Benefits of Porcelain Veneers
- Exceptional Aesthetics: Ultra-thin, light-reflective porcelain mimics natural enamel for a lifelike appearance.
- Stain Resistance: Porcelain resists coffee, tea, and tobacco stains far better than natural tooth enamel.
- Minimally Invasive: Only a small amount of enamel is gently removed to accommodate each veneer.
- Long-Lasting Results: With proper care, veneers can beautify your smile for 10–15 years or more.
Porcelain Veneer Process
-
Personalized Consultation
Dr. Martin evaluates your smile goals, takes digital photographs, and uses 3D scans to plan each veneer. -
Tooth Preparation
A conservative layer of enamel is removed to create space for the veneer, ensuring a natural contour and fit. -
Digital Design & Shade Selection
Using CAD/CAM technology, we design each veneer to match your facial features and select a shade that complements your smile. -
Temporary Veneers (if needed)
For multi-tooth cases, provisional veneers protect prepared teeth while your custom porcelain restorations are fabricated. -
Final Bonding
Dr. Martin bonds each veneer with precision, adjusts the bite, and polishes for a seamless finish.
FAQs
How long do porcelain veneers last?
With proper care—brushing twice daily, flossing, and routine dental check-ups—veneers typically last 5–15 years; many patients enjoy their smiles even longer.
What is the procedure timeline for getting veneers?
Most veneer cases require 2–3 visits over 2–4 weeks:
- Consultation & Planning – Smile design, shade selection, digital scans
- Tooth Preparation & Impression – Minimal enamel removal and mock-up try-in
- Bonding Appointment – Final placement and polish of custom veneers
How much do porcelain veneers cost and will insurance cover them?
Porcelain veneers generally range from $1,500 to $3,000 per tooth, depending on complexity and materials. Since veneers are considered cosmetic, most dental plans do not cover the cost, but our team can review your benefits and discuss financing options.
How should I care for my porcelain veneers?
- Brush twice daily with a non-abrasive toothpaste and soft-bristled brush
- Floss gently at the veneer margins to prevent plaque buildup
- Avoid biting hard objects (e.g., ice, fingernails, pen caps)
- Wear a nightguard if you grind your teeth
- Attend biannual cleanings and exams to monitor fit and integrity
