Though we face many daily challenges as Australians, we have a well-earned reputation for taking it all in stride. In fact, a recent survey suggests half of us smile to show friendliness, while two in five do it to be polite.
Yet some of us may hesitate to smile because we worry others might judge us for not having perfect teeth. When asked, those surveyed cited that the most common reason for their reluctance is discolouration or stains on their most visible teeth.
At Arthur Street Dental, we understand you want to put your best smile forward, so we provide numerous cosmetic dental procedures. But to eliminate tooth stains, the most glamorous and effective method is through porcelain dental veneers. Here are four reasons to consider veneers in Coffs Harbour. NSW.
#1 – Veneers Provide Exceptional Beauty
When you select a dental veneer, Dr Ward takes precision impressions of your tooth surface and seeks the ideal colour match. Then, a high-quality dental lab creates your veneer from engineered porcelain.
This material is unmatched in its resemblance to natural tooth enamel. But the veneer process introduces compounds to the porcelain, giving it that unmistakable sparkle. It's no wonder that dental veneers are the preferred choice of celebrities and influencers alike.
#2 – Tooth Restorations with Excellent Durability
Another aspect of porcelain veneers is their strength and lifespan. Because they are made under stringent lab conditions, the resulting ceramic restoration is a single piece that nestles into your tooth surface.
With proper care, your dental veneer may last ten to fifteen years or even longer.
#3 – Custom Created and Fitted Veneers
Because we adhere your veneer to front-facing tooth surfaces, we want them to fit seamlessly into your smile. Dr Ward will remove a small layer of tooth enamel to accomplish this. But with new techniques, we can remove a smaller amount of tooth material to preserve as much natural tooth as possible.
#4 – Dental Veneers Resist Stains and Decay
Finally, the strength and durability of your veneer are complimented by the fact that they also resist tooth decay. This is due to the density of porcelain and the highly smooth surface of its outer layers. Without pits and rough spots to allow plaque-causing bacteria to accumulate, these threats just rinse away. These smooth surfaces also help your veneer resist stains so it won't lose its lustre like your natural teeth or other composite restorations.
