These thin, custom-made shells, typically crafted from porcelain or composite resin, are designed to cover the front surface of your teeth. Veneers are an excellent solution for those looking to correct a wide range of dental imperfections, such as stained, chipped, misaligned, or gapped teeth. Tailored to match the color, shape, and size of your natural teeth, veneers offer a natural-looking, long-lasting, and minimally invasive solution to restore your smile's beauty and function.

Requires Minimal Tooth Preparation
Unlike other dental procedures that require extensive tooth preparation or alteration, veneers require minimal tooth preparation. Your dentist will only need to remove a small amount of your tooth's surface to make room for the veneer. This makes the process less invasive and more comfortable for you.

The Veneers Treatment Process
Step 1
Step 1
Consultation and Planning
The first step in getting veneers involves a thorough consultation with Dr. James Perkins. During this appointment, he will evaluate your oral health, discuss your cosmetic goals, and determine if veneers are the right solution for you. He may also take X-rays or make impressions of your mouth and teeth for planning the treatment.
Step 2
Step 2
Preparation
During the preparation stage, Dr. Perkins will gently remove about half a millimeter of enamel from the surface of your teeth. This is roughly equal to the thickness of the veneer to be added. Afterward, he will make an impression of your teeth, which will be sent to a dental lab where your veneers will be custom-made.
Step 3
Step 3
Bonding
Once your veneers are ready, Dr. Perkins will temporarily place them on your teeth to examine their fit and color, making any necessary adjustments. Once he's satisfied with how they look and fit, he will clean, polish, and etch your teeth to prepare them for the bonding process. The veneers are then applied using a special cement, which is hardened with a light beam to secure them in place.
