Dental veneers are a common cosmetic dental procedure performed to fix a range of imperfections, including chipped, cracked and stained teeth. By learning more about the benefits of veneers, one can fully understand how it can help throughout their day to day life activities and allow for appropriate decisions to be made regarding cosmetic dental treatment.

The advantages of dental veneers

Many are familiar with the cosmetic benefits of dental veneers, but there are other reasons to consider veneers over alternative treatment solutions. The following are four notable advantages of veneers to consider when determining the best treatment option for a better smile. 

Improved appearance

The most obvious benefits of dental veneers are the cosmetic advantages. Teeth that are damaged, severely discolored or have another imperfection that can be addressed through veneers treatment are not always attractive. Veneers, however, provide people with a complete smile of beautifully white teeth. The improved appearance helps in many areas of life, including relationships, at work and in social situations. Additionally, the more attractive a person’s smile, the more confident they likely are. Increased confidence can also help people feel better about themselves and appear more attractive to others. 

Less invasive solution

Another benefit to dental veneers is that it is, for the most part, a non-invasive solution. The cosmetic dentist may need to remove a small amount of dental enamel to make room for the placement of the veneer, but the process is generally painless for the patient. When compared to alternative cosmetic solutions such as dental crowns, the process is often less invasive. Also, the entire process of veneers only takes several weeks and only requires two or three dental visits. 

Long-term durability

Dental veneers can last for more than fifteen years in some instances before replacement is needed, and the average lifespan of veneers is between ten and fifteen years, which is impressive compared to other cosmetic treatments. Of course, there are many factors that affect the durability of dental veneers, such as the location of the veneer, the quality of the patient’s oral care routine and the dietary choices of the patient. With proper care, patients can expect their veneers to continue improving their smile for more than a decade before a new veneer is necessary. 

Improved oral health

The primary reason cosmetic dentists recommend dental veneers is to address cosmetic considerations, but they may also recommend treatment due to oral health benefits as well. Dental veneers cover and protect damaged teeth, preventing further issues from developing. Also, many who choose veneers feel an increased motivation to keep their new and beautiful teeth in great condition through a consistent oral care routine, which helps with long-term oral health.
