Good Cosmetic Dentistry is Life Changing

Patients get a boost of self-esteem and confidence with a new smile. In some cases, it can be simple like having us make custom trays for bleaching for whiter teeth or replacing some discolored fillings or silver fillings. The most frequent request is more dramatic which is why you see three before and after cases below for porcelain veneers. Porcelain veneers predictably change the color and shape of teeth giving patients confidence with their smile. Also, patients will sometimes ask about composite veneers or a complete white smile makeover which follow the porcelain veneer examples.

Composite Veneers

Unsure about undergoing treatment with porcelain veneers? Composite veneers are an alternative that can help you decide if a permanent enhancement is what you want. In a single appointment, composite veneers provide instance change, helping you achieve a consistent color, shape, and size in the appearance of your front teeth. Dr. Cummings applies a custom-shaded composite resin on the front surfaces of the teeth to create an appearance of symmetry and health. A special curing light hardens the resin in minutes. Finally, Dr. Cummings polishes the resin to achieve a beautiful, natural-looking appearance. Composite veneers require no alteration of your teeth and can be removed at a later date if you choose.

It is not uncommon to convert composite veneers to porcelain veneers. This woman had her composite veneers for 5 years and was tired of the discoloration.
