For many patients in the area of Knoxville, Tennessee, it can be a big challenge to enhance the appearance of their smiles if they are dealing with severe imperfections and blemishes on the teeth near the front of the smile. Tooth discoloration, malformed teeth, chipped enamel, and misalignment can all negatively impact one’s look, and in some cases, require more than one treatment to address. Instead, custom-made dental veneers from South Knox Dental can provide an affordable and effective solution to dental repairs.
