Porcelain Veneer Services - Village Family Dental Office

A Veneer is a thin layer of restorative material placed over a tooth's surface to improve the look and appearance of the tooth as well as to protect a damaged surface. There are many different types of veneer surfaces including a composite or porcelain layer. By placing ceramic porcelain on the surface of teeth, dentists can provide patients with bright, straight, and natural looking smiles.

The glass-like ceramic that forms porcelain veneers closely resembles natural tooth enamel. This is because, much like real tooth enamel, porcelain veneers are translucent. When light strikes a natural tooth’s surface, it is not immediately reflected off. Instead, it penetrates the tooth enamel and reflects off the opaque tooth that lies just beneath.
