Veneers

Repair the Damage...

Veneers are wafer-thin shells of porcelain that are bonded onto the front side of teeth to create a cosmetic improvement for a tooth. Porcelain veneers are routinely used by dentists as a way to make cosmetic changes for teeth that are discolored, worn, chipped, or misaligned.

We will carefully examine the current condition of your teeth and help you select the color, shape and length that are just right for you. You may also be advised about bleaching your teeth prior to veneer treatment.

In this procedure, we gently remove a small amount of enamel (approximately one millimeter) to make room for thin porcelain veneers. Impressions are taken of your teeth, and temporaries are fabricated if necessary. Your impressions are poured in stone to replicate your mouth.  Your veneers are then characterized to match your prescribed shape and shade.

On the final appointment, the porcelain veneers are bonded into place using a light curing composite. This procedure ensures that the veneers will remain firmly attached to your teeth.

Finally, your veneers are polished and your new smile is complete.
