Dental Veneers
Dental veneers provide an excellent solution if you are looking to enhance your smile. They are a popular cosmetic treatment because of their overall effectiveness and ease of use.
Improve the Appearance of Your Smile
Dental veneers offer an excellent solution for issues like crowded, chipped, or stained teeth. These thin shells are placed on the front surface of teeth to enhance their appearance, concealing imperfections and promoting a straight and uniform look.
Veneers can be customized to match your tooth color and are applied with minimal discomfort. They boast strength and durability, lasting for many years before needing replacement or repairs.
Each set of dental veneers is tailored to your specific requirements, ensuring you achieve your desired results. This involves two appointments: the first to take scans of your teeth and the second to apply and fine-tune the veneers for a perfect fit.

Veneers vs. crowns—what’s the difference?
Dental veneers and dental crowns are both used for cosmetic purposes—to resolve chips, stains, discoloration, or crooked teeth. The main difference between the two is that dental crowns cover the entire tooth surface where veneers only cover the front portion of the tooth. Crowns (2 mm) are much thicker than veneers (1 mm) and the price for each is similar. Crowns provide additional support to damaged teeth where veneers do not. However, veneers are a much less invasive procedure and require less removal of the original tooth structure.
Veneers and crowns are both a great solution for patients looking to get a white, straight smile that looks and feels natural. If you’re interested, but unsure which option is right for you, contact our office today to schedule a consultation.

How do dental veneers work?
Dental veneers consist of ultra-thin shells applied to the front surfaces of teeth. In some cases, a minor enamel reduction may be needed before their placement, depending on the chosen style of veneers. Once attached, veneers conceal noticeable imperfections and can refine tooth alignment, even adjusting thickness to enhance spacing.
Application is straightforward, involving tooth preparation followed by secure placement using a dental adhesive.

How much do dental veneers cost?
Veneers typically are not covered by insurance since they are considered a cosmetic procedure. However, costs can range depending on your dentist. As an average, traditional dental veneers range from $925 to $2,500 per tooth and no-prep dental veneers cost around $800 to $2000 per tooth.

What is the difference between porcelain veneers and composite veneers?
The two primary types of dental veneers are composite veneers and porcelain veneers, both offering effective solutions for enhancing your smile.
Composite veneers are crafted in-office from tooth-colored resin and applied directly onto the teeth. They are usually more cost-effective and quicker to apply compared to porcelain veneers, effectively concealing many aesthetic concerns.
Porcelain veneers, on the other hand, are custom-made from porcelain to perfectly fit your teeth. Typically fabricated in a laboratory and then sent to our office. Porcelain veneers boast increased longevity due to their durable material, provide a natural appearance, and are capable of addressing larger cosmetic issues such as severely stained teeth or misaligned teeth.
