Veneers in Phoenixville, PA
Porcelain veneers are thin pieces of porcelain used to recreate the natural look of teeth. Veneers also provide strength & resilience comparable to natural tooth enamel. Porcelain veneers are a great option in situations where the original tooth has developed poor color, shape, and contour. It is also a good option for fractured teeth, gaps between teeth, and in some situations where the tooth position is compromised and there are minor bite-related problems.

Can veneers stain?
Veneers can stain, but they are not nearly as prone to staining as natural teeth are. This is because teeth are quite porous, which leads to small amounts of coffee, tea, wine, and berry juice being absorbed and the teeth losing their bright white appearance. Porcelain veneers tend to be far more stain-resistant than natural teeth. This also means that they will not absorb teeth whitening products, so patients who choose to utilize them should make sure they are happy with the shade of their new porcelain veneers before they are applied to the teeth.
Are veneers painful?
The dental veneer application process is not considered painful. A local anesthetic is always applied beforehand to numb the teeth and gums to ensure that the appointment is comfortable and pain-free. After the numbness wears off, you may feel a little soreness in your teeth or gums, but that is to be expected. Any discomfort that occurs after your appointment can usually be relieved by over-the-counter pain medication and should subside after a few days.
Are veneers covered by insurance?
Dental veneers that are used for cosmetic purposes are usually not covered by insurance, but some plans offer partial coverage for patients who need them for restorative purposes.
