Do your teeth feel pitted or not so smooth when you run your tongue across the smile line? Are they starting to look worn and lackluster in holiday photos? Do you miss that youthful grin?

Porcelain veneers may be the solution!

These beautiful shells of ceramic can help with the following:

  • Short and worn teeth
  • Pitted or cracked teeth
  • Discolored or stained teeth
  • Gummy smiles
  • Uneven midline
  • Slightly crooked teeth
  • Misshapen teeth

In other words, porcelain veneers in Kauai can transform your smile, changing the look and feel of your teeth.  

About Porcelain Veneers

Porcelain veneers are shells of ceramic custom-designed to look natural in your mouth. The dentist cements the veneers across the forward-facing teeth you’d like to restore. With veneers, you can choose to treat one or several teeth. It’s all about you and your goals.

The first step is meeting with the dentist to learn whether veneers suit your aesthetic goals. If you choose veneers, we remove some enamel to ensure a non-bulky and natural-looking finish.

Enamel removal makes porcelain veneers permanent. If you lose one, it must be replaced to protect the underlying tooth structure. Fortunately, veneers are durable and can last a decade or longer with regular dental care and meaningful oral hygiene.

How Porcelain Veneers in Kauai Change Your Smile

Porcelain is like healthy enamel. It simply looks and feels fantastic compared to damaged and worn teeth. In fact, many celebrities use veneers to keep their smiles bright, shiny, and symmetrical.

In addition to enhancing your smile, dental veneers cover cracks and chips that, when not restored, can worsen over time. In this capacity, veneers can be thought of as cosmetic restorations.

Finally, porcelain veneers look natural. No one will guess you’ve had cosmetic dentistry. They’ll only see a gorgeous smile.
