Cons Of Veneers

Are you unhappy with your smile? Do you look in the mirror and imagine yourself with a beautiful, healthy smile that you used to have? You can reclaim that. But weighing your options on what restorative process is right for your smile is important prior to jumping in. Veneers are a thin piece of porcelain that is placed on the outer layer of your teeth. They cover your existing teeth and help to restore your smile. While there are tons of positives to making the choice to get veneers there are a few negatives that you should be aware of prior to making this choice says, Dr. Anna Lee.

Dental veneers are more costly than standard fillings because they require the dentist to evaluate your smile, place material on each of your teeth that is shaped correctly and fits properly in your mouth. The cost of veneers depends on multiple aspects and can be determined once you and Dr. Lee evaluate your smile needs.

They are not repairable if they chip or crack, and if not done correctly veneers can make your teeth look large and unnatural. If you have chipped or cracked a veneer contact the dentist immediately, they may be able to just reapply the porcelain if it is bonding that has just come off. Otherwise, you may need to have a new veneer made for that tooth.

If you are struggling with your smile, talk to Dr. Anna Lee and her team about the possibility of veneers. If you have any questions about treatment options of broken, fractured or chipped teeth, please call Dr. Anna Lee at 626-335-5114 for a complimentary examination.
