During your first visit, we’ll discuss your goals and evaluate your teeth to ensure veneers are the right option for you. We may take X-rays or impressions of your teeth to plan the treatment.
Impressions of your teeth are taken, and we’ll work with you to choose the right shade for your veneers. These impressions are sent to a lab for porcelain veneers or directly shaped during your appointment for composite veneers.
If you’re getting porcelain veneers, we’ll provide temporary veneers to protect your teeth while your permanent ones are being created.
Once your custom veneers are ready, we’ll make sure they fit perfectly. The veneers are then carefully bonded to your teeth using a special adhesive, and a light is used to harden the bond.
After the veneers are placed, we’ll ensure they fit comfortably and provide a natural appearance. You’ll leave with a beautiful new smile!

Veneers can last anywhere from 10 to 15 years with proper care. Porcelain veneers are generally more durable than composite veneers.
Yes, dental veneers are designed to blend seamlessly with your natural teeth. Porcelain veneers, in particular, are known for their natural, tooth-like appearance.
Veneers are a long-term solution, but they are not permanent. They may need to be replaced after a few years due to normal wear and tear.
Veneers do not damage your teeth when applied correctly. For porcelain veneers, a small amount of enamel is removed to ensure a proper fit, though the procedure remains minimally invasive.
Veneers are stain-resistant, but once placed, they cannot be whitened. It’s best to ensure your natural teeth are whitened to your desired shade before getting veneers.
Veneers are easy to care for. Regular brushing, flossing, and routine dental visits will help maintain their appearance and longevity. Avoid biting down on hard objects or using your teeth as tools to prevent any damage.
