Porcelain Veneers

Boulder, Colorado

Porcelain veneers are a versatile treatment that can be very effective in correcting a variety of cosmetic dental issues such as chipped, stained, gapped, or crooked teeth. Boulder cosmetic dentist, Dr. Gerald Savory, can help you achieve, a straight, bright, beautiful smile with your porcelain veneers procedure.

Porcelain veneers are made from an ultra-thin, ceramic porcelain shell which gets bonded to your front teeth. They are highly durable and achieve beautiful aesthetic results. Dental porcelain mimics the translucency of tooth enamel, so your porcelain veneers will blend in seamlessly with your neighboring teeth. No one will be able to notice the difference between your veneers and your natural teeth when you smile.

Your Porcelain Veneers Procedure

Dr. Savory works with Professional Dental Arts in Lafayette and Massey Dental Studio in Fort Collins for all of his porcelain veneers procedures. He has worked with these labs for many years, and they consistently deliver exceptional results when creating porcelain veneers.

It will take two visits to our Boulder cosmetic dentistry office to complete your porcelain veneers procedure. At your first visit, Dr. Savory will take an impression of your teeth which will be sent to the lab to use in the creation of your veneers. He will then prepare your teeth by removing a small amount of enamel. Temporary veneers may be used while your permanent ones are being constructed.

Once the lab has finished your porcelain veneers, you will return to Dr. Savory’s office to have them permanently bonded to the surface of your teeth.

Sometimes, Dr. Savory will use a composite material as a partial veneer to provide a more cost-effective option. He will discuss this alternative with you at your initial consultation.

Benefits of Porcelain Veneers

Dr. Savory can craft your porcelain veneers into your desired shape and size. He can also achieve a great deal of precision matching the color to your adjoining teeth. As a result, it is very easy to achieve a beautiful, natural looking smile with your treatment.

Many of our patients choose porcelain veneers as an alternative to braces when correcting crooked teeth. If you would like to avoid the time, discomfort, and unsightliness of metal braces, then porcelain veneers may be the ideal option to achieve your goals. They are often referred to as “instant orthodontics” since they provide the illusion that your front teeth are straight.

Some stains on your teeth, such as those caused by medication or over-exposure to fluoride as a child, will not respond to tooth whitening treatments. In these situations, porcelain veneers provide you with an effective option to achieve your desired whitening results.
