Porcelain Veneers

With his mastery of aesthetics, cosmetic dentist Dr. Rutley can use porcelain veneers, also known as dental veneers, to make almost any smile flawless. Even crooked teeth can appear straightened with porcelain veneers. It takes skill and experience to create outstanding results, and Dr. Rutley has both.

 Porcelain veneers, or dental veneers, are a thin, translucent layer of porcelain that fits over an existing tooth to give it an improved shape, color or size.  Porcelain veneers are a more conservative alternative to dental crowns since they require less “prepping” (or removal) of the tooth’s original surface and structure. At Dentistry of Del Mar, porcelain veneers and crowns are designed to do this and much more. Dr Rutley has taken the art of porcelain veneers and crowns to a much higher level. By utilizing them to provide support where it may be missing in his patients’ mouth, he is able to strip years of unwanted age from their face by making the entire lower third of their face appear full and youthful.

These new and revolutionary techniques of enhancing your smile are making waves in the entire cosmetic industry, leaving patients looking as though they’ve had much more than just their teeth done. By opening up the bite and building out the arch with porcelain veneers and crowns Dr Rutley is able to decrease wrinkles and lines around the mouth that had been difficult to target with fillers and injectables. In fact, it has made such an incredible impact for so many patients that it earned the name “Anti-Aging Dentistry” It can now be seen everywhere you turn in the cosmetic world, from television programs to beauty magazines, porcelain veneers are becoming the new way to help reverse unwanted signs of aging in the lower third of the face.
