Veneers Q & A

What are veneers?

Veneers are thin, custom-made coverings placed over the front of your teeth to improve their appearance. Typically made from porcelain or resin, veneers can fix issues like stained, chipped, or slightly uneven teeth. They bond to your natural teeth to create a smooth, bright smile.

Why should I consider veneers?

Veneers offer a quick, minimally invasive solution to boosting your smile’s appearance without downtime. You may consider veneers if you have:

Stained or discolored teeth that whitening treatments can’t resolve
Chipped or cracked teeth
Gaps between your teeth
Visibly worn teeth
Irregularly shaped teeth
Uneven teeth
Minor misalignment that doesn't require braces
Teeth that look too small or too large for your smile
Teeth with surface pitting or grooves
A desire for a more uniform, symmetrical smile

If you’re looking for a long-lasting, natural-looking way to enhance your smile, veneers could be the perfect solution.

What does getting veneers involve?

Placing veneers usually only takes 1-3 dental visits. During your first trip to Advanced Implant & Cosmetic Dentistry, your dentist examines your teeth and discusses your goals for your smile. They may take X-rays or impressions to get a clear picture of your teeth. Then, they gently remove a small amount of enamel from the surface of your teeth to make room for the veneers.

Next, your dentist takes detailed impressions of your teeth to create your custom veneers. You may receive temporary veneers while waiting for the permanent ones. Once your veneers are ready, your dentist bonds them to your teeth for a comfortable fit and natural look. You’ll leave the office with a brighter, more uniform smile.

Should I choose veneers or teeth whitening?

One of the biggest advantages of veneers is that they give you a bright, white smile that lasts much longer and resists new stains. While teeth whitening can fade over time and may need touch-ups, veneers are made from stain-resistant materials that keep your smile looking fresh for years.

If you're mainly focused on long-term results and want to fix other imperfections like chips or gaps, veneers might be the better choice. However, if you’re just looking to brighten your teeth quickly, teeth whitening is a simple, noninvasive option. Your dentist can help guide you toward the best decision based on your needs.
