What Are Porcelain Veneers?

Porcelain veneers are thin shells bonded to the front of teeth. They’re made of durable porcelain that mimics your teeth’s natural color, shape, and appearance.  Dental veneers create a seamless, even look by covering imperfections like stains, gaps, chips, and crooked teeth.

Benefits of Porcelain Veneers

There are many benefits to receiving porcelain veneers, including:

  • Personalized treatment plan
  • Custom-made for you
  • Natural looking
  • Stain and fracture-resistant
  • Enhance your smile and confidence
  • Little tooth reduction needed

The Veneer Process Step-by-Step

Consultation

During this initial visit, we’ll focus on assessing your teeth’s health and structure. Our dentist will evaluate if you’re a good candidate for veneers and discuss any pre-treatments needed, like teeth whitening. We’ll also discuss desired results and options for veneer material and shape.

Tooth Preparation 

At the second visit, Dr. Chen will prepare your teeth for the veneers by removing minimal volume from the outer enamel. He’ll take impressions of your prepared teeth and send those along with your shade selection to our dental lab. Your custom veneers are expertly fabricated within two to three weeks.

Dental Veneer Placement

At your placement appointment, we’ll check the fit and color of the veneers before permanently bonding them onto your teeth with a strong, light-cured resin adhesive. Dr. Chen will make adjustments to ensure proper bite and comfort. We’ll make sure you’re happy with your smile transformation before leaving our office!

  • Brush your teeth twice a day with a soft-bristle brush and non-abrasive toothpaste
