Would you like to improve the appearance of your smile? Yes, dental veneers can correct dental imperfections!

Yes, dental veneers can be used for dental imperfections such as crooked, split or misaligned teeth. They have become very popular in cosmetic dentistry. People like them for several reasons:

  • They’re versatile, thin and can mimic natural teeth.
  • They can solve all kinds of dental problems, including large gaps between teeth, or teeth that are misaligned, misshapen, worn or too dark.
  • They’re custom-made and, because they’re permanently bonded to the front surface of the teeth, they can improve their shape, position and colour.

Porcelain dental veneers in particular are unquestionably one of the best ways to straighten teeth without braces, as they offer multiple cosmetic benefits and are long-lasting.
“OK! But if I have really crooked teeth, can I still use dental veneers?” we’re often asked.

Clearly, dental veneers are more likely to be applied to people with good oral health and/or optimal tooth alignment. Conversely, it may be more elaborate depending on the types of dental imperfections discovered. Several factors come into play, and it’s important to consider the difficulties they raise.

Problems associated with really crooked teeth

There’s no doubt that the first problem with crooked, split or misaligned teeth is their appearance: they’re far from attractive! But the problem doesn’t stop there. They can also pose a threat to your oral health. When teeth are severely crooked or misaligned, it can be difficult to clean them, especially from each other, increasing the risk of cavities, pain or bad odours. They could also exert pressure against each other and be susceptible to breakage or chipping if you accidentally bite too hard into a hearty food.

However, if your teeth are at risk and need further straightening, Dr. Pierre Comeau will recommend that you consider orthodontic treatment. The urgent need here will be to reposition your teeth for optimal function. Porcelain veneers will complete your treatment, improving your teeth and enhancing your smile.

Just a minor misalignment?

The situation will be different if your teeth are only slightly crooked or have minor misalignment (gaps between teeth that are too large, misaligned, malformed, worn or too dark). With the team at Spa dentaire Laurier, you can discover the benefits of these little shells called dental veneers, which will reshape your teeth and make them look perfectly straight without the need for braces!

Remember that your dentist is the best person to determine whether porcelain dental veneers will work well for you or whether orthodontic straightening (invisible orthodontics) is necessary before resorting to cosmetic treatment that will create your new smile.

Straightening your teeth – Another alternative

Some people opt for a smile makeover (a complete solution incorporating composite veneers and a gum lift) to correct minor misalignment. This way, you can look your best at a lower cost than with porcelain veneers. Sometimes, smile makeovers don’t last as long.

Do you have dental imperfections? Which treatment is right for you? The best way to find out is to discuss it with Dr. Pierre Comeau.
