Cosmetic Dentistry - Porcelain Veneers

Porcelain Veneers

Porcelain veneers are a thin shell of man made enamel that is permanently bonded to the front surface of the teeth. If you have crooked, worn, discolored, chipped, broken, or poorly shaped teeth, veneers can transform your smile into the smile of your dreams. Dr. Stevens and his staff will work closely with you to design a new smile that meets your individual desires. We are able to enhance your smile from “Natural Neutral” to “Hollywood White”, and anywhere in between. The choice is yours and we’re here to help. Our patients have commented time and time again that this is the best thing they’ve ever done for themselves. We see our patients leaving our office with much more self-confidence and pride in their appearance.

Porcelain Veneers

Porcelain veneers closely resemble natural tooth enamel because, much like real tooth enamel, porcelain veneers are translucent. This translucent effect is what gives teeth their luster. Color variations in porcelain veneers can be manipulated, providing patients with bright, natural looking smiles

Placing Dental Veneers

Placement of porcelain veneers is one that requires the skill, precision, and artistry of a talented cosmetic dentist. Having your smile made over with veneers usually takes about three office visits. In the first visit, we will first plan your new smile by determining what size, shape, and type of veneers will best complement your smile, face shape, and aesthetic desires. Next, Dr. Stevens will carefully prepare the teeth by removing a small amount of enamel to accommodate the veneer. He will then place temporary veneers to protect the teeth while the permanent version is crafted in a dental laboratory. When the permanent veneers are ready, you will return for your third visit to have your permanent veneers placed. This is the final step in your smile transformation, and you can leave the dentist=s office with a brand new, beautiful smile.
