WHAT IS A DENTAL VENEER
Dental veneer is a thin but solid porcelain shell that is fixed (glued) on the front side of your tooth.
It’s function is to improve the shape and color of your natural tooth and protect it.
Veneer is very thin between 0.3 and 0.5 mm so the tooth is shaved very slighly.
After the veneer is installed it is not possible to differ it from your natural teeth.
Veneer is a modern way to solve such problems as an ugly shape of tooth, insufficient height, enamel roughness, pigmentation, spots on enamel, interdental gaps, an irregularly growing tooth, cracks, seals and others.

History of Veneers
Did you know that the radiant smiles of celebrities with their perfectly even teeth are in most cases not a gift of generous nature, but the result of using veneers?
The idea of veneers is not new – back in the 1920s, actors glued thin plate on their tooth to create an illusion of a perfect smile. That was a temporary solution – such the records lasted only a few days, only until the end of filming. Since then, much has changed.
Modern veneers are a work of art made on a high level, they are able to solve many cosmetic problems: from cracks and uneven teeth to sensitive enamel.
Veneer is a thin, but very flexible plate, which is attached to front part of the tooth and literally transforms it, according to veneers definition. To install veneers, teeth need to be slightly sharpened (and far from being as strong as installing a crown!).
Simply put, veneers for teeth are modern alternative to dental crowns. And although it is usually impossible to replace dental crowns in all cases, dental veneers are very widespread in cosmetic dentistry.

What are the problems veneers solve?
Veneers solve two groups of problems: functional and cosmetic.
Cosmetic are:
• the shape and height of the teeth;
• roughness of enamel, its pigmentation;
The functional are:
• teeth defects – cracks or chips;
• increased interdental spaces;
• mild occlusion defects (for instance, one tooth is much shorter than all the teeth in the same row).

“The ad says beyond imagination and it was. I was amazed by the environment and atmosphere… the minute I walked through the door. The aromatherapy, spa music, massages, backrubs. This was the complete package”.
But the facility just set the stage for the main event. Oksana knew 100% exactly what she wanted — a bright Hollywood smile. Dr. Gershkowitz did a smile makeover on Oksana including upper and lower veneers. The results were evident right away, and they were flawless.
“My whole smile changed before my eyes. The doctor is such a perfectionist. Her nature and personality and creativity drive her. She wont get up from the chair until she knows it is her best work. Dr. Gershkowitz is one of a kind. She made me feel very special”.
Oksana has been surprised, not only at how she feels about herself but with how others treat her.
“In the mirror, I cant get enough of myself, I am so pleased. And from the moment I left Dental Spa & Beyond, absolute strangers in Manhattan will stop me and compliment me on my smile. How could I be happier? I have the Hollywood wow factor”.

I highly recommend this facility. I've been a patient here for several years and have nothing but good things to say. The doctor and her staff are professional, catering, and really care about their patients. They take the time to … More listen to your concerns and always follow up the next day to see how you are feeling. They genuinely care about your feedback and always looking for ways to improve. Stephanie the hygienist is very friendly and very efficient in her cleanings. I have sent numerous friends and family here and they are always impressed with their services. -
