At one point, veneers<\/a> were Hollywood\u2019s best-kept secret. Now, this cosmetic dental service is extremely popular! Since it can address several imperfections at once and the results can last for more than a decade with proper care, it\u2019s not hard to see why either. If you\u2019re considering transforming your smile as well, you might be wondering if veneers are only made from porcelain, or if there is another dental material that can be used. You can read on to learn the answer!<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

So, Can Porcelain Veneers Be Made Out of Other Materials?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The short answer is \u201cyes!\u201d Veneers can also be crafted from a resin composite material, which is why they are called \u201ccomposite veneers.\u201d In this case, the material is placed carefully over the front of the tooth or teeth being treated. Then, it\u2019s smoothed and polished, concealing chips, stains, and other imperfections in the process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What Are the Benefits of Porcelain Veneers?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

One of the biggest perks of composite veneers is that it\u2019s less invasive and, therefore, reversible. However, using porcelain to transform your smile comes with numerous perks as well. Perhaps most notably, their durability results in a longer lifespan. While composite usually lasts for 5-10 years, porcelain can last for upwards of two decades.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How To Find Out Which Material Is Best for You<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Now you might be wondering, \u201cShould I get composite or porcelain veneers?\u201d One of the easiest ways to find out is by scheduling a consultation with your cosmetic dentist. At your appointment, they can learn more about your current smile as well as your aesthetic goals, which will give them insight into which one is best for you. Plus, they can share the pros and cons of each option more in-depth, ensuring you have all of the information you need to confidently decide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
