How Would You Rate Your Smile?

Is it a perfect TEN! A seven, or perhaps even lower?
Does your smile make you look younger, sexier, and smarter? It can.

When you look at pictures do you ever wish your teeth were straighter, whiter, more aligned? Cosmetic dentistry allows dentists to perform porcelain veneer 'smile makeovers' which can address all of these issues. We are delighted to be able to offer this revolutionary technique to our patients.

What are Porcelain Veneers?
Porcelain veneers are custom, porcelain facings that are bonded to the front surfaces of your teeth to cover any imperfections and fix your smile. The veneers are very thin, only about 1 mm thick. That same thickness is "smoothed" off the natural tooth surface so when the veneer is bonded to the tooth, the tooth feels and looks the same thickness as before. Uneven, discoloured, or even damaged teeth can be restored or repaired using this procedure.

What makes Porcelain Veneers so special?
Not all veneers are created equal. Your face and smile are unique, as such, we will create a unique veneer to match the shape of your face and make the best smile for your mouth.

Veneers serve many purposes and can be used to:

Straighten crooked teeth
Close gaps in teeth
Whiten dark, yellow, permanently-stained or discoloured teeth
Repair broken or chipped teeth
Enhance your overall smile making you feel younger, sexier and more confident.

Feel free to ask Dr. Benedict what veneers can do for your smile; don't put it off any longer. Next time you're looking at pictures of yourself let your friends say, I wish my smile was as nice as yours, it's up to you if you tell them your secret or not!
