So let's get started.

00:01:11.069 --> 00:01:17.269
Let's kick it off by talking about achieving the picture-perfect smile makeover with porcelain veneers.

00:01:17.269 --> 00:01:26.959
Now, dental veneers date back all the way to 1928, when a California dentist, dr Charles Pincus, developed the first dental veneers.

00:01:26.959 --> 00:01:38.191
He developed a way by which his clients, who were Hollywood celebrities like Shirley Temple and other actors, could temporarily perfect their smiles for their movie scenes.

00:01:38.191 --> 00:01:43.212
This brought about the famous term in cosmetic dentistry Hollywood smile.

00:01:43.212 --> 00:01:53.710
So in this section, I'm going to tell you about what veneers are and who can rock them, what's fantastic or not so fantastic about them.

00:01:53.710 --> 00:02:03.849
Plus, I'll give you a sneak peek behind the scenes to uncover the magic of creating veneers that would blend flawlessly with your face.

00:02:03.849 --> 00:02:10.632
So grab a comfy seat, folks, and let's take a stroll through the world of dental veneers.

00:02:10.632 --> 00:02:14.129
Trust me, your smile is in for a treat.

00:02:14.129 --> 00:02:31.527
Understanding porcelain veneers, now dental veneers are custom-made, ultra-thin shells that are designed to cover the front surface of your teeth to transform the appearance of your overall smile.

00:02:31.527 --> 00:02:38.987
I say they are like the couture of dentistry they're tailor-made for a smile that's going to steal the show.

00:02:38.987 --> 00:02:43.944
There are mainly two types of veneers and we're going to talk about both of them.

00:02:44.806 --> 00:02:46.852
First, let's get into porcelain veneers.

00:02:46.852 --> 00:03:01.257
Porcelain veneers are strong, wafer-thin, custom-made, tooth-colored ceramic shells designed to create a mask over any imperfections on the front surfaces of your teeth.

00:03:01.257 --> 00:03:06.490
Composite veneers are made of a plastic composite resin material.

00:03:06.490 --> 00:03:16.122
It's soft and doughy like this, and you place it directly on the front surface of your teeth, leaving you with a plastic-like appearance.

00:03:16.122 --> 00:03:29.930
Now, porcelain veneers are arguably the most natural-looking veneers, an invaluable solution to your cosmetic problems, because they mimic the light reflecting properties of your natural teeth.

00:03:30.069 --> 00:03:34.966
So let's get into the advantages of porcelain veneers, and are they really worth the money?

00:03:34.966 --> 00:03:40.001
Like your natural enamel, porcelain veneers have a realistic texture.

00:03:40.001 --> 00:03:43.305
They can mimic the way real teeth reflect light.

00:03:43.305 --> 00:03:52.135
These thin shells of porcelain are really good for masking flaws like discolorations, chips and misaligned teeth.

00:03:52.135 --> 00:04:01.395
Any dentist that has extensive training in cosmetic dentistry can make you look younger and attractive with this dental procedure.

00:04:01.395 --> 00:04:06.252
Just think of porcelain veneers like a contact lens for the tooth.

00:04:06.252 --> 00:04:13.502
You can have that beautiful, natural looking smile that you've always dreamed of with these porcelain veneers.

00:04:13.902 --> 00:04:28.175
So yes, investing in porcelain veneers was the best decision of my life, and it could be yours too, if you are also looking for that picture perfect smile in just a few visits at your dentist.

00:04:28.175 --> 00:04:44.355
I'm talking about one to two weeks, but there are cases where veneers don't work as well for a patient and I'm going to discuss how to determine whether you are an ideal candidate for them or not a little bit later.

00:04:44.355 --> 00:04:49.062
Are an ideal candidate for them or not a little bit later.

00:04:49.062 --> 00:04:54.713
But before that, why not explore the next option that you have for your smile makeover, and that's going to be clear aligners.

00:04:54.713 --> 00:05:04.509
