We start with a one-on-one consultation to understand your goals and evaluate your teeth. We’ll discuss the look you want to achieve and determine if veneers are the best fit. Digital imaging or mock-ups may be used to help you visualize your new smile.
To make room for the veneers, a small amount of enamel is gently removed from each tooth. We then take precise impressions to send to the dental lab. Temporary veneers may be placed while your custom ones are being crafted.
Once your veneers are ready, we’ll ensure the color, shape, and fit are perfect. Then, each veneer is bonded securely to your tooth and polished for a smooth, natural appearance. The result is an instantly upgraded smile you’ll love to show off.
FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions
Will veneers look natural?
Absolutely. Our veneers are custom-crafted to match your natural teeth in color, shape, and size. We work closely with skilled dental labs to ensure your new smile looks beautiful and authentic—not fake or overly white.
Can I get veneers on just one or two teeth?
Yes. Veneers can be placed on a single tooth to correct discoloration or a chip, or on multiple teeth for a complete smile makeover. During your consultation, we’ll help you decide what’s best for your needs and budget.
Do veneers hurt?
Most patients find the process to be very comfortable. Some may experience slight sensitivity after the preparation visit, but this is temporary. We use gentle techniques and can offer local anesthesia if needed.
Are veneers permanent?
Veneers are considered a permanent cosmetic treatment because a thin layer of enamel is removed from your teeth to place them. While veneers may eventually need to be replaced, they typically last 10–15 years or longer with good care.
