Porcelain veneers
Porcelain veneers, also known as dental laminates, are custom-made shells of tooth-colored materials designed to cover the front surface of the teeth to improve your appearance. The shells are bonded to the front of the teeth changing their color, shape, size, and length. Their cost varies depending on the location and the number of teeth that require the treatment. McClane Dentistry in Stuart, FL, offers high-quality porcelain veneers to improve your facial aesthetics and oral functioning. We have experienced dentists who will thoroughly examine your teeth before deciding if veneers are the right treatment for you.

- They are also non-porous, which means that they are also resistant to permanent stains and cavities.
Types of porcelain veneers
- Stacked ceramic- These are veneers crafted with hands by a dentist to match the shape, color, and translucency of your teeth. They offer superior aesthetics and customization.
- Pressed ceramic- They are the easiest to manufacture and are thicker than any other veneers, making them durable and strong. Although due to their thickness, they require a more substantial alteration of the tooth’s structure.
