What wears out your teeth and how dental veneers can help fix them
Everyone wants the perfect “million dollar smile” that almost all movie stars seem to possess. This dream smile may not be too far away from your reach. In today’s extremely “appearance conscious” world most people can’t help but be concerned about the quality of their smiles.
Veneers are unique dental innovations that have offered solutions to several dental problems. Most people seem to associate the term “veneers” with cosmetic dentistry alone. However, this is a misconception. Veneers are also used in the more “corrective” areas of the dentistry. Veneers may be used to reduce the effects of wear and tear on teeth. In fact; veneers are also used to fill gaps, to help align teeth and even where braces have not been deemed suitable.
Teeth are prone to wear and tear just like any other part of a person’s body. What’s more, your teeth are subjected to wear and tear on a daily basis. Food acids and stress that results from actions such as the biting and grinding of teeth are prone to wear down teeth. Wear and tear can cause pits and small holes in teeth. Teeth may also get chipped or discolored due to the effects of wear and tear. Wear and tear can also eventually cause the teeth to get misaligned. All this can result in a variety of problems including the increased sensitivity of teeth. Having a “less than perfect” smile can also cause problems that arise as a result of decreased self-confidence. This is where veneers can help. Porcelain veneers will be able to help reduce the effects of wear and tear and help you attain that perfect smile.
To put it simply, porcelain veneers are thin layers of porcelain that are fixed on to teeth using special bonding agents; much in the way that false nails may be fixed on to real ones. Porcelain veneers have many “glass like” properties. These properties ensure that veneers are extremely stain resistant and durable. In fact, veneers that have been well-maintained can last as long as three decades. The care of veneered teeth however, is similar to the care of non-veneered teeth; simply flossing and brushing on a regular basis should suffice. Porcelain veneers are also able to reflect light in a manner similar to that of tooth enamel. Thus, porcelain veneers also have an extremely realistic appearance.
