A veneer is a thin shell, usually porcelain or sometimes composite resin, bonded to the front of a tooth to reshape it, resize it, or change its color. Composite bonding is quicker and cheaper per tooth; porcelain holds up longer and mimics natural enamel more convincingly.
A small amount of enamel prep is typical, which is part of why the process is considered permanent. Most patients see a preview before committing, so there are no surprises with the final look.
Veneers won't stop new decay from forming on the rest of the tooth, so routine cleanings still matter just as much afterward. Grinding at night is a common reason veneers chip early, so a nightguard is often recommended alongside the procedure.
A digital mock-up shows your expected new smile before prep work or lab fabrication begins. You can request tweaks to the preview until the shape and shade feel right.
Both material options are explained with their tradeoffs for your specific case. Neither option is pushed by default; the choice depends on what you're optimizing for.
Some cases qualify for ultra-thin veneers requiring little to no enamel removal. Not every case is a fit, but it's evaluated before committing to a more invasive prep.
Shape and shade are customized so the result looks deliberate, not uniformly artificial. A shade guide and sometimes a trial smile help confirm the choice before the final shells are made.
Our network specialists cover the full range of this procedure, from the routine case to the complicated one.
The longer-lasting option, resistant to staining and closer to natural enamel translucency.

A coordinator answers and asks a few quick questions about your specific case and how urgent it is.
We match you with a nearby specialist experienced in this exact procedure and check real-time openings.
The specialist examines your case, often with same-visit imaging, and gives you a cost estimate before starting anything.
Treatment proceeds on the agreed plan, with aftercare instructions and a follow-up if the case calls for one.
"Explained every step and the cost before doing anything. First visit that didn't feel rushed."
"Price on the phone matched the invoice exactly. No surprise charges at all."
"Was honest that the closest office was full and got me into a nearby one instead of leaving me stuck."
Because enamel is prepped away, veneers generally aren't meant to be removed and left bare.
A decade or more is typical, though grinding habits can shorten that.
A preview lets you fine-tune shape and shade before the final result is made.
Some mild sensitivity afterward is possible, but prep and bonding are done comfortably numbed.
Veneers cover just the front surface; crowns encase the entire visible tooth.
Cost varies by material choice and is quoted per tooth before you commit.
