1st Family Dental Releases Blog Post Explaining Pros And Cons Of Veneers

1st Family Dental in Chicago, Illinois, has announced the release of a new blog post published on the website of the dental practice. The post focuses on the pros and cons of veneers and offers information that patients need in order to make an informed decision about this procedure.

"Veneers are a great cosmetic option for people that are unhappy with their smile," says Vicky Khawaja, a representative for the dental practice. "Our goal is to ensure that our patients really know what they want and that they have the information they need in order to make the best decision regarding their dental care."

The post explains the process that patients go through to obtain porcelain veneers as well as the reasons that patients may choose this procedure to improve their smile. It offers information about the benefits of veneers, highlighting that they offer more confidence in one's smile and that they are molded specifically for individual patients' teeth to give them a more attractive and natural looking smile..

"Veneers make your teeth look brighter and can be constructed in the patient's natural color so that it is less obvious that dental work has been done," says Khawaja.

The Chicago dental clinic also outlines the cons of veneers, stating in the post that there are specific things to consider before choosing this procedure. It states that teeth can still decay under a veneer, which could lead to an increased risk for the need for root canals and crowns. Veneers do not change color teeth do, which could lead to an awkward difference in the teeth if veneers cover only a few natural teeth.

The dental post also states, however, that regular dental checkups can help patients to avoid these issues and reiterates that veneers are a good choice for those who have chipped or broken teeth and want a more natural looking solution than dentures or bridges.
