What can porcelain veneers do for me?

Veneers are thin, customized laminates made from tooth-colored materials, such as porcelain. Dental veneers are placed on the front of teeth to mask a range of imperfections.

With dental veneers, you can say goodbye to:

  • Discolored or stained teeth
  • Unwanted spaces between teeth
  • Worn-down teeth
  • Mildly misaligned teeth
  • Chipped or cracked teeth
  • Oddly shaped or sized teeth

What is the process of getting veneers?

Getting dental veneers involves several steps, but we have refined the procedure with your comfort and time in mind. Here’s how the procedure unfolds:

  • Initial consultation: We’ll examine your smile and discuss your goals and expectations before creating a customized treatment plan.
  • Tooth preparation: We’ll numb the area and gently prepare your teeth by removing about 0.3-0.5mm of the enamel. This microscopic enamel shaving doesn’t affect your tooth’s natural structure, but it’s necessary to ensure your veneers fit snugly.
  • Taking impressions: We will take precise scans of the prepared teeth and send the impressions to a lab where your custom veneers are fabricated. Until your new veneers are ready, we’ll cover your prepped teeth with interim veneers.
  • Veneer placement: Your veneers are ready after about 2-3 weeks. During the placement day, we’ll remove the temporaries and inspect the fit and appearance of your new veneers. After a few adjustments, we’ll bond your veneers to your teeth, providing an immediate, confident boost with results that last several years.

Once your veneers are in place, we’ll guide you on how to keep them looking great—think good brushing habits and regular dental visits. With the right care, porcelain veneers can last 10–15 years or more.

What are the benefits of porcelain veneers?

Porcelain veneers are the most popular choice in cosmetic dentistry because of their transformative outcomes. They’re the open secret to those glowing Hollywood smiles you admire in movies and magazines.

Here’s what makes them so exceptional:

  • Natural appearance: Porcelain veneers match the surrounding teeth perfectly for a seamless, lifelike result.
  • Quick results: Placing veneers takes only two dental visits, so you can enjoy a brand-new smile without months of waiting.
  • Stain-resistant: Unlike natural teeth, porcelain veneers are non-porous. This property means they can’t absorb stains from tea, coffee, wine, cola, and other substances.
  • Durability: Porcelain is exceptionally resistant to everyday wear, ensuring you enjoy your beautiful smile for many years.
  • Stronger teeth: Veneered teeth are stronger and more resistant to cracks, chips, and natural wear.
