Dental Veneers

White pearl like teeth add to the beauty of every individual. However, if these are not perfectly shaped, it can look odd. Invisalign, an alternative to metal braces can be of immense help in straightening your teeth. This can be done with virtually invisible and custom-molded clear aligners. The advancement in technology has made it possible to have straight teeth without any hassles for braces. Unlike braces, you can also brush and eat normally as they can easily be removed. Invisalign is therefore a nice substitute made available for metal braces. You can notice quick results with these removable, clear aligners within six months or a year, to give you a pristine smile you have always been yearning for. However, the aligners will have to be changed after every two weeks, but the end result is worth the trouble.

Besides, if it is only your front teeth that pose a problem, then veneers can be a great solution to fix them. It is an ultimate alternative available than the conventional crowns. It can give you a perfect smile by closing the spaces that exist between teeth, chipped teeth or mask broken discolored teeth or whiten stained teeth.

Veneers are thin, semi-translucent shells which are bonded at the anterior of your front teeth. The thickness of these veneers range from around 0.3mm to 0.5mm and are quite strong as they are bound to the teeth. There are several advantages that are enjoyed with veneers which are not available in crowns. There is no massive grinding of the tooth structure required in veneers, which is done by caps. There is also no “dark line” which is visible in old front caps. Light is also transmitted in a better way in veneers that gives them a translucent natural look.
