Two of the best tooth restoration procedures in dentistry today are dental crowns and dental veneers. Both procedures are great services designed to improve the look of your teeth and enhance your overall smile. Each one has its own set of unique benefits, so it’s important to speak with our dentists to determine which one is best for you.

Dental crowns remove a portion of tooth enamel from teeth to directly bond a cap to a tooth to fully conceal it above the gum line. Not only can this procedure vastly improve the look of a tooth, it also adds an additional layer of protection, and can prevent various forms of damage to the tooth concealed inside.

Dental veneers do not fully conceal teeth, but rather remove a portion of tooth enamel, typically much less than the amount needed for a dental crown, and bond the veneer to the face of a tooth. Dental veneers are durable and thin and can last over a decade. Dental veneers tend to be a better choice for teeth that are discolored or stained.
