For porcelain veneers, we evaluate tooth dimensions and consider the harmony of your smile with your facial features.
Anesthesia is optional, and we perform slight beveling to ensure the veneers blend seamlessly with your natural teeth, minimizing any noticeable transitions. We carefully select and blend different shades to achieve a natural look, understanding that teeth aren’t uniformly white.
After applying and contouring them, we polish them to create a realistic, glossy finish. For patients with a history of teeth grinding, we recommend using a night guard to protect your new veneers from damage.

About The Procedure
The Dental Veneers Procedure
The dental veneer procedure, with its long history of transforming smiles, remains a trusted cosmetic solution for achieving a radiant appearance. The process begins with a thorough cleaning and examination, followed by a personalized consultation to align your cosmetic goals with the best treatment options. Your dentist will select the ideal shade for your porcelain veneers, ensuring they match your natural teeth perfectly.
To prepare for the veneers, a minimal amount of enamel is carefully removed, allowing for a precise fit. The tooth surface is then prepped to enhance the bonding process. Each veneer is custom-made to fit your teeth flawlessly and is bonded using a specialized adhesive. After the veneers are securely in place, your dentist will shape, mold, and smooth them to ensure they blend seamlessly with your natural teeth.
The procedure is completed with a special light to harden the veneers, offering immediate and stunning results. Typically, the process takes 30 to 60 minutes per tooth and is both painless and long-lasting, giving you a beautiful, natural-looking smile. If you’re considering snap-on veneers for a temporary option, we can guide you through that process as well.
