Dental veneers are thin, custom-made shells designed to cover the front surface of your teeth, enhancing your smile. These shells are typically made from porcelain or resin composite materials. Veneers offer a natural look and can effectively address various dental imperfections, making them a popular choice for many patients. Our dentists may recommend veneers as a solution for issues such as:
- Gaps and spaces between the teeth
- Severely stained or discolored teeth
- Irregularly shaped or slightly misaligned teeth
- Repairing tooth damage such as chipped, broken, fractured or worn down teeth
During your initial visit, Dr. Rajeev Gowda or Dr. Julia LeCavalier will discuss your smile goals and determine if veneers are the right option for you. Your veneers will typically take two appointments to complete – one where impressions are taken and one where the final veneers are bonded into place. At the first visit, a small amount of tooth enamel will be removed to accommodate the veneer, and our dentists will help you choose the right shade of white for them. You can expect your final veneers to be long-lasting and durable, ensuring that you can enjoy a beautiful smile for years to come.
Maintaining your veneers following treatment is straightforward and involves:
- Maintaining Good Oral Hygiene: Brush and floss regularly to keep your veneers and surrounding teeth clean.
- Avoiding Hard Foods: Prevent damage by avoiding hard foods and not using your teeth as tools.
- Regular Dental Visits: Visit our office regularly for checkups and professional cleanings to ensure your veneers and overall dental health remain in top condition.

When are dental veneers recommended?
Dental veneers are recommended when you want to address aesthetic concerns such as stained, chipped or misaligned teeth.
