Porcelain Veneers

Now it's easier than ever to have great looking teeth and a fabulous smile through an exciting dental technique called porcelain laminate veneers!

The primary goal of our dental practice is to restore teeth to their normal form, beauty and proper function. We use porcelain veneers to restore teeth that have been disfigured by decay, breakage, abrasion, imperfect development, malocclusion, poor alignment, or discoloration

Porcelain veneers are formed porcelain shells that create a new front surface to a tooth to replace the enamel on that tooth. They provide beauty and strength equaling that of your original tooth structure. Because of their strength and resistance to chewing stress, porcelain veneers are functionally superior and are quite durable. Since porcelain is less porous than enamel, veneers are often more stain resistant than natural teeth.

Having a tooth veneered at our Yorktown Heights, NY office is a single procedure requiring just two appointments. Veneers are affixed directly to your teeth, generally without the need for anesthesia. In no time at all, your smile is quickly, comfortably and beautifully transformed, often without any further treatment.

What are porcelain veneers?

Porcelain veneers are thin shells of ceramic that bond directly to the front surfaces of the teeth. They are an ideal choice for improving your smile and have become increasingly popular due to their simplicity and versatility.

Placing custom veneers requires a high degree of technical skill as well as attention to cosmetic detail. Our Yorktown Heights, New York office place veneers routinely, and design each case individually to match and enhance the characteristics of each patient's smile.

Will they look like normal teeth?

When bonded to the teeth, the ultra-thin porcelain veneers are virtually undetectable and highly resistant to coffee, tea, or even cigarette stains. For strength and appearance, their resemblance to healthy, white tooth enamel is unsurpassed by other restorative options.

How durable are porcelain veneers?

With proper care, porcelain veneers will brighten your smile for well over a decade.
