Learn Which Option Is Best For Your Situation

Do you have a problem with your smile? Are you embarrassed to show your teeth when you laugh or smile? If so, you may be considering veneers or crowns. Both of these dental procedures done by Whites Dental Care can improve the appearance of your teeth, but they are not the same.

Veneers are thin pieces of porcelain that are bonded to the front of your teeth. They can be used to correct a variety of dental problems, including gaps between teeth, misshapen teeth, and stained or discolored teeth. Veneers are also less invasive than crowns and can usually be completed in just two visits to the dentist.

Crowns are larger than veneers and cover the entire tooth. They are typically made from porcelain or ceramic and are bonded to the tooth with dental cement. Crowns can be used to correct a variety of dental problems, including cracked or broken teeth, misshapen teeth, and severely stained or discolored teeth. Unlike veneers, crowns are more invasive and usually require three visits to the dentist.

Additionally, crowns are more expensive than veneers and are not always covered by dental insurance. So, if you are considering veneers or crowns, be sure to consult with your dentist to see which option is best for you and your smile.

So, which is better for your smile? Veneers or crowns? The answer depends on your individual dental needs. If you have a minor dental problem, such as gaps between your teeth or stained teeth, veneers may be the best option for you. If you have a more serious dental problem, such as cracked or broken teeth, misshapen teeth, or severely stained teeth, crowns may be the best option for you.
