Through instant orthodontics, your cosmetic dentist can transform your unsatisfactory smile into one you will be proud to show the world. If you suffer from teeth that are uneven, crooked, misshapen or discolored, instant orthodontics may be the answer for you.

Porcelain veneers are thin pieces of porcelain material that are adhered to the fronts of your teeth. They look and feel like your own natural teeth and can even be colored to match the color of your other teeth. Through the use of porcelain veneers, your teeth can be changed in the following ways:

• Length
• Width
• Shape
• Color
• Size

Cracks and chips can also be hidden by the use of veneers. Porcelain veneers offer a painless, faster answer to traditional orthodontic practices. Your cosmetic dentist will take an impression of your teeth to ensure that your new veneers will fit precisely. Once your veneers have been created, your teeth are prepared and the veneers are bonded to the fronts of them.

You may experience some mild tenderness in your gums for a couple of days after your procedure that is treatable with traditional over-the-counter medications like anti-inflammatories. This is minor compared to the months and years of adjustments and re-adjustments traditional orthodontics require for optimum results.
