting on a regular basis. Like that of dentures or fillings, dental veneers are another very common dental procedure that many people will have done in their lifetime.
When it comes to dental veneers, Lecanto residents should know that they are a great thing to have for many specific dental issues. The largest group of issues that dental veneers can help with are those that are related to cosmetic issues. Cosmetic issues are lumped together because addressing them doesn’t necessarily improve the oral health of a person’s mouth, but there are a few exceptions.
Not everyone is aware of the specific cosmetic issues that dental veneers can help with, and today we will be discussing some of the issues that veneers will help with visually.
Serious Staining Issues Can be Corrected
Dental veneers are not explicitly designed to go over stained teeth to make them look bright and white, but this is often what happens when correcting other types of cosmetic issues with dental veneers. Lecanto residents should know that some stains are so strong that not even traditional whitening methods can correct these issues.
In these instances, a dental professional may recommend their patient get dental veneers if they are struggling with these serious staining issues.
Dental veneers will go over the top of an existing tooth. Technically it is not the staining issue, but it is covering it up, so it looks as though it is no longer there.
Veneers Correcting Chipped or Broken Teeth
Dental veneers can help with fixing chipped or broken teeth, regardless of how bad the break truly is. Some teeth that get broken can be extremely painful, like those in the back of the mouth used for chewing. Others can just be cosmetic issues, which is common with front teeth.
Eating and drinking with a broken or chipped tooth can be extremely challenging for some individuals, and one of the best ways is to cover up the problem tooth with a strong dental veneer. Lecanto residents should know that chips and cracks are not the same issue, but they can both equally be helped by dental veneers.
For many people dealing with chipped or broken teeth, getting dental veneers is a good way to bring back some function to these areas of their mouth without going through with getting false teeth like dental bridges or dentures.
