Who Can Benefit from Porcelain Veneers?

Benefit From Porcelain Veneers in Los Angeles, CA

At Downtown Dental, we focus on providing patients with a beautiful smile through cosmetic dentistry. We offer several solutions to dental problems, and one of our most requested treatments includes the porcelain veneer procedure. Los Angeles dentist Dr. Mungcal has been offering porcelain veneers for over 20 years and finds that they can benefit many patients in particular dental situations. Who can benefit from porcelain veneers? Here are just a few cases in which porcelain veneers can help a patient of Downtown Dental:

Chipped and broken teeth

Patients can use porcelain veneers to cover their teeth to change the appearance of chipped, broken, or cracked front teeth. The veneer is bonded to the front, transforming that imperfect tooth.
Discoloration and stains

While many patients will consider teeth whitening and bleaching to address stained and discolored teeth, sometimes it may not remove the discoloration. This can happen if the stains are deep and internal. When teeth do not respond to teeth-whitening solutions, porcelain veneers can cover up these imperfections.
Crooked and misaligned teeth

While many know that orthodontics can help align teeth into more desired positions, sometimes the cost to align just a few crooked teeth may be outside of one’s realistic expectations and financial reach. However, veneers can be bonded to the front of a tooth to give it the appearance of straight alignment. This often makes much more sense than undergoing months of orthodontic treatment to realign a single tooth.
Smile makeovers

Patients who want a completely new smile may find that porcelain veneers are the best way to accomplish this. Veneers can be made in a new shape, size, and color and used to change all the teeth near the front of the mouth, resulting in a total smile makeover. Patients who have lived with a smile that has hurt their self-confidence and caused embarrassment may be at a point where they have the resources to obtain that perfect smile. Veneers can make that happen!

Many adults find that porcelain veneers are a versatile, amazing cosmetic restoration that can allow them to rejuvenate the way their teeth look and address the imperfections in their smiles. They are accessible for most patients and can be a life-changing opportunity.

If you are considering porcelain veneers, or want to learn more about your cosmetic restoration options, call Dr. Mungcal of Downtown Dental today at 213-863-9464 to schedule a consultation.
