Veneers

In addition to color, the size, shape and alignment of your teeth also affect your smile. Stained, chipped, or crooked teeth can keep you from smiling as frequently as you should. We offer quick and accessible treatment to deliver you the confident smile you deserve. If you would like to mask certain flaws on your teeth, porcelain veneers may be the option for you.

The Porcelain Veneers Procedure

Veneers are strong porcelain shells painlessly bonded to the outside of your teeth. They are custom made to fit and look like natural teeth.

The placement process requires three stages:

Planning

The first stage involves planning. In the initial visit, you will collaborate with Dr. DeWitt to determine the veneer shape, size, and shade.

Preparation

The second stage requires preparing. Dr. DeWitt will need to remove a small amount of enamel from your designated teeth to make room for the veneers. You will be fitted with temporary veneers, which will protect your tooth while the veneers are being prepared in the lab.

Placement

The last stage is the actual placing of the veneers. When you are happy with the look and feel, light energy will be used to harden the adhesive.
