Thankfully, you have more options than ever before to revamp your pearly whites. Veneers rank among the most popular cosmetic procedures because they can fix many issues using a minimally invasive treatment. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.taylorchoicedental.com\/veneers.html\">Veneers<\/a> can be made from porcelain or composite. Both have their advantages, but which is the best? Here\u2019s how to choose the right material for your needs.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Porcelain Veneers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A porcelain veneer is a thin shell that covers the front side of a tooth. This improves its color, shape, and size. Bonding veneers to the teeth that show when your smile can fix several issues at once, like chips, stains, and gaps. Your results can last for 10 years or longer, but you must sacrifice a small amount of enamel.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Your dentist must etch the surfaces of your teeth to ensure your veneers sit flush. This doesn\u2019t harm your teeth; however, your enamel will not grow back if your veneers are removed.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although veneers cost more than other procedures, they can be the most affordable because they eliminate the need for multiple treatments. You\u2019ll enjoy quick, lasting results in just 2 appointments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Composite Veneers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Composite veneers are also known as bonded veneers. They are made from a composite resin that covers the surface of a tooth. The resin is shaded to the color of enamel to blend in. It offers both cosmetic and restorative benefits. Composite veneers are a great option to treat tooth decay, exposed tooth roots, chips, and cracks.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unlike porcelain veneers, composite doesn\u2019t require your teeth to be altered, making it less invasive. Depending on the number of teeth you\u2019re treating, the procedure can take 30 to 90 minutes. Your dazzling new smile can last for 5 to 15 years before needing to be replaced.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Which Material is the Best?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Every mouth and situation differs. Only a cosmetic dentist can determine the right material for you. They\u2019ll examine your mouth and learn more about your goals to create a personalized treatment plan. No matter the method, you\u2019ll enjoy natural-looking results that last. You can achieve a stunning smile to be proud of using the latest solutions in dentistry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>About Dr. Shruti Sharma<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.taylorchoicedental.com\/dr-shruti-sharma.html\">Dr. Sharma<\/a> earned her dental degree at the University of Buffalo School of Dental Medicine and has regularly continued her education in all aspects of dentistry, including endodontics and cosmetics.
