Cosmetic dentistry is truly a combination of art and science performed to improve the appearance and quality of life of dental patients. People who have often suffered for years with unattractive and embarrassing smiles are more and more commonly able to do something about it by depending on the skills of their cosmetic dentist and the latest advances in the use of porcelain veneers.

The Art
The creation of porcelain veneers as an art form requires a certain amount of inherent talent and skill on the part of the cosmetic dentist. Creating images of the potential improvements that can be made to a person's appearance through the application of veneers and manifesting those images into actual physical improvements can change a patient's life forever. It takes artistic skill to determine which cosmetic changes will be of the most benefit to the patient once the procedure is completed, and to create a smile design that matches those changes with the shape of the face and style of smile of the person.

The Science
Cosmetic dentistry has evolved over the years as technology has improved and expanded. A skilled cosmetic dentist combines education and technology and uses them to redesign and improve upon the lives of their patients through recommending methods to improve the patient's smile, which in turn improves the person's overall appearance and sense of self-esteem. Today's science offers new advances in cosmetic dentistry technology--including higher strength ceramics and better color matching with dental bonding that binds the veneer to the tooth--that allow Dr. Huefner to offer his patients better smiles than ever before.
