Men and women increasingly are choosing to have their smiles perfected with
cosmetic dentistry in Cape Coral, Florida. One treatment involves the filing away of a small amount of tooth enamel to allow for the placement of porcelain veneers. Veneers brighten the smile while also making the size and shape of the teeth consistent and attractive.
A Brief History
Veneers have been used for decades, although originally, they were mainly chosen as cosmetic improvements for movie stars. Judy Garland, for instance, had veneers placed before she starred in The Wizard of Oz. Many celebrities throughout the years since then have also opted for veneers; before-and-after pictures are easily found online. Today, anyone who wants to schedule Cosmetic Dentistry in Cape Coral, Florida, can have his or her smile improved significantly.
Transforming Appearance
When people have smiles with noticeable problems, veneers can truly transform their appearance. Veneers completely hide discoloration that cannot be resolved with whitening. One reason this occurs is when a youngster takes tetracycline antibiotics that cause yellowing of the adult teeth developing behind the baby teeth.
Veneers can cover a gap between front teeth. If the front teeth are unusually long compared with teeth to the side, the side teeth can be lengthened with veneers. A veneer also can mask a chipped tooth. They not only make the person look more attractive but healthier too.
Customization
Porcelain veneers are customized to achieve the results the patient wants. They can be placed by Deborah Ruddell D.D.S., P.A. after prospective patients read information about this dentist at ruddelldental.com.
