Porcelain Veneers - Realize the Full Potential of Your Smile
Whether you wish to conceal a cosmetic flaw, fill a small gap, or simply add a luminous new dimension to your smile, porcelain veneers are often the cornerstones of a world-class smile transformation. Among the most popular and effective options for restoring damaged, misshapen, or discolored teeth, veneers are thin but highly durable sheets of porcelain that are bonded to the front surfaces of teeth to cover stains, chips, and other imperfections. At our practice in Bayside, we proudly offer the most finely crafted porcelain veneers to our Flushing, Whitestone, and other Queens-area patients. Dr. Marianna Knop and Dr. Andrew Ilyabayev will personally supervise the creation of your porcelain veneers to ensure that they ideally complement the size, color, texture, and shape of your surrounding natural teeth.
Benefits of Porcelain Veneers
One of the primary benefits of porcelain veneers is their extremely natural appearance. Like natural tooth enamel, porcelain is translucent; that is, light is able to pass through the veneer to the tooth rather than reflecting off the surface of the veneer. This gives porcelain veneers a subtle radiance that will draw attention to your stunning new smile, not on the dental work you undertook to achieve that smile. In addition to being extremely natural looking, porcelain veneers can also be used to correct a variety of orthodontic problems. Indeed, veneers are so effective in resolving minor alignment problems that many patients use them as a form of "instant orthodontics." Resilient, strong, and highly resistant to staining, porcelain veneers can last for many years with proper care.
Placement of Your Porcelain Veneers
The procedure involved in placing porcelain veneers is relatively quick and virtually painless. A small amount of enamel will be removed from the surfaces of the teeth in order to accommodate the width of the veneers, which will be crafted according to the precise specifications set forth by Dr. Knop or Dr. Ilyabayev. Once the porcelain veneers are ready to be placed, one of our esteemed dentists will bond them to the surfaces of your teeth using a strong dental adhesive that will harden upon exposure to a visible light beam. The veneers will fit comfortably and unobtrusively in your mouth, and your immaculate smile will be ready to reveal to your friends, family, and co-workers.
