Veneers are very thin, tooth-shaped pieces of durable porcelain that are custom-made for shape and color by a professional dental laboratory. They are bonded onto the front of teeth to create a beautiful and attractive smile.

Veneers can completely reshape your teeth and smile, often serving as an alternative to crowns. They are ideal for treating many dental conditions. While veneers are not permanent, they are very durable and can last many years, providing a long-lasting, beautiful smile.

What Getting Porcelain Veneers Involves

The veneer process usually requires two visits, with little or no anesthesia needed. During the first visit, the teeth are lightly buffed and shaped to allow for the thickness of the veneer. An impression or mold of the teeth is taken, and you and your dentist will choose the desired shade.

During the second visit, the teeth are cleansed with special liquids to ensure a durable bond. Bonding cement is placed between the tooth and veneer, and a special light is used to harden and set the bond.

You will receive care instructions for your veneers. Proper brushing, flossing, and regular dental visits will help maximize the lifespan of your new veneers.
