Porcelain Veneers have gained widespread popularity over the years around the world. They are one of the most important and requested dental cosmetic procedures. But before any veneer can be applied, the right color will need to be chosen. Each patient receives a personalized application for their veneers using a color chart. The color chart ensures a flawless finish. It also helps to create a more natural look.

The veneer color chart helps to find the best color to fit the specific patient. Just as patients have different skin colors, they also have different face shapes. What works for one person might not be the best fit for another. For this reason, your dentist must select the best color to meet your needs. Veneers come in four categories. These are reddish-brown, reddish-yellow, grey, and reddish grey. Under these categories, there are 11 subcategories to personalize the patient’s results further. Some color systems implement the fifth category. They are known as bleached shades. These are levels of bleached white, similar to what you would have with tooth whitening.

The color theory applies to most aesthetic services. For instance, stylists will recommend only going two shades lighter or darker for a natural look with hair. When it comes to smiles, the same can be applied. Most dentists recommend two shades lighter from your natural teeth generate realistic results. Though this is something, you’ll want to discuss with your dentist. Every patient’s dental goals are different. The purpose of veneers is to help achieve these goals while providing a natural finish.
