A quality run can do so much good for a person, not just physically, but mentally as well. You can feel accomplished even after the most relaxed of days, or blow off steam from a stressful one. Time seems to stand still and all is right with the world for those few miles. Running has helped you stay fit for years, and you wish fixing your smile could be as simple and long-lasting. There so many different things wrong with your teeth, you don’t know how you could fix everything. Dr. J. Peter St. Clair and Dr. Leonard Strauss can give you that perfect, enduring smile with porcelain veneers in Rowley.

What They Do For You

Porcelain veneers are one of the most comprehensive ways you can improve your smile. They hold the distinction of being able to address a variety of cosmetic issues at once. Imperfections such as damaged, discolored, or misaligned teeth can easily be covered up. They can even seamlessly get rid of obvious gaps.  Unlike your normal teeth, the veneers are non-porous, making them practically stain-proof.

Not only do they make your smile more beautiful and radiant, they also strengthen your teeth, as the porcelain used is a strong and durable material. Porcelain veneers are one of the finest ways for you to get a flawless smile.

What Are Porcelain Veneers?

Porcelain veneers are actually thin ceramic shells that are bonded to the front of your teeth in order to enhance their appearance and mask imperfections. They are held in place using a composite resin. This resin keeps them securely in place and gives you a fit you can trust. It is also custom colored so that it blends in with the rest of your teeth.

What is the Procedure Like?

Almost everyone is a good candidate for porcelain veneers, and you can get them in as little as two visits. It starts with Dr. St. Clair or Dr. Strauss gently removing a tiny portion of your enamel in order to create room for your veneers. They will then take an impression of your teeth and send it to a dental lab to fabricate your veneers.

The second visit is when they will place them on your teeth and make any adjustments if necessary. You will wear a set of temporary veneers while your real ones are being made. The entire procedure is quick, painless, and the result is instant.

The longevity of your veneers depends entirely on the health of your underlying teeth and gums, so consistent oral hygiene is paramount. All you need to do is brush and floss regularly to keep your veneers looking stunning for up to 20 years.

Are They Right For Me?

The only way to figure out if porcelain veneers are right for you is to come see your cosmetic dentist in Rowley. Veneers are highly customizable, so this consultation will also help you figure out the type of result you are looking for. You can get a perfect smile that lasts for decades, so go ahead and make an appointment with us today.
