What Are Porcelain Veneers

Porcelain veneers are thin, custom made shells placed over the front surface of your teeth to correct chips, gaps, or discoloration. Each veneer is shaped and shaded to match your natural smile, creating a uniform, polished appearance.

Signs You May Be a Good Candidate

  • You have chips, cracks, or gaps affecting your smile
  • Whitening has not fully addressed your tooth discoloration
  • You want a more uniform, symmetrical smile
  • Your teeth and gums are otherwise healthy
  • You are looking for a longer term cosmetic solution

What Is Included

  • A consultation to discuss your smile goals
  • An exam to confirm veneers are the right fit for you
  • Preparation of the teeth involved
  • Custom shade and shape matching for a natural look

If discoloration is your main concern and your teeth do not have chips or gaps, professional teeth whitening may be a simpler option. For smaller repairs, dental bonding is another alternative worth discussing with your dentist.
