Porcelain Veneers

If you want to improve your smile's aesthetics, porcelain veneers are an excellent treatment to consider. Dental veneers are durable and look great—just like natural teeth, only better!

Porcelain veneers do not require much preparation, and we can usually place them in two or three appointments. Our patients are delighted with the results of porcelain veneers and only wonder why they didn't get them sooner.

What Makes Porcelain Veneers Special?

Porcelain is a durable, slightly translucent material that closely resembles the appearance of natural tooth enamel. Veneers look so natural that people won't notice you have had any work done—they will just notice your beautiful smile!

Since veneers have a smooth, glass-like finish, they are also resistant to staining and attracting bacteria that can harm your teeth.

What Problems Can Porcelain Veneers Fix?

One of the great things about porcelain veneers is that they are so versatile and an excellent choice for correcting numerous cosmetic dental flaws, including:

Changing the shape of uneven teeth
Covering chips and cracks in teeth
Concealing gaps between your teeth
Correcting the appearance of slightly misaligned teeth

How Are Porcelain Veneers Applied?

Before we proceed with veneers, a dental exam is essential. We need to ensure your teeth are healthy so we can decide if porcelain veneers are the best choice for you. We will discuss your expectations so that we can make sure you get precisely the results you desire.

Once we decide that porcelain veneers are right for you, we recontour your tooth enamel so the veneers will cover your teeth perfectly. Next, we take dental impressions and help you choose the right shade of white for your final restorations.

Our dentist will place temporary veneers on your teeth and send the impressions to a trusted custom dental lab. Skilled technicians then carefully customize your veneers according to our exact specifications.

We will have you return to our office when your veneers are finished and bond them securely to the front surfaces of your teeth. Once they are in place, we polish and shape the veneers to perfection. With regular dental visits and proper at-home care, your veneers will keep your smile beautiful for many years.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long do porcelain veneers last?

Porcelain veneers have been known to last anywhere from several years to decades. Porcelain veneers are very strong and durable, but how long they last really depends on how well you take care of your teeth and your oral health in general. Proper oral hygiene plays a very important role in the longevity of your dental veneers. In general, though, you will get the most out of your veneers if you treat them with the same care as your natural teeth.
