Porcelain Veneers & Crowns
If you have gaps between your teeth, teeth that are stained, badly shaped, or crooked, you can achieve a beautiful smile simply and quickly with porcelain veneers.
Porcelain Veneers
Porcelain veneers are thin shells of ceramic that bond directly to the front and top surfaces of the teeth. When bonded to the teeth, the ultra-thin porcelain veneers are virtually undetectable and highly resistant to coffee, tea, or even cigarette stains. Their resemblance to healthy, white tooth enamel is unsurpassed by other restorative options.
Vista Dorada Dental uses only the highest grade porcelain for your veneers. You will be ready to show off your new smile after only 2 visits, and with proper care, your smile will continue to be amazing for well over a decade.
Veneers have a few advantages over crowns—much less tooth material is removed and the procedure is generally less uncomfortable. Veneers are also recommended over crowns for teeth that have large fillings or little tooth structure.
Crowns
Porcelains crowns are an extremely reliable technique for repairing the most severe dental problems caused by accidents, diseases, and wear and tear. Crowns can be used to:
Permanently repair missing teeth, giving the patient a complete smile and a functional bite
Relieve pain some people may feel from hairline cracks in the chewing part of back teeth
Cover older front-teeth fillings that have weakened the teeth or caused appearance problems and where veneers are not suitable
Prevent breakage in teeth with root canal fillings
CEREC
Dr. McLaws is an expert at using the CEREC procedure for crowns and other restorative treatments. With CEREC, you won’t have to have a mold taken or come back for a second visit. Dr. McLaws will take a digital image of your tooth and use CEREC software to mill a crown that matches your original tooth color right in the office within 20-30 minutes. In just one day you’ll have a crown that looks and feels just like your natural teeth and is undetectable by others.
