Home - Dental Services - Porcelain Veneers
A dental veneer is a thin, durable porcelain shell that is custom-fabricated to cover the front of a tooth. Veneers can restore the appearance of teeth with chips, cracks, and stains, can close small gaps between the teeth, and can reshape misshapen or slightly misaligned teeth.
Veneers are a popular choice for cosmetic enhancement because they are a straightforward and natural-looking way to create a brighter and more uniform smile. The veneer process is completed over several appointments:
● ConsultationYou and your dentist discuss your goals for your smile and whether you’re a good candidate for veneers.
● ExaminationYour teeth and gums are examined. Measurements, photographs, X-rays, and impressions are taken as needed.
● PreparationA small amount of enamel is removed from the front of the tooth so that the veneer will fit flush with the tooth surface. An impression is taken of the prepared tooth and the teeth around it, and a color is chosen for the porcelain.
