The First Thing People Notice About You: Your Smile

As the saying goes, “You never get a second chance to make a first impression.” And studies show what we notice first about someone is their smile!  In a world where a confident and appealing smile can open doors, porcelain veneers emerge as a game-changer. At Advances in Dentistry, we understand the significance of a captivating smile and tailor our approach to not just enhance teeth but also transform lives.

Our mission is to create smiles that radiate positivity, boost self-esteem and leave a lasting impression.

What Are Porcelain Veneers?

Porcelain veneers are beautiful, custom-made, thin “shells” that are meticulously crafted to cover the front surface of your teeth. These shells are bonded to your natural teeth, effectively transforming their appearance. Think of a veneered piece of furniture. A beautiful thin layer of nice wood is bonded to the underlying wood structure to give it a better look. Here’s why porcelain veneers are a smile game-changer:

  1. Enhanced Aesthetics: Porcelain veneers from Advances in Dentistry in Oklahoma City can dramatically improve your smile by correcting many cosmetic concerns.
  2. Discoloration: Stubborn stains that don’t respond to whitening products can instantaneously and remarkably be covered with very beautiful veneers.
  3. Chips and Cracks: Many people have chips and cracks in their teeth from just basic wear as they age. These chips and cracks on the front teeth are very noticeable when we smile and can also “age a smile”. With porcelain veneers chips and cracks are easily covered to reveal a beautiful new smile. The veneers are not only beautiful but also very strong.
  4. Misalignment: Most people are not born with perfect teeth. Many people have misaligned teeth. Some have crowding, gaps or teeth that may not be in the best position. Porcelain veneers can instantly improve misalignment and give an elegant cosmetic solution to misaligned teeth.
  5. Worn Enamel: Teeth can get shorter due to wear. This happens naturally as we age or from habits like grinding teeth. Many seniors have cosmetic dental concerns. Some state their teeth are smaller and they can’t see their front teeth when they smile. Veneers can help worn enamel and reveal an opulent more youthful smile.

Porcelain Veneers OKC from Advances in Dentistry has many benefits, such as:

  1. Natural Appearance: Porcelain resembles the translucency and texture of beautiful natural teeth. Your veneers will blend seamlessly with your smile. Patients get compliments like “You have a great smile” or “You look younger and happier.”
  2. Long-Lasting: With proper care porcelain veneers can last decades. Dr. Rhodes first placed veneers in 1994 and many of those patients still have those same veneers giving them the same great smile 30 years later!
