Veneers

Porcelain Veneers can make a dramatic difference in your smile. With porcelain veneers you can change the color, size, and shape of your teeth as well as close gaps between teeth and mask stubborn stains or unattractive old fillings.

Porcelain veneers are ultra-thin shells of porcelain, which are bonded to the front of your teeth. This virtually painless procedure requires little or no anesthesia, and can be completed in two to three visits. Unlike composite bonding, veneers are highly resistant to permanent staining from coffee, tea, or even cigarette smoking. A very esthetically pleasing and natural appearance is achieved by utilizing a wafer-thin translucent porcelain with light reflective properties similar to tooth enamel.

Generally, patients need three appointments for the entire procedure: diagnosis and treatment planning, preparation, and bonding.
