Ceramic veneers are very thin shells of porcelain that cover the visible outside portion of the tooth. Veneers are a popular choice for the upper front teeth. They are used to lighten teeth that are gray or yellow and cannot be whitened by bleaching. Another benefit of veneers is they can be used to reshape chipped, worn, uneven spaces, or even slightly crooked teeth. Dr. Bauer will be happy to discuss if veneers are the right treatment for you.
