Custom Shells Capable of Enhancing Any Smile
Porcelain veneers are custom-made, durable covers that are bonded to the surface of teeth, providing a natural-looking, flawless smile. They are commonly used to repair chipped, decayed, or stained teeth, as well as to reshape teeth or close gaps in a smile. They can sometimes be chosen instead of crowns; especially for patients seeking a simpler approach to cosmetic restoration. To prepare the tooth for a veneer, a minimal amount of enamel is ground down to accommodate its placement. Not to worry though, this procedure is less invasive than a typical filling.
What Are The Advantages Of Same-Day Veneers?
Before technological advancements, getting veneers was a lengthy process requiring 2 to 3 appointments and uncomfortable temporary veneers. However, thanks to new techniques and equipment, obtaining veneers is now more seamless than ever.
Same-Day Veneers offer the following advantages:
- Utilizing an efficient, accurate, and comfortable digital 3D scan, there is no longer a need for messy impressions.
- Complete treatment in as little as just one simple visit.
- The preservation of more of your natural tooth structure, due to less drilling being required thanks to modern advancements in the procedure.
The Same-Day Veneer Procedure
Get A Closer Look.
Before beginning the process, we’re eager to learn about your reasons and goals for improving your smile. This understanding allows us to determine if veneers are the best choice for achieving your desired results. We may also suggest a treatment plan to ensure your gums are healthy and provide a solid foundation for your veneers.
Lay the Foundation.
To create space for your veneer, a thin layer of enamel is removed from the surface of your tooth. Although the amount of enamel removed is minimal, the area is numbed to ensure you don’t feel any discomfort. We then use a highly accurate digital scan of the treated area, eliminating the need for messy impressions or bulky trays in your mouth.
Set in Stone.
A detailed digital model of your veneers is created using a 3D scan. These veneers are then milled on-site using our custom in-house technology, ensuring a perfect fit when they are permanently bonded to your teeth. Depending on the number of veneers needed, the entire process can be completed in as little as one appointment.

Frequently Asked Questions
A veneer is a custom-made, shell-like layer of porcelain that is placed over a tooth. Veneers not only enhance the aesthetic of a smile but also strengthen and restore damaged teeth.
Ultimately, the decision depends on your preferences. You may choose to place veneers only on teeth that are more visible when smiling, or you may opt for a more comprehensive approach.
Veneers are bonded to your teeth permanently and require the same level of care as your natural teeth. With regular brushing, flossing, and professional check-ups, veneers can last upwards of 10 years.
To care for your veneers, follow the same routine as you would for your natural teeth. Brush at least twice a day with a non-abrasive toothpaste, floss daily, and rinse with antiseptic mouthwash. Avoid sugary or acidic foods and drinks after brushing and especially before bed. However, regular check-ups are crucial; remember to schedule appointments every 6 months!
