This includes chips, stains, undersized, and misshapen teeth \u2013 but what about gaps? Read on to learn more!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Do Veneers Work?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Veneers are thin, tooth-colored shells of porcelain that are placed over the front-facing surfaces of the teeth to correct imperfections. Veneers can be placed in as few as two appointments. During your initial visit, your dentist will carefully examine your smile to ensure that your teeth are healthy enough to support veneers and that they are an ideal option to meet your needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Next, your dentist will prepare your teeth by removing a small amount of protective enamel to make room for the veneers. Impressions will be taken of your altered teeth to be sent to the dental lab where your final restorations are made. In just a few short weeks, your new restorations will be ready!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Can Veneers Fix Gapped Teeth?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Veneers are able to mask a wide range of cosmetic issues. However, they can\u2019t physically move your teeth. Ultimately, if the gaps in your smile are small, veneers could be the ideal solution to make your teeth appear the perfect distance apart. However, if the gaps in your smile are larger, you may need to undergo orthodontic treatment to achieve the results that you are looking for.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Benefits of Enhancing Your Smile with Veneers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There are numerous benefits of choosing veneers to achieve a more uniform smile. Here are some of the most prominent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Natural Appearance:<\/strong> Unless you tell someone that you got veneers, there is no way that anyone would be able to tell. Veneers are customized to look and feel perfectly natural in your smile.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Veneers Correct Many Issues:<\/strong> Even if your motivation for getting veneers is to close some small gaps, you can also experience the benefits of masking chips, stains, and more!<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Low Maintenance:<\/strong> Veneers don\u2019t require special care. You can maintain them in the same way as teeth that don\u2019t have veneers.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are bothered by the appearance of gaps in your smile, veneers may be the perfect solution. The best way to find out if veneers will meet your needs is to schedule a consultation with your dentist. You will be smiling with confidence in just a matter of time!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Author<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.greenhillsdentalcenter.com\/meet-dr-kirby.html\">Dr. James Kirby<\/a> earned his dental doctorate from the University of Tennessee in Memphis.
