If you're unhappy with your smile at all, porcelain veneers may be your perfect answer. Beautifully natural looking, porcelain that has been crafted by the hands of an artist will mimic the appearance of natural teeth better than any other material.
Veneers are extremely strong, long-lasting restorations made of ultra-thin porcelain. They are bonded to the fronts of your teeth, and are extremely resistant to staining. They allow Sharp Smile Center to brighten, lengthen, and reshape your teeth. You can have the smile of your dreams.

The Porcelain Veneer Procedure
You and Dr. Sharp will have an initial consult to answer your questions and design your smile based on the image you want to project and your facial characteristics. He will then gather diagnostic information, photographs, and models of your current smile to aid the two of you in planning your new smile.
On the following appointment, Dr. Sharp will make the changes necessary to your existing teeth to allow for the final porcelain veneers to fit perfectly. An impression is then taken and sent to the master ceramist, who will actually create the veneers. Meanwhile, Sharp Smile Center will fabricate your temporary veneers. These temporary veneers will give you a preview of your new smile. Once your permanent veneers are finished, Dr. Sharp will be ready to try them in.
Before the veneers are bonded into place, he will verify that they fit perfectly, look beautiful, and thrill you with their appearance. If you need someone else to help evaluate how they look, bring them along. If they aren't perfectly lovely, they will be sent back to the ceramist. Once everything is perfect, he bonds the new porcelain veneers into place and your new smile is ready to show the world.

Here is a full face photograph of the above case. Notice how strained his face looks, as if it is difficult for him to smile. We see this often in smile makeover patients—they're embarrassed to show their teeth. The teeth are severely worn, chipped, discolored, and aren't straight.
Tired of being ashamed of his smile, he came to Dr. Sharp for help. He chose a smile design that was bright and bold.

Notice how much more relaxed his smile looks in the "after" picture. The stress lines in his face are gone, and he appears happy and confident.
The teeth are bright, even, and so natural looking that you would not know he is wearing porcelain veneers. The veneers are bonded so tightly to his teeth that they become like a second enamel. And one of the best parts is that they are so durable and stain resistant that with good care they will last him for many years.
