When you’re dealing with a dental care problem, it’s good to know what options you have to fix it. From tooth discoloration or gaps between teeth to work, broken, or chipped teeth, WebMD states that veneers can fix a variety of dental issues. Diane M Evans DDS in the Rush, New York, area will help you decide if a veneer is right for you.

Made from a resin composite or porcelain, veneers are a very thin, tooth-colored shell that is customized to cover a tooth, improving its appearance, according to WebMD. As a family dentist practice specializing in cosmetic dentistry, the team at Diane M Evans DDS provides porcelain veneers to patients who want to improve the look of their smile. 

If you think a veneer will solve your dental problem, consider these five advantages:

• Veneers Look Natural: Because veneers are customized to each individual tooth, they look very natural in shape, size, and color. No one will know you have veneers if you don't want them to. 
• Veneers Agree With Gums: Gum irritation can be a problem with some cosmetic dentistry options, but porcelain veneers won’t bother your gums, making it a more comfortable, healthier choice.
• Veneers Resist Stains: If you have a tooth that's discolored as a result of a root canal, porcelain veneers will not only make your tooth whiter but also resist future staining. 
• Veneers Are Simple: Compared to other procedures that improve a tooth's shape and color, such as dental crowns, porcelain veneers are a stronger alternative that is less invasive because they require little tooth shaping. 

While veneers are not right for everyone, they are an excellent alternative to dealing with incorrectly spaced, misaligned, or discolored teeth. If you think you’ll be a good candidate for veneers, the family dentist practice of Diane M Evans DDS will consult with you to explain this and other options. 

In addition to veneers, Diane M Evans DDS provides other dental care procedures, including tooth extraction, dental crowns, teeth whitening, and more. Visit them online and on Facebook to learn more, and call (585) 321-1460 to schedule a consultation today.
