A Natural-Looking Way to Enhance Your Smile
If you’re unhappy with the appearance of one or more teeth, porcelain veneers may be an option worth considering.
Veneers are thin, custom-made restorations bonded to the front surfaces of teeth. They can improve the appearance of teeth affected by discoloration, chips, wear, uneven shape, or certain spacing concerns.
What Can Veneers Address?
- Discoloration that does not respond well to whitening
- Chipped or worn teeth
- Uneven shape or size
- Minor alignment concerns
- Certain spaces between teeth
Veneers aren’t the best solution for every cosmetic concern. We’ll evaluate your teeth and gums and discuss whether veneers, bonding, whitening, or another approach makes the most sense.
Your Veneers Are Made for Your Smile
- Consultation and planning: We’ll discuss what you’d like to change, evaluate your oral health, and review the shape, color, and overall appearance you’re hoping to achieve.
- Preparing the teeth: Depending on the treatment plan, a small amount of enamel may be removed to create room for the veneer and allow a natural-looking fit.
- Creating the veneers: Impressions or digital scans are used to create custom veneers designed for your teeth and smile.
- Placing the veneers: We’ll carefully review the fit and appearance with you before final bonding.
Caring for Your Veneers
Continue brushing twice a day, cleaning between your teeth, and visiting us for regular examinations and cleanings. Avoid using your teeth to open packages or bite hard objects, and let us know if you clench or grind your teeth.
Are Veneers Right for You?
Veneers can be an excellent option for some patients, but many cosmetic concerns can also be addressed with whitening, bonding, or other treatment. We’ll explain the benefits and considerations of the reasonable options.
