A Porcelain
Laminate Veneer is a thin layer of porcelain that is adhered to
the front surface of the tooth. Veneers are a quick way to
correct tooth color, shape and alignment.
Veneers can add
tooth length, width, color and esthetic shape. Veneers can
reshape your smile in as little as two appointments.
The
laboratory time required for the fabrication of a Porcelain
Laminate Veneer is approximately two weeks. Beautiful
temporaries are provided during the laboratory fabrication of
the permanent Veneers. |

Once the
permanent veneers are placed they become very strong and will
resist most of the forces placed upon them by a normal diet.
Porcelain has a great crushing strength, but poor tensile
strength. Therefore, you should avoid anything that will
tend to twist the laminate veneer.
Use your common sense -
opening pistachio nuts with your teeth, chewing on bones or
jelly apples is probably not a good idea. |
