Porcelain Veneers

What are porcelain veneers?

Porcelain veneers are thin shells of ceramic porcelain that are permanently bonded directly to the front surfaces of prepared teeth. They can dramatically improve the appearance of teeth that are worn,discolored or fractured.

Placing custom veneers requires a high degree of technical skill as well as attention to cosmetic detail. Dr.Katz places veneers routinely, and designs each case individually to match and enhance characteristics already present in each patient's teeth.

Will they look like normal teeth?

When bonded to the teeth, the ultra-thin porcelain veneers are virtually undetectable and highly resistant to coffee, tea, or even cigarette stains. For strength and appearance, their resemblance to healthy, white tooth enamel is unsurpassed by other restorative options.

How durable are porcelain veneers?

With proper care, porcelain veneers will last for many, many years.

Dr.Katz will ensure that your veneers are crafted from the highest quality ceramic porcelain and are bonded with the most advanced and proven materials available.

Refraining from using your veneers as tools to open and cut things will prolong their life, and if accidental breakage or damage occurs, it is usually possible to replace only the veneer involved.
