What can Porcelain Veneers Fix?


Porcelain veneers are used to repair cosmetic imperfections of the teeth. Porcelain veneers improve the appearance of teeth that are:

  • Gapped
  • Chipped
  • Unevenly sized
  • Unevenly shaped
  • Misshapen
  • Stained
  • Worn down
Veneers are not a treatment for unhealthy teeth, including decayed and severely fractured teeth. Certain structural tooth defects affecting appearance require a restorative treatment such as a tooth crown.

Some people have certain teeth that are much smaller than their other teeth. Porcelain veneers may be used to make these teeth appear more proportionate to surrounding teeth. Other people experience extreme wear of the teeth; in these cases, porcelain veneers are used to conceal the wear and create a new tooth edge. In many cases, patients experience a combination of various imperfections that can be corrected with porcelain veneers.

Some patients choose to receive a single veneer to improve a specific, undesirable tooth. Other patients receive multiple porcelain veneers as part of a complete smile makeover.  When used in a smile makeover, porcelain veneers create a uniform, symmetrical smile. Teeth will have a straighter appearance, creating teeth of the same length and shape.

If you live in southern Virginia, including the areas of Norfolk , Va Beach , Hampton and Newport News, find out if porcelain veneers can improve your teeth; please contact experienced Virginia cosmetic dentist Dr. Michael Folck to schedule a consultation.
