Each smile is unique and special in its own way, but knowing\nthat your smile is beautiful and looks great can boost your confidence and help\nyou in all aspects of your life. Whether it is the social aspect or the\nprofessional part of your life, a perfect smile has a positive impact in many\ndifferent ways. Speak to us at <strong>Wimbledon\nDental Care<\/strong> to book your <strong>veneers in Wimbledon<\/strong>,\nand invite that positivity into your life too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Teeth staining is an extremely common issue that we all face\nfrom time to time. Discolouration can occur as a result of many different\nfactors. These include different foods and drinks such as coffee, tea, cola,\nwines and even certain fruits and vegetables. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Smoking is a major cause of discolouration, poor dental\nhygiene, some dental materials and also medication can lead to staining.\nFinally aging and genetics are an unavoidable cause of discolouration too.\nAlthough teeth staining can be bleached, this is only a temporary procedure. If\nyou are looking for a permanent solution, <strong>veneers in wimbledon<\/strong>\ncan whiten your smile without having to worry about discolouration as veneers\nare mainly stain resistant and therefore will not need to be whitened. In case\nof a chipped or cracked tooth, you may need only one veneer or may decide to\nhave a set of veneers to help enhance your smile by providing symmetry and\noptimally aligning the remaining teeth. Veneers are also used in the treatment\nof damaged enamel. Enamel is the thin outer covering of your teeth. Although it\nis the hardest tissue in the human body, enamel can be damaged by many\ndifferent factors, including over-brushing, consumption of highly acidic foods\nand drinks and also by your own stomach acid in acid reflux disease. Enamel damage is known as enamel\nabrasion or enamel erosion and veneers in Wimbledon can be a perfect treatment\nfor this issue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Porcelain Veneers<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The materials used in the formation of veneers have evolved\nover the years with advances in dental science and technology. Since the 1980\u2019s\ndentists have been using porcelain to create veneers. Porcelain veneers have\nbeen found to show excellent aesthetic results and predictable longevity of the\ntreatment. It requires a few trips to the dentist, and involves slight\nreshaping of the tooth so that the veneer can be attached perfectly without\nchanging the size of your teeth but rest assured the dentist will ensure your\ncomfort at all times. Porcelain veneers are stain resistant and have the same light-reflecting\nproperties of natural teeth, and will therefore camouflage with your existing\nteeth if that is what you are interested in or enhance and improve your mouth\naltogether, according to your personal requirements. Speak to us today at <strong>Wimbledon Dental Care<\/strong> to find out why\nveneers could be the perfect option for you. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dentists have been using veneers since the 1930s for the protection of teeth and to improve the aesthetics of the mouth.
