Address a gap between the front teeth with porcelain veneers

If you have a gap between your two front teeth, you may know how much this can affect your self-confidence when socializing with others. You may find yourself covering your smile or avoiding smiling in photographs. Thanks to cosmetic dental treatments becoming increasingly affordable, our patients at Los Alamitos Dental Care in Los Alamitos, California, can experience a cost-effective solution to disguise this imperfection. Our dentists will often suggest the placement of two dental veneers or direct bonding that can be completed in one-day!

What are dental veneers?

Our dental team describes veneers as porcelain, ceramic, or composite facings that cover the teeth and provide a discreet yet natural way to disguise an imperfection of a tooth or teeth. When patients want to address a gap between their two front teeth, two veneers are used side-by-side to create the illusion of little to no gap. These restorations are customized to the patient to ensure a natural-looking repair, and with proper care and attention, patients will enjoy their veneers for many years!

Los Alamitos Dental Care: Creating Veneers, Creating Perfection

How do veneers cover a gap between teeth?

To cover the gap between the two front teeth, our dental team in Los Alamitos, California, will create two porcelain veneers that are slightly wider than the two front teeth. Then, the veneers are bonded next to each other, and the gap between the teeth is effectively covered. We work with an experienced master ceramist to ensure your restorations look great and natural, matching the patient’s existing teeth for seamless integration.

How do I care for my veneers?

Veneers are easy to care for. Just like your natural teeth, brushing, flossing, and routine appointments with our dentists will ensure longevity for your veneers and your smile as a whole!
