Transform Your Smile with Porcelain Veneers

Among the most transformative treatments in cosmetic dentistry, porcelain veneers are the foundation of many smile makeovers. At the Fort Lauderdale and Boca Raton area practice of Manon Bourque-Hutchison, D.D.S., only the highest-grade porcelain is used to craft veneers that perfectly complement the size, shape, texture, and color of surrounding natural teeth. Once the custom veneers are bonded to the front surfaces of aesthetically damaged teeth, most patients emerge with renewed confidence in their stunning new smiles.

Porcelain veneers do not merely conceal cracks, chips, discoloration, and gaps between teeth; rather, they dramatically re-create the smile while looking entirely natural. This natural appearance is due to the fact that porcelain mimics the light-reflecting properties of tooth enamel. Like enamel, porcelain is translucent; this means that it allows some light to pass through its surface rather than simply reflecting it. Porcelain is also highly stain resistant; over the decade or so that most veneers last, they will remain white and radiant with proper dental care.

For many patients, porcelain veneers are just one step toward achieving the smile they desire. Veneers can be applied to a single tooth or several, depending on the needs and goals of the individual patient. Remaining teeth can be treated with a variety of cosmetic and restorative dentistry options, including Zoom! ® teeth whitening, dental crowns (which can be crafted and placed in a single visit, thanks to CEREC® technology), and tooth-colored fillings. Missing teeth can be replaced by dental implants to complete the smile makeover.
