What Types of Dental Veneers Do We Offer?

Let us examine your teeth and recommend the option that best fits your smile and needs.
Types of Veneers by Material:

Porcelain Veneers

Thin, custom-made shells that are bonded to the front of your teeth to improve their color, shape, size, and overall appearance. They are designed to provide a durable, natural-looking result.
Made from tooth-colored composite resin that is shaped directly on your teeth. They can be used to address minor chips, discoloration, gaps, or changes in tooth shape.
These fit over your existing teeth to temporarily change the appearance of your smile. They are not permanently bonded to your teeth and are generally considered a temporary cosmetic option.
Types of Veneers by Tooth Preparation:
Non-Prep Veneers
Ultra-thin veneers that may be placed with little or no removal of natural tooth enamel, depending on your teeth and cosmetic goals.
These require a small amount of enamel preparation to create the right space, fit, and shape for a natural-looking result.

Frequently
Asked Questions

Dental veneers are thin, custom-made coverings placed over the front surface of teeth to improve their color, shape, size, or overall appearance. They are commonly used to address concerns such as discoloration, chips, small gaps, worn edges, or uneven teeth.
The lifespan of veneers depends on the type, material, oral habits, and how well they are cared for. Porcelain veneers commonly last around 10-15 years or longer, while composite veneers may last around 4-8 years. No-prep veneers can often last around 5-10 years, while temporary veneers are designed to last only a few weeks or months. Regular dental care and good oral hygiene can help extend their lifespan.
The procedure is generally comfortable, and local anesthesia may be used when needed. Some sensitivity can occur afterward, but your dentist will guide you through the recovery.
They are custom-made to match your smile. Your dentist will consider the color, shape, size, and overall appearance of your teeth to create a natural-looking result.
Veneers do not inherently harm your teeth when properly planned and placed. Some tooth preparation may be needed depending on the type you choose, which is why your dentist will first assess whether veneers are appropriate for you.
Care for them much like your natural teeth by brushing twice a day, flossing daily, and keeping up with regular dental visits. It’s better to avoid using your teeth to open packages.
Veneers can improve the appearance of slightly crooked or uneven teeth, but they do not physically straighten them. More significant alignment concerns may require orthodontic treatment.
The number depends on your goals and the teeth you want to improve. Some patients may need only one or two, while others may choose several to create a more balanced smile. Your dentist will assess your teeth and get a better idea of what to recommend.
Yes, they can chip or break, especially when exposed to excessive force. Avoid biting hard objects or opening packages with your teeth, and let your dentist know if you notice any damage.
The cost varies based on the type and number of veneers you need and your individual treatment plan. We’ll explain the estimated cost and what is included before treatment begins.
Dental insurance typically does not cover veneers when they are placed for cosmetic reasons. Coverage can vary by plan. Our team can help you understand what your benefits may cover.
It depends on what you want to improve. Whitening mainly changes tooth color, while bonding can correct smaller chips, gaps, or shape concerns. Veneers can address several cosmetic concerns at once and generally offer a more durable, longer-lasting result. Your dentist can help you compare the options based on your teeth and goals.
Traditional veneers are generally considered a permanent treatment because a small amount of enamel may be removed before placement. Non-prep veneers may require little or no enamel removal in suitable cases, but they are still intended as a long-term cosmetic treatment. Your dentist can explain how much preparation your teeth may need before you decide.
