Typically the determination of whether a patient should have veneers or crowns is based on what you and Dr. Palluck are looking to achieve. While both procedures can be highly aesthetic, the two treatments have different uses.

Veneers

Typically veneers are used when a patient would like to improve the shape and color of their teeth. Crowding and excess space issues can also be alleviated. Veneers are thin (approximately fingernail thickness), beautifully shaped porcelain that is customized for the individual patient.

People who have cracked, chipped, broken, or worn down teeth can find new love for their smile thanks to porcelain veneers. Significant tooth discoloration can also be mitigated through the use of veneers.

Crowns

Crowns are frequently used in cases in which there is less tooth structure due to tooth decay or in cases in which a tooth has undergone root canal therapy. Crowns can achieve all of the aesthetic advantages of veneers and should only be used when necessary.

Often times when teeth are damaged, such as by decay or injury, a filling can resolve the issue. When the problem is larger in scope or persists over time, however, a crown may offer the best protection.

Dental crowns are designed to be placed right on top of the existing damaged tooth, and cemented in place. They protect the tooth from any further damage, restore the appearance of the tooth, and return it to normal function for biting and chewing.

We have been going to Somerset Dental for the last few years and are so happy that we found them. The front desk staff is very kind and attentive they know who your family members are and what’s going on. My hygienist is very caring and makes me feel very comfortable. I don’t mind seeing my dental appointments come up anymore. Dr. Somerset is amazing and her and her team show you they care.

I had a wonderful experience at Somerset Dental. The staff is super friendly, efficient and accommodating. My hygienist Ally was beyond knowledgeable and very gentle. She was soft spoken and really put me at ease. Dr. Palluck was equally comforting and I trusted her expertise. I’ve already made an appointment to have my teeth whitened and have some bonding replaced. I really love their practice and I’m actually looking forward to having my smile updated before a family vacation. Scheduling was super easy by the way!

The receptionists during check in were very friendly and accommodating. The dental hygienist was very through and felt she took her time and really cleaned my teeth gently. Sufia the actual dentist was fabulous. Provided me with another through exam and didn’t rush. Gave me some options to keep my teeth in tip top shape. I’ll definitely be coming back.

Dr.Palluck took such great care of my little guy. She made him feel at ease throughout his filling treatment. He didn’t complain of any discomfort or pain after either. Super friendly and patient staff with kids. Highly recommend Somerset dental, overall great experience!
