Dental Implants Vs Porcelain Veneers

  • Dr. Amy Leberman

If you’re considering visiting a dentist in Boise to restore your smile, your choices might include dental implants or porcelain veneers. But which option is right for you? Well, it all depends on the issues you are trying to fix. That’s why Summit Dental Group would like to provide you with the following guide for dental implants vs. porcelain veneers.

Dental Implants

First off, dental implants are a permanent dental solution. In other words, once you receive a dental implant, it should last you a lifetime. At Summit Dental Group, our dentists use state-of-the-art materials to recreate your smile. The dental implant procedure includes the placement of a titanium post into the bone that supports your teeth. Next, a custom-made crown will be placed onto the titanium post. This recreates the look, feel, and function of a natural tooth. It will also look just like your other teeth so nobody can tell the difference or that you received any treatment.

Dental implants are one of the best ways to replace missing teeth because they are not only permanent but prevent jawbone deterioration that can result from a lost tooth. They also bring back peace and harmony for thousands of patients throughout the Treasure Valley, knowing they have a beautiful, functional smile.

Porcelain Veneers

Unlike implants that replace missing teeth, porcelain veneers improve the appearance of existing teeth that are still in the mouth. Veneers are thin shells of porcelain that are bonded to the front of a tooth, helping to cover up flaws like discoloration, cracks, and small gaps. Like implants, veneers are designed to match your natural teeth. In fact, people won’t notice that you’ve had any dental work done at all.

Veneers are exclusively a cosmetic dentistry solution that improves the appearance of your natural teeth. For those with missing teeth, implants are clearly the best option because porcelain veneers can’t be used to replace missing teeth or prevent jawbone deterioration.

Veneers are a faster, easier, and less expensive solution to improve your smile. Consequently, if you want to improve the appearance of your natural teeth, porcelain veneers are a better solution than dental implants. Why? You won’t have to remove perfectly healthy teeth and replace them with dental implants just to have an aesthetically pleasing smile.

Summit Dental Group

The only way to figure out whether dental implants or porcelain veneers are right for you is by visiting a dentist in Boise, Idaho. At Summit Dental Group, our dentists and dental team gladly accept patients from all over the Treasure Valley, and we specialize in both cosmetic and restorative dentistry treatments. Contact us today by filling out our online form or give our downtown office a call at (208) 314-2275 to schedule an appointment.
