What Are Porcelain Veneers?

Porcelain veneers are incredibly popular cosmetic dentistry procedures that can transform the appearance of your smile in as little as two visits. These thin shells are made from medical-grade porcelain and custom-fit over the front surface of your existing teeth. When in place, they give your smile a stunningly white and even appearance while also correcting minor chips, cracks, and gaps. Porcelain veneers can cover one tooth, a portion of your teeth, or all your teeth. 

 

How Much Do Veneers Cost?

When it comes to the cost of veneers, it can vary greatly depending on the treatment. At our office, we like to start with a consultation to understand your needs and provide an accurate estimate for your veneers. During this consultation, Dr. Houlik can review any existing dental issues you have and answer any questions about the potential cost based on what type of procedure will meet your needs. With our patients, we always keep affordability in mind while making sure they get the best possible results.

 

What is the Procedure?

One great benefit of veneers is that the procedure is painless and minimally invasive. The first thing we’ll do is have a consultation. We’ll discuss what you expect from the procedure and how long the results will last. 

We will smooth down your adjacent teeth to ensure we place the veneer in the right location and it won’t look awkward. We’ll take an impression and send it to a laboratory to design and manufacture your custom-made veneer to ensure a perfect fit. When they arrive at our office, we will verify the fit of each one and then bond them onto the surface of your natural enamel for a beautiful result! All of these steps must be carefully attended to if you want those dazzling pearly whites!

 

How Long Do Veneers Last?

Veneers can last very long if they’re cared for properly! With regular attention and professional maintenance, they can stay vibrant for ten to fifteen years. Cleaning your teeth twice a day, utilizing floss and mouthwash, and visiting us for regular checkups will all help ensure your veneers remain solid and lasting as long as possible. By following these basic steps, you’re investing in the future of your smile. Come see us today!
