A smile transformation with porcelain veneers
There are many different factors that may affect the appearance of your teeth. Every smile is unique, and a naturally perfect smile is incredibly unlikely to exist. Unless you have undergone cosmetic dental treatment, it is unlikely that your teeth will be perfectly aligned, symmetrical, evenly sized and white. You will have unique factors that affect the aesthetic appearance of your teeth.
You must make sure to attend dental exams on a regular basis in order to keep your teeth clean and healthy and prevent the development of decay or disease. If you have good dental health but are still unhappy with the appearance of your smile, you can speak to Dr Bobby Chhoker and find out about cosmetic dental treatment in Bondi Junction.
What are veneers?
If you want a stunning smile, then ask about veneers. Veneers are thin covers that can fit over the front surface of your teeth, and they are designed to enhance the colour, size and shape of your teeth. Veneers are a popular choice of cosmetic dental treatment, and there are two main types: porcelain veneers and composite resin veneers; they differ according to the material they are made of.
What are porcelain veneers?
Porcelain is a glass-like substance, also known as ceramic, and porcelain veneers are very thin shells that work in the same way as false fingernails. Porcelain veneers are the most natural in appearance; they are durable and the most attractive type of veneer. These veneers are usually manufactured individually by a master ceramic technician according to the exact measurements of your teeth.
Discreet correction or dramatic transformation?
The appearance of your veneers depends on what your preferences are. You may wish to have a veneer that will match your remaining teeth, or if you want to have a full set of veneers, then you can experiment and alter the appearance of your smile. Some patients want to transform their smiles completely, and in such cases, the patient could request a Hollywood smile makeover in which porcelain veneers are designed to be white, bright and stand out rather than blend in with your natural dentition. The appearance of your veneers will also depend on your dental requirements; therefore, Dr Bobby Chhoker will guide you to the proper type of veneer to make sure that it is the most suitable choice for you.
The majority of your tooth’s structure will remain intact, and veneering only requires very little of your teeth to be prepared to help attach the veneer firmly in place. With good oral hygiene and regular dental checkups, your veneers could typically last around 10 to 15 years. After an average of around two decades, your veneers may begin to chip or crack, and this is a sign that it is time to replace your veneers. Replacing veneers is similar to the initial procedure, and by speaking to Dr Bobby Chhoker, you will be able to find out more about the best way forward.
