Porcelain Dental Veneers in Minneapolis

What are veneers?

Veneers are one technique the dentist in cosmetic dentistry has for improving the appearance of teeth. They are a thin layer of porcelain — or tooth colored composit in the case of chairside veneers — that covers the front side of the tooth.

Value of veneers

Veneers provide a very effective means for for the dentist to improve the shape, color and size of teeth. In many cases, problems such as worn, chipped or discolored teeth, crooked teeth, or teeth with gaps between them, can be effectively treated with the application of veneers.

How veneers work

Veneers are made by the dentist first removing a thin layer of the tooth's enamel. This layer is then replaced with composite tooth colored material, or a porcelain overlay that bonds directly to the tooth after cementing.
