5 Cosmetic Flaws that Can Be Improved Using Veneers

When you meet someone for the first time, you probably want to leave a good impression. However, if you have dental flaws you won’t want them to be the only thing that they remember. Having damaged, crooked, or stained teeth can leave you feeling self-conscious.  

At Harley Private Dental, we understand the importance of feeling good about your smile, to help with this, we have a range of treatment options that deal with all kinds of dental issues. One of these options is veneers.

Dental veneers are small porcelain or ceramic shells that are applied to your teeth. Once in place, you’d never be able to tell the difference between them and your natural teeth. But what can they be used for?

Here are five cosmetic flaws that can be effortlessly improved using dental veneers.

1. Covering Cracked or Chipped Teeth

If you have visible cracks or chips in your teeth from an injury, general wear on your teeth, or as the result of decay, dental veneers can remedy these. 

Your veneers will perfectly colour-match your natural teeth, and the material used even has a similar surface shine.

2. Reshape Misshapen Teeth

Maybe your teeth have always been misshapen, or perhaps an accident has left them this way. Whatever the cause, veneers will help create a more uniform appearance. 

Before applying your veneers, we’ll take a thin layer of enamel off your teeth. This is done to ensure the veneer sits perfectly on your teeth and matches the size and appearance of its neighbours.

3.  Correct Slight Tooth Misalignment

Many people think that the only way of dealing with crooked teeth is to wear a brace or aligners for months or years. There is an easier, more-immediate way; veneers.

Slight misalignments can easily be addressed by placing custom-made veneers onto your teeth. While veneers won’t actually straighten your teeth, they’ll help make minor misalignments at least appear straighter.

4.  Improve the Appearance of Gappy Teeth

If your teeth are spaced slightly apart from each other, it can leave gaps. These gaps can become a haven for trapped food debris and bacteria, leaving you open to tooth decay if extra care isn’t taken. 

Again, problems with the positioning of your teeth such as addressing gaps usually require orthodontic treatment. Because veneers are customisable we can cover any gaps giving the appearance of evenly distributed teeth.

5.  Make Stained Teeth Sparkle Once More

Discoloured teeth can leave you embarrassed to properly smile. If you’re constantly worrying about what other people may think about the colour of your teeth, it can be hard to relax. 

Stained teeth can be a thing of the past without the need for whitening treatment. If you have veneers, you’ll enjoy a brighter, whiter smile, instantly.
