What Are Veneers?
A Beautiful Smile Makeover with Thin, Natural-Looking Shells
Dental veneers are thin, custom-made shells of porcelain or ceramic that are bonded to the front surfaces of your teeth to improve their appearance. At Fortson Dentistry, we create veneers that are tailored to your smile—enhancing the color, shape, and symmetry of your teeth for a flawless, natural-looking result.
Veneers are often used in cosmetic dentistry to correct imperfections such as stains, chips, gaps, or misshapen teeth. Thanks to their durability and stain resistance, veneers provide a long-lasting way to achieve a radiant smile with minimal alteration to your natural teeth.
Why Do I Need Veneers?
A Simple Solution for Stains, Chips, Gaps, and More
If you’re self-conscious about discolored, uneven, or chipped teeth, veneers offer a conservative way to dramatically improve your smile. Unlike whitening treatments or dental bonding, veneers provide a complete smile makeover by covering imperfections in a single procedure. Whether you're preparing for a special occasion or simply want to feel more confident, veneers help you achieve the smile you’ve always wanted.
In addition to cosmetic improvements, veneers can protect the surface of your teeth from further damage. They are strong enough to withstand everyday biting and chewing and maintain their bright appearance for years to come, making them a smart investment in your smile’s long-term health and beauty.
