A veneer is a thin shell — usually porcelain, sometimes composite resin — bonded to the front surface of a tooth to correct its shape, size, or color. Porcelain veneers resist staining better and last longer, typically ten to fifteen years, while composite veneers cost less and can be completed in a single visit.
A thin layer of enamel is typically prepped off before bonding, which is why the process is considered permanent rather than reversible. Before committing, most patients see a preview — either digital or a temporary trial veneer — so there are no surprises with the final look.
Getting veneers doesn't replace the need for normal hygiene — the tooth underneath still needs the same care as any other. Grinding at night is one of the more common reasons veneers chip early, so a nightguard is often recommended alongside the procedure.
You approve the shape and shade digitally before the lab fabricates the final porcelain shells.
Both material options are available, with your provider explaining the tradeoffs for your specific case.
Minimal-prep veneers preserve more natural tooth structure when your case allows for it.
Shape and shade are customized so veneers look intentional, not artificially uniform.
Our network specialists cover the full range of this procedure, from the routine case to the complicated one.
Lab-fabricated shells bonded to the front of teeth, lasting ten to fifteen years with proper care.
Sculpted and bonded directly to the tooth in a single visit, at a lower cost than porcelain.
Several front teeth are veneered together for a coordinated, symmetrical smile redesign.
Ultra-thin shells that require little to no enamel reduction for qualifying cases.
A single damaged veneer is typically addressed individually rather than requiring a full redo.

"They walked me through the cost and the procedure before I agreed to anything. Appreciated that."
"Didn't have to wait weeks like my old dentist. Straight to a specialist who knew exactly what to do."
"No upsells, no pressure. Just the treatment I needed at the price I was told."
Since a thin layer of enamel is typically removed to fit them, veneers are considered a permanent, irreversible procedure.
With good hygiene, porcelain veneers commonly last ten to fifteen years before needing replacement.
A digital preview lets you fine-tune shape and shade so the result looks intentional rather than obviously fake.
Some mild sensitivity is possible afterward, but the prep and bonding process is done comfortably numbed.
Veneers cover just the front surface of a tooth, while crowns encase the entire visible tooth structure.
Cost varies by material — porcelain versus composite — and is quoted per tooth before you commit.
