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. Composite bonding is faster and cheaper per tooth, while porcelain holds up longer and mimics natural enamel translucency more convincingly.
A thin layer of enamel is typically prepped off before bonding, which is why the process is considered permanent rather than reversible. A same-visit digital mock-up shows you the expected shape and shade before the permanent veneers are fabricated in a lab.
Getting veneers doesn't replace the need for normal hygiene — the tooth underneath still needs the same care as any other. Patients who grind their teeth are usually advised to wear a nightguard to protect the new veneers from chipping.
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.
Veneers are shade-matched to your natural teeth or your desired brighter target shade.
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 closely mimicking natural enamel.
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.

Since a thin layer of enamel is typically removed to fit them, veneers are considered a permanent, irreversible procedure.
Lifespan varies by habits like grinding, but a decade or more is typical for porcelain.
Modern porcelain closely mimics natural enamel translucency, and shade-matching avoids an artificial, overly white look.
Some mild sensitivity is possible afterward, but the prep and bonding process is done comfortably numbed.
Crowns are typically used for more structurally damaged teeth; veneers are a cosmetic front-surface solution.
Cost varies by material — porcelain versus composite — and is quoted per tooth before you commit.
