Veneers are one of the hottest cosmetic treatment options around, and millions of patients have turned toward them to achieve the smile they’ve always dreamed of. These incredible coverings can be used to correct all sorts of minor aesthetic issues, and they also come with several awesome benefits! Keep reading to learn a little more about five of these notable advantages.
1. They Provide Beautiful, Natural-Looking Results
Perhaps the top reason why veneers are so sought after is their beauty; whether it’s from coffee, soda, or wine, veneers can reverse the effects of staining, as well as address teeth that have become chipped or cracked. This is because they’re crafted from a special type of porcelain that’s notably durable and resilient. Since this material is nonporous and better able to withstand fluids (unlike your enamel), veneers are not able to get stained as easily as your teeth. They’re also customized specifically to the dimensions of your smile for a finished, natural look.
2. The Process for Receiving Them Is Quick & Easy
Veneers can instantly improve your smile as soon as they’re bonded. And better yet, compared to other procedures, receiving porcelain veneers is minimally invasive and nothing you need to worry about! Your dentist will have to remove a small amount of enamel from the front surface of your teeth (about 5mm or less), but this helps them retain a stronger bond in the long run.
3. They Aren’t Difficult to Maintain
With proper care, veneers are able to remain shiny and resilient for 10 or more years! However, this also depends on your willingness to take care of them—which fortunately isn’t difficult at all! You simply need to brush, floss, and care for them as you would your natural teeth.
4. They’re Cost-Effective
In some cases, it’s much more cost-effective to use veneers to address severely discolored or damaged teeth, rather than undergoing multiple corrective procedures. So if you’re concerned about the upfront cost of veneers, you should view them as an investment in your smile for the foreseeable future.
5. They Boost Your Self-Esteem
Veneers massively boost your confidence—and you can’t put a price on that! Your smile will be the first thing that people notice about you, and they won’t even be able to tell that you’ve received veneers. This will help you to confidently navigate social situations and can even translate into professional success.
If you’re on the fence about getting veneers to upgrade your smile, these five benefits should sway you toward committing to the treatment and a brighter and whiter future smile!
