Porcelain Veneers Explained
Veneers are thin shells of porcelain or ceramic bonded to the front surfaces of teeth to improve color, shape, size, and alignment. They are custom-designed to match your natural teeth and provide a durable, stain-resistant result that can last 10 to 15 years or longer with proper care.
Veneers are ideal for teeth with stubborn discoloration, chips, minor misalignment, gaps, or uneven edges that do not respond to whitening or bonding alone.

Request a ConsultationThe Veneer Process
Consultation and smile design: Discuss goals, take photos, and preview results with digital mockups.
Tooth preparation: A thin layer of enamel is gently removed under local anesthesia.
Impressions or digital scans: Precise measurements are sent to the lab for custom fabrication.
Temporary veneers: Protect prepared teeth while permanent veneers are crafted.
Bonding: The final veneers are tried in, adjusted for fit and color, and then permanently bonded.
Follow-up: The bite is checked, and any final adjustments are made.
What to Expect
The process typically takes two to three visits over two to three weeks. Local anesthesia keeps you comfortable during preparation. Mild sensitivity is possible for a few days after bonding.
Brush and floss daily to maintain veneer appearance.
Avoid biting hard objects like ice, pens, or fingernails.
Wear a nightguard if you clench or grind your teeth.
Schedule regular checkups to monitor veneer condition.
