Dental veneers are a versatile and effective solution for enhancing the appearance of your smile. These thin, custom-made shells are designed to cover the front surface of your teeth, improving their shape, size and color. Whether you want to correct discoloration, close small gaps or restore chipped teeth, veneers can provide a natural-looking and long-lasting improvement.

Why Choose Veneers?

Veneers are an excellent option for patients looking to achieve a more attractive smile without undergoing extensive dental procedures. If you have teeth that are stained, misaligned, worn down or uneven, veneers can create a uniform, bright and symmetrical appearance. Unlike teeth whitening treatments, veneers provide a permanent solution for deep stains that do not respond to traditional whitening methods. Additionally, they can help reshape teeth that are irregular or too small, giving you a balanced and confident smile.

The Veneer Process

The process of getting veneers usually requires two appointments to complete. During your initial consultation, Dr. Hunter Johnson will discuss your desired results and examine your teeth to determine if veneers are the right choice. Next, a small amount of enamel is removed from the front of your teeth to ensure a seamless fit. Impressions are then taken and sent to a dental lab where your custom veneers are crafted. Once your veneers are ready, our dentist will bond them to your teeth, making final adjustments to ensure a comfortable and natural look.

Porcelain vs. Composite Veneers

Veneers are typically made from either porcelain or composite resin. Porcelain veneers are the preferred choice due to their strength, durability and natural translucency that closely resemble real tooth enamel. They are also highly resistant to staining, making them a great long-term solution. Composite veneers, while more affordable, require more maintenance and are not as stain resistant as porcelain. Our dentist will help determine which material best suits your needs based on your goals and lifestyle.

Frequently Asked Questions About Dental Veneers

Dental veneers typically last between 10 and 15 years with proper care. Their lifespan depends on factors such as oral hygiene, eating habits and avoiding habits like nail-biting or teeth grinding. Regular dental checkups and good at-home care can help extend the longevity of your veneers.

How long do dental veneers last?
Veneers do not require special care beyond a good oral hygiene routine. Brushing twice a day, flossing daily and avoiding excessive force on your teeth, such as chewing on ice or hard foods, can help maintain their condition. Routine dental visits are essential to monitor their fit and integrity.

Do dental veneers require special care?
Porcelain veneers are not reversible because a small amount of enamel is removed to place them. Once placed, they will always need to be covered with a veneer or another restoration. However, composite veneers may sometimes be removed or replaced more easily, depending on the situation.

Are veneers reversible?
Yes, veneers allow you to eat most foods comfortably. However, it is best to avoid biting into hard foods like ice, nuts or hard candies, as these can damage the veneers. Sticky foods should also be eaten with care to prevent unnecessary stress on the bonded surfaces.
