Always wanted that perfect Hollywood smile? If you have gaps in your teeth, chips, cracks, or if they're crooked, there's no reason whatsoever that you can't have a perfectly straight teeth, and a nice white smile. No not braces... this is where porcelain veneers come in.

So what are porcelain veneers? They're very thin ceramic "teeth", which bond to and cover your actual existing teeth. They're not like crowns, where invasive surgery is required... very little change in the tooth is actually required to fit a veneer to it. A veneer can easily fix any cosmetic dental issues you may have, and are also durable and stain resistant (but you still have to brush them!).

In contrast to braces, porcelain veneers can very quickly fix any gaps you have in your teeth. It will take several hours, as opposed to possibly months, or even years with braces. Additionally, teeth which may be yellow, stained, chipper, cracked, or simply worn, are completely renewed with the placement of veneers. The veneer with naturally mask any previous imperfections.

Unfortunately porcelain veneers are more expensive that simple tooth bonding (another procedure you may opt for to correct similar issues). However, a veneer will last you much longer, as well as being more resistant to stains. Ensure you speak to your dentist about which option works for you if you're looking to have any cosmetic procedures done to your teeth. Although porcelain veneers are an ideal solution to many problems, they may not fit into everybody's budget.
