Porcelain is used in other types of restorations, too, such as inlays, onlays, and dental crowns. Porcelain is a strong and durable material, which are some of the reasons we use it, but we also use it because it looks so much like natural tooth enamel. Porcelain has a translucency that reflects light the same way teeth do, and can be tinted in colors to match the color of your own teeth.
Once porcelain veneers have been bonded to your teeth, they can keep your teeth looking great for many years. You can brush and floss them just as you do your own teeth. They require no special care beyond brushing, flossing, and routine dental cleanings.
