Everybody deserves a smile they love. So, if there are aspects of yours that you don’t like, including cracked teeth, persistent stains, gaps or misalignment, you don’t have to live with them.

With dental veneers, dentists can transform your smile into one you will love. These thin, all-porcelain shells cover your existing tooth structure and completely redesign your smile.

At the diagnostic appointment, you and your dentist will discuss the shape and look of the smile you would like to achieve with veneers. After this initial appointment, transforming your smile usually only takes two more appointments to complete.

Once your dentist has prepared your teeth, he or she will take an impression of your mouth and send it to an outside lab for fabrication – a process that takes about two weeks. While you wait for your veneers to be fabricated, you will be provided with temporary veneers to protect your teeth. 

At your second appointment, your final veneers will be bonded to your tooth structure to create an attractive smile that you will be proud to show off.

 

Sometimes, the teeth will need to have full crowns placed. If this is necessary, they can also be made entirely out of porcelain with no metal. ?
