The advanced porcelain veneers used by Dr. Schleiffarth are very thin shells of porcelain which are bonded onto the front side of teeth to make them look more attractive. Although porcelain itself can be brittle, when bonded to a strong understructure such as a tooth, it becomes very strong, durable and resists staining. Veneers cover imperfections such as slightly misaligned teeth, discoloration, and chipped and worn teeth, resulting in a youthful, beautiful and bright smile.
