Dental veneers are customized, super-thin porcelain or composite shells placed on the front teeth to improve their appearance. Placing composite veneers is simple, minimally invasive, and cost-effective, although the results aren’t as durable. Porcelain veneers use the highest grade of dental ceramic, offering durable outcomes and unique benefits like stain resistance.

Porcelain veneers are the ultimate solution for a smile makeover. Here is what veneers can do for your smile:

1. Whiten your teeth: Your teeth can lose their natural whiteness over time as you indulge in coffee, red wine, tobacco, and other staining substances. Your teeth can also become dulled by aging, trauma, and fluorosis. Professional teeth whitening is a simple solution for stained teeth, but not all tooth discoloration responds to whitening. The dentist can use porcelain veneers to disguise stubbornly stained teeth, giving you a brilliant white smile. Even better, porcelain doesn’t stain, ensuring you maintain your bright smile year after year.
2. Straighten teeth: Dr. Larsen uses Invisalign clear aligners to straighten teeth. However, mild crookedness doesn’t always need clear aligners. The dentist can mask the misalignment with porcelain veneers to create the illusion of a perfectly aligned smile. Known as “instant orthodontics,” porcelain veneers straighten your smile without waiting for months or years.
3. Cover gaps between teeth: Are you bothered by uneven spaces between your teeth? Achieve a perfectly spaced smile with porcelain veneers. The dentist places slightly larger veneers to cover the gaps, achieving a uniformly gapped smile.
4. Fix poorly shaped/sized teeth: Do you have a tooth that seems unusually small or oddly shaped compared to the neighboring teeth? These unique characteristics can sometimes make you feel self-conscious about your smile. Fortunately, porcelain veneers can help. Veneers can be custom-made to match your natural teeth’ size, shape, and color, creating a perfectly balanced appearance.
5. Cover dental chips/worn-down teeth: Our teeth go through a lot. Everyday use can cause enamel erosion, cracks, or chips. We can use dental veneers to address chipped or worn-down teeth. Dental veneers repair the damage and prevent it from progressing, maintaining your radiant, healthy smile. 

Placing porcelain veneers is seamless and takes 2-3 appointments. The dentist will examine your teeth, shave down the enamel, and take impressions to guide our dental lab during fabrication. Each veneer is handcrafted to match the exact specifications of your teeth. Meanwhile, the dentist will protect your teeth with interim veneers. When we receive your veneers, you’ll schedule another visit for placement. Once satisfied with the fit and appearance of your veneers, we’ll use durable adhesive to bond your veneers to your teeth.
