\"TeethIf your front teeth are crooked, you may avoid smiling because you feel self-conscience about your appearance. There are several dental treatments to correct crooked teeth, but one of the fastest ways to enhance your smile is with porcelain veneers<\/a>. From start to finish, veneers take only a few appointments over the course of about a month.<\/p>\n

Dr. Steven Hochfelder of Lake Mary Dentistry in Lake Mary, FL<\/strong>, has the knowledge and experience to explain why porcelain veneers<\/strong> are an excellent option for crooked teeth.<\/p>\n

Porcelain veneers are thin, durable porcelain shells that are adhered to the front surface of teeth that show when a person smiles. They can cover many cosmetic flaws, including crooked teeth. Porcelain veneers are custom-shaded and precisely placed so that they will give your smile a natural appearance. Let\u2019s look at how porcelain veneers for crooked teeth can help you.<\/p>\n

Porcelain Veneers are Custom-Fitted to Your Teeth<\/h2>\n

Your smile is unique. As Lake Mary Dentistry, we want to preserve that uniqueness while we restore health and beauty. Dr. Hochfelder has two methods for placing veneers.<\/p>\n

One method is traditional. The first step is to adjust the teeth that will be veneered. A small portion of enamel is removed to make room for the veneers.<\/p>\n

Next, we will make an impression of your teeth and take pictures of your smile and your face. The dental impression and photos will then be sent to the lab that Dr. Hochfelder has been using for 27 years. There, your high-quality e.max porcelain veneers will be made. We will check and adjust them to an excellent fit during your second appointment.<\/p>\n

The second method we offer is no-prep. No enamel will be removed from your teeth, so a healthy tooth structure is preserved. However, no-prep veneers are typically only used on patients with very minor cosmetic flaws. They probably aren\u2019t ideal for crooked teeth. At our Lake Mary dental office, Dr. Hochfelder will help you determine the best type of veneers for your smile.<\/p>\n
