Get porcelain veneers and smile!
When
teeth require significant changes in their shape or contour, veneers may
be the answer. By placing veneers, small or misshapen teeth can be
built up to regain a more natural appearance, spaces between teeth can
be closed by making the teeth wider and teeth that are too short can be
lengthened.
The veneer is actually a thin piece of porcelain similar in size to a fingernail. Once it is
"bonded" onto the tooth it becomes extremely strong. Dr. Hlas
or Dr. Shirazi also blends
the veneer in with the remaining tooth structure so
that it is unnoticeable to the naked-eye. Once in place, it looks, feels, and functions just like a
regular tooth.
At Altoona Dental Clinic we can use porcelain veneers to change the shape and color of a single tooth or if necessary,
revamp an entire smile.
Porcelain veneers can also be used to correct teeth that have been worn
from clenching and grinding.
Please call us at (515) 967-4211 for consultation. You may ask Dr. Hlas,
Dr. Shirazi, or any of
our professional team questions you have about
the benefits of porcelain veneers.
