Why is Porcelain Used for Dental Veneers?

Porcelain is an ideal material for dental veneers for a number of reasons, including its durability, versatility and resemblance to your natural teeth.

Bergen County, New Jersey, cosmetic dentist Dr. Howard Perlmutter of Dumont Cosmetic Dental can use porcelain veneers to correct a wide range of common cosmetic dental problems including:

• Stained teeth
• Chipped or cracked teeth
• Unevenly spaced teeth
• Misshaped teeth

In addition to their numerous applications, porcelain veneers are custom crafted to meet your unique needs and aesthetic goals. Each porcelain veneer is individually crafted to provide you with a seamless smile. Porcelain veneers can also be color tinted to ensure you smile is uniformly bright.

When bonded to the surfaces of your teeth, porcelain veneers are strong and durable. Porcelain is also resistant to staining, and porcelain veneers are easy to clean with a good dental hygiene routine that includes brushing at least twice a day and flossing carefully between your veneer-protected teeth at least once a day following brushing.
