Boost Your Confidence With Veneers From Our Office in Wilmington, NC
Smiling should feel natural, kind, and empowering. If you have chipped or stained teeth or gaps between your teeth, you may feel uncomfortable with your smile. However, you shouldn’t let this vulnerability take over. At Stephanie G. Hackney DDS PA, we have a non-invasive, permanent solution at our office in the Wilmington, North Carolina, community that can help—veneers.
The Purpose of Veneers
Teeth that are chipped, misshapen, or discolored can be vastly improved with veneers. Dental veneers are thin, custom-made shells that are bonded to the front surface of the teeth. They are made of porcelain or resin composite, and their purpose is to improve the color, shape, or size of teeth. Veneers look like natural teeth and are designed to improve your smile.
Maintaining Your Veneers
Veneers require similar upkeep in comparison to your natural teeth. We urge those with veneers to practice proper daily brushing with non-abrasive toothpaste. In addition, you should floss as you would with regular teeth. Although veneers are highly stain-resistant, our dentists recommend that you limit your intake of coffee, tea, wine, and other stain-inducing foods. With the proper care, veneers can last up to 10 years before needing to be replaced.
