What is a Veneer?

Veneers are thin shells of porcelain that are fabricated with the help of a dental laboratory.  They generally cover the tops and front of teeth.  Veneers can be used to whiten teeth as well as correct problems like chipped, misshapen, crooked or worn teeth.

How are they installed?

Porcelain veneers are custom created to precisely fit your teeth.  On your first visit, we carefully remove a thin layer of enamel. Then we take impressions of your teeth.  A dental lab uses these impressions to build a model of your teeth, then creates the veneers on that model.  

Once they are in place, veneers virtually become part of your teeth.  You can use them like you would your won teeth, because the bond is extremely strong.  Your final result is a more beautiful, natural-looking new smile.
