A veneer is a thin shell, usually porcelain or sometimes composite resin, bonded to the front of a tooth to reshape it, resize it, or change its color. Composite bonding is quicker and cheaper per tooth; porcelain holds up longer and mimics natural enamel more convincingly.
Getting veneers usually means a thin layer of enamel is removed first, so the shell sits flush instead of bulky. A digital or physical mock-up shows the expected shape and shade before the permanent veneers are fabricated.
Veneers won't stop new decay from forming on the rest of the tooth, so routine cleanings still matter just as much afterward. Patients who grind their teeth are usually advised to wear a nightguard to protect new veneers from chipping.
A digital mock-up shows your expected new smile before prep work or lab fabrication begins. You can request tweaks to the preview until the shape and shade feel right.
Long-lasting porcelain or same-day composite bonding, depending on budget and timeline. Neither option is pushed by default; the choice depends on what you're optimizing for.
Minimal-prep veneers preserve more natural tooth structure when your case allows it. Not every case is a fit, but it's evaluated before committing to a more invasive prep.
Veneers are matched to your natural teeth or your target brighter shade. A shade guide and sometimes a trial smile help confirm the choice before the final shells are made.
Our network specialists cover the full range of this procedure, from the routine case to the complicated one.
Lab-made shells bonded to the front of teeth, lasting ten to fifteen years with care.
Sculpted and bonded directly to the tooth in a single visit, at lower cost than porcelain.
Several front teeth veneered together for a coordinated, symmetrical result.
Ultra-thin shells requiring little to no enamel reduction for qualifying cases.
A single damaged veneer is usually addressed individually.
You see the planned shape and shade digitally before committing.
You describe what's going on in a minute or two; no automated menu to fight through first.

"Called and they were upfront that my usual office was booked, then found me somewhere open the same week."
"Didn't have to wait weeks like my old dentist. Got routed straight to a specialist who knew what to do."
"Was honest that the closest office was full and got me into a nearby one instead of leaving me stuck."
Because enamel is prepped away, veneers generally aren't meant to be removed and left bare.
A decade or more is typical, though grinding habits can shorten that.
A preview lets you fine-tune shape and shade before the final result is made.
Enamel prep is done under local anesthesia, so the process itself generally isn't painful.
Veneers cover just the front surface; crowns encase the entire visible tooth.
Cost varies by material choice and is quoted per tooth before you commit.
