Corona Del Mar & Newport Beach Veneers and More at Ivory Dental Boutique
If you have misshapen, discolored, misaligned, or chipped teeth, it’s natural to feel self-conscious about your smile. Fortunately, cosmetic dentistry is a great way to transform your smile without pain or discomfort using the latest techniques and treatments. In , cosmetic dentist Dr. Cole Younger offers minimally invasive porcelain and composite veneers as a cosmetic restoration method at our Corona Del Mar practice.
What Are Veneers and How Can They Change My Smile?
Porcelain or composite veneers are thin coverings that are placed over the visible surface of each tooth. They look just like natural teeth and can be customized to match your natural smile while still improving its appearance. Porcelain dental veneers look and feel just like your natural teeth but can correct or mask concerns like cracks, discoloration, and misalignment. The best part is that veneers can last for ten to twenty years or more with the right care and guidance from your dentist.
What Do Cosmetic Dentists Do?
Cosmetic dentists can perform treatments and recommend restorative options to help improve the appearance of your smile. Cosmetic dentists usually also have knowledge in general dentistry so that they can ensure your treatment is in line with good oral health. Cosmetic dentists often have a good eye for your smile and the way it harmonizes with your unique face and features, meaning a cosmetic dentist can help your smile look great as well as remain healthy.
At Ivory Dental Boutique, we’ll make sure you can achieve your ideal smile with our best cosmetic treatments and can give an experienced, professional recommendation on your best options for a flattering, radiant smile. Then, we’ll ensure a successful and comfortable treatment process throughout.
Types of Veneers
Composite Veneers
Composite veneers are made from a composite resin material that is applied to the teeth in small increments and often with little to no drilling. Composite veneers are a minimally invasive way to achieve your aesthetic goals and often are a bit less costly than lab-fabricated ceramic veneers. Composite veneers can be completed in one appointment to our Corona Del Mar office.
Porcelain Veneers
Porcelain veneers are a very durable alternative to composite veneers and provide the highest level of aesthetics. They can be made of varying ceramics such as feldspathic porcelain (mostly aesthetic), Emax (lithium disilicate), and Zirconia (known for its extraordinary strength). They provide the highest level of luster and the ability to blend seamlessly with remaining teeth.
Porcelain veneers do not stain and are as close in strength to natural tooth enamel. Porcelain veneers require multiple appointments and are custom fabricated by our world-renowned ceramists.
