The appearance of your teeth can play an important role in your self-confidence. After all, your smile is the first thing that many people notice about you, and your smile and expressions are your strongest forms of nonverbal communication. Â If you have stains on your teeth or other minor cosmetic defects that alter the appearance of your smile, our dentists, Drs. Scott and Straw might recommend dental veneers or a dental crown.
Veneers are created from a special type of dental grade porcelain that can be shaded to look like your natural tooth enamel. Veneers are resistant to dental staining, but they can be stained over time.
A dental crown restoration involves our dentist examining your teeth. If a tooth has been compromised by an old dental filling, a significant fracture or a significant physical defect, the dentist might recommend a crown. A crown replaces the tooth’s original enamel layer with dental grade porcelain or another sturdy material. Once the necessary dental work has been prepared in a dental lab, they will install it with a strong dental adhesive.
