What Are Dental Veneers?

Dental veneers are wafer-thin, custom-made shells of tooth-colored porcelain designed to cover the front surface of teeth to improve your appearance. Veneers can essentially erase an array of flaws, including:
- Discolored teeth
- Teeth that are worn down
- Teeth that are chipped or broken
- Teeth that are misaligned, uneven, or irregularly shaped
- Teeth with gaps between them
Most smiles are improved with 8-10 veneers. Some people choose to get more, some only opt for veneers on their upper teeth, while others also get the lower teeth treated. You can even select a single veneer to cover a particularly unattractive tooth.
The Process of Getting Veneers

The process starts with a cosmetic consultation. Your dentist inspects your teeth and overall oral health, you explain what you want to achieve, and then they determine if you are a viable candidate for veneers. No matter what, the dentist will explain your options and devise a treatment plan.
To prepare for a veneer, the dentist will trim about half a millimeter of enamel from your existing tooth’s surface. Beforehand, they will help you determine if you need a local anesthetic. Then, they will create an impression of your teeth that is sent to a trusted dental lab where your veneers will be crafted.
In 1-2 weeks, you return to the office to get your veneers bonded. First, your veneer will be temporarily placed to ensure it is the proper color and fit, while adjustments will be made as needed. The teeth receiving veneers with be polished to roughen the surface and allow the adhesive to bond stronger. After the cement is applied, a blue light beam will harden it quickly to secure the bond. From there, your bite is checked, and final adjustments are made to your brand-new smile!
