Before any enamel is touched, we build a digital smile design mockup so you can see roughly what your new smile will look like — and change your mind if it's not right.
Every Smile Center Dentistry office offering Dental Veneers is held to the same four standards, verified before the office ever joins our network.
You'll see a projected preview of your new smile before any tooth preparation begins.
We preserve as much natural enamel as the case allows, rather than defaulting to aggressive tooth reduction.
Porcelain veneers last longer and resist staining better; composite is faster and more affordable — we'll walk through the tradeoffs.
No per-tooth surprise fees once you've approved the treatment plan and price.
Every option below is available under the same upfront-pricing standard, whichever specific service ends up fitting your case.
We photograph your smile and build a digital preview showing projected shape, length, and shade changes. Bring reference photos if you have a specific look in mind — it helps the design process.
Porcelain is stain-resistant and closely mimics natural tooth translucency, typically lasting ten to fifteen years with care. Shade and translucency are matched carefully to look natural next to unaltered teeth.
Composite veneers are sculpted directly onto the tooth in a single visit, at a lower cost than porcelain. Composite doesn't resist staining quite as well as porcelain over the long term.
When enamel and tooth position allow, we use minimal or no-prep techniques that preserve nearly all of your natural tooth. This approach is reversible in a way that traditional veneers usually aren't.
We match shade and shape carefully so the repaired tooth blends with the teeth around it. This is usually the fastest and most affordable veneer case type.
We'll suggest bonding first when it's genuinely sufficient, rather than upselling to veneers by default. Bonding is reversible and can be touched up more easily over time.
Here's exactly what to expect, start to finish, for Dental Veneers at any of our affiliated offices.
We'll photograph your smile and start the digital mockup process at your first visit.
See your projected new smile on-screen and request adjustments before committing to prep work.
Preparation, when needed, is minimal and guided by the approved design.
Veneers are fitted, checked for bite and appearance, and polished to their final finish.
These are unedited, from patients who've actually been through Dental Veneers treatment with us in the past year.
“Seeing the mockup before anything happened to my teeth made this so much less nerve-wracking than I expected.”
“They talked me out of veneers on two teeth and suggested bonding instead, which saved me a decent amount of money.”
“Porcelain veneers matched my other teeth so well that people genuinely can't tell which ones are original.”
“Minimal-prep was an option for my case and they explained exactly why before recommending it over traditional veneers.”
“Fixed a single chipped front tooth in two visits and the shade match is honestly perfect.”
Straight answers to what people actually want to know before committing to Dental Veneers.
Porcelain veneers typically last ten to fifteen years with good care; composite veneers usually need replacement sooner.
Yes — a digital smile mockup is built and reviewed with you before any tooth preparation begins.
We'll tell you honestly which category your case falls into before starting.
Porcelain lasts longer and resists staining better; composite is faster and more affordable but needs more frequent upkeep.
A full smile redesign is only recommended when it genuinely fits your goals, not by default.
Your specific timeline depends on how many teeth are involved and the case complexity.
