Quality Porcelain Veneers
People that suffer dental trauma or need work that requires drilling to the surface of the tooth may be prime candidates for dental veneers. While health benefits always take priority with your teeth, how your teeth look is important as well. When your teeth don’t look good, you feel self-conscious and you may have a hard time laughing or speaking in front of other people. In some cases, people even avoid smiling around others because of this embarrassment.
Depending on your dental needs, porcelain veneers may be the best option for you, especially if the affected teeth are at the front, where they’re the most visible. Sadly, the rising costs of dental care in the United States make them unaffordable for many people, which is one reason why some of them visit Costa Rica for porcelain veneers. Other reasons many are delighted with Costa Rica for dental care are:
- the quality of the dental care is on a par with that of care in the US,
- the staff is typically fluent in English, and
- Costa Rica is an ideal vacation destination.
What Are Veneers?
A veneer is a “cover” for a tooth. It is used for both reconstruction and aesthetics. Today’s modern porcelain veneers are replacing the traditional composite veneers. The porcelain in modern dental veneers is specially produced for dental use to mimic natural look and feel of real teeth.
Composite veneers on the other hand, are made of a special type of resin. The dentist typically prepares them by hand, which makes them less accurate than porcelain veneers. Porcelain veneers are made in laboratories, and while producing them takes a few days, the results are much more exact and durable.
Porcelain veneers offer the following benefits:
- They look just like natural teeth.
- They are resistant to wear and tear.
- They last for a long time, often for life.
- They are strong, and can be relied upon for normal chewing.
- They don’t get loose with time.
- They feel so natural that you’ll forget about them.
