Porcelain veneers can give you the beautiful smile you have always dreamed of. Dental veneers can correct a wide range of cosmetic dental concerns leaving you with a bright, white, and beautiful smile. Having a beautiful smile can not only increase your confidence and quality of life, but it can help protect your health. Cosmetic dental concerns are often oral health concerns. Fox Lake, IL, cosmetic dentist Dr. Thomas Pendergast provides his patients with experienced and quality cosmetic dental care for the well-being of their teeth and gums.
Porcelain Veneers for Cosmetic Dental Concerns
Porcelain veneers can simulate the natural look and feel of your smile. Dr. Prendergast utilizes the latest in dental material and technology for realistic cosmetic dental restorations. Porcelain veneers are made from an ultra-thin ceramic that reflects light comparable to natural teeth. Veneers will blend into your natural smile making it difficult to impossible to tell them apart.
After a thorough oral health exam, Dr. Prendergast will discuss your treatment options with you. Your veneers will be custom designed and color matched to your natural smile for optimal results. A small layer of your teeth will be removed to allow space for your new veneers. The thin shell is then permanently bonded to your prepared teeth for a long-lasting and durable solution to many cosmetic dental concerns. With proper maintenance, dental veneers can last for many years.
Porcelain veneers are an effective cosmetic treatment for:
- Misshapen teeth
- Gap teeth
- Discolored teeth
- Repair chipped or cracked teeth
- Cosmetically straighten crooked teeth
Why Correct Cosmetic Concerns?
It is important to understand how minor cosmetic concerns, left untreated, could develop into complex oral health problems. Cracked and chipped teeth may not seem significant at first. However, these cosmetic concerns make your teeth more prone to infection or even eventual tooth loss, concerns that will require more advanced dental treatments.
Dr. Prendergast encourages patients to practice diligent preventive dental care. Keeping your teeth and gums clean and healthy through oral hygiene and regular visits to the dentist can help patients avoid the need for advanced dental care. Taking care of a minor cosmetic dental concern could save you time and money long term.
