Thanks to modern dental capabilities, patients seeking smile makeovers are able to choose from a range of cosmetic dental treatments. This ensures cosmetic patients will be comfortable with the procedure, anticipate treatment results, and end with the smile they’ve been imagining. Cosmetic treatment doesn’t need to be invasive or highly involved to bear stunning results. Porcelain veneers make it possible to gain an entirely new smile with minimal loss of natural tooth structure.
How Do Porcelain Veneers Work?
Dental veneers are thin facings (coverings) that bond to natural teeth. Because of their lightness and thinness, they are able to fit over natural teeth with only slight tooth reduction. Whereas crowns replace more of a tooth’s structure, veneers essentially create new outer enamel layers. While they are less durable than crowns, they are ideal for front teeth because they are aesthetically superior to other restorations. Porcelain veneers look, feel, and behave like natural front teeth. They reflect light in the way enamel does, are slightly translucent, and will match your natural tooth color precisely. Veneers are the conservative way to alter an entire smile.
Veneers will repair:
- Chipped teeth
- Broken teeth
- Cracked teeth
- Stained teeth that refuse to whiten
- Misshapen teeth
- Crooked teeth (that’s right, veneers can even resolve minor misalignment – no orthodontics necessary!)
- Short front teeth
Porcelain veneers take only two appointments to receive. They will create your most beautiful smile in a brief time, getting you back to your regular life with renewed confidence and zeal.

How Digital Impressions Transform Treatment
Traditional impressions leave much to be desired. Having to deal with the goop and mess associated with the process is unpleasant for many patients, especially those with a sensitive gag reflex or dental anxiety.
Digital impressions transform your treatment planning. Our dentists take virtual, highly accurate 3D impressions of your teeth and the inside of your mouth.
Capturing precise, detailed images to aid in veneer treatment planning helps us provide the best possible results. This helps us make fewer adjustments along the way and streamline your treatment process.
