Veneers

There's no reason to put up with gaps in your teeth or with teeth that are stained, badly shaped, or crooked. Today, a veneer placed on top of your teeth can correct nature's mistake or the results of an injury and help you have a beautiful smile.

What Are Veneers?

Veneers are thin, custom-made shells crafted of tooth-colored materials designed to cover the front side of your teeth. They're made by a skilled dental technician working from a precise model provided by your dentist.

Minimal-Prep and No-Prep Options

In the past, veneer treatment was usually an irreversible process because it's necessary to remove a small amount of enamel from your teeth to accommodate the shell. But thanks to new innovations in dental materials, some patients can now get veneers completed with minimal or no drilling (such as Lumineers).

Caring for Your Veneers

Your dentist may recommend that you avoid some foods and beverages that may stain or discolor your veneers, such as coffee, tea, or red wine. Sometimes a veneer might chip or fracture, so chewing hard foods with your veneers is not recommended.
