Dental veneers are a popular cosmetic dentistry solution that can dramatically enhance the appearance of your smile. These thin, custom-made shells are designed to cover the front surface of your teeth, effectively improving their color, shape, size or length. At Miami Dental Community, Dr. Filiberto Herdocia specialize in crafting high-quality veneers that blend seamlessly with your natural teeth, giving you a beautiful and confident smile.
Veneers are an excellent option for addressing a variety of aesthetic concerns, including:
- Discoloration: Veneers can cover stains or discoloration that do not respond to traditional whitening treatments.
- Chips and Cracks: Minor imperfections like chips or cracks can be concealed, restoring the tooth’s natural appearance.
- Gaps and Misalignment: Veneers can close small gaps between teeth and create a more uniform, aligned smile.
- Worn or Uneven Teeth: Veneers can lengthen teeth that have been worn down or are uneven, creating a balanced look.
The process of getting veneers typically involves two appointments. During the first visit, we will prepare your teeth by removing a small amount of enamel and taking impressions. These impressions are used to create your custom veneers. At the second appointment, the veneers are carefully bonded to your teeth, resulting in an immediate transformation.
