Veneers are thin shells custom-designed to cover the front surface of your teeth to improve their appearance. Typically made from porcelain or composite resin materials, veneers can correct dental imperfections like gaps, discoloration, and chipped teeth.
Who Is a Good Candidate for Veneers?
While veneers can dramatically improve appearance, they may not be the best solution for everyone. Ideal veneer candidates have healthy teeth and gums, including healthy tooth enamel. People with a stable, aligned bite are also good candidates.
Individuals with poor oral health, such as gum disease or tooth decay, may not be suitable for veneers until these issues are treated. Also, those who clench or grind their teeth may damage the veneers, so they should discuss this with their Springfield, IL dentist, Dr. Ruggless. If someone has a severe misalignment, orthodontic treatment may be preferable over veneers to correct the issue.
