Conceal Imperfections With Porcelain Veneers
A dental veneer is a thin porcelain shell that fits over the front of your tooth to conceal a variety of cosmetic imperfections. Porcelain veneers are virtually painless, natural-looking, and can help cover issues such as:
Veneers can cover damage such as cracks or chips. The tooth structure must be in generally good health to support the veneer.
Deep stains may not respond to teeth whitening. Dental veneers can cover discoloration to give you a stunningly white smile.
Also referred to as instant orthodontics, porcelain veneers can conceal minor gaps and misalignments for a straighter appearance.

A small amount of enamel is removed from the tooth to allow the dental veneer to fit properly over the tooth surface and blend in with your natural teeth.
Affordable Financing Options Available
While we do accept the majority of dental insurance plans, most providers do not cover cosmetic dentistry treatments. To help make veneers more affordable to all of our patients, we accept CareCredit®. CareCredit is a financing option that offers low-interest or no-interest payment plans to those who qualify.

Maintaining Your Veneers
On average, porcelain veneers last about 10 years. However, with proper care and maintenance, your veneers can last much longer. Continue brushing with a soft bristle brush and floss as normal. It is also important to continue with your regularly scheduled dental exams and cleanings.
Porcelain veneers are durable, but there are some things to minimize or avoid in order to maintain your new smile for years to come.
Ice
Eating ice is a bad habit that can chip or crack even a natural tooth. To prevent damage to your dental veneers, it is best to avoid chewing on ice.
Sticky Foods
Sticky foods like caramel can cause your veneer to dislodge from your tooth. To prevent this from happening, avoid sticky foods or chew them with your teeth that do not have veneers on them.
Hard Foods
Hard foods like raw vegetables should not be avoided completely, as they are an important part of a healthy diet. However, avoid biting and chewing these types of foods with your veneers.
Drinks That Stain
Drinks like coffee and red wine can stain your new veneers. While the porcelain is stain resistant, it is best to minimize these drinks to keep your veneers bright and white for years.
Because the tooth is altered before veneer placement, it is important to remember that veneers are permanent and the tooth will always require some sort of restoration after the enamel is removed. With proper care, your veneers can last for well over a decade, but the porcelain may wear over time and eventually need to be replaced.
Do Porcelain Veneers Hurt?
Veneer placement is virtually painless. Most patients experience little to no discomfort, as only a small amount of enamel needs to be removed and there is no downtime or recovery needed with treatment. If you experience dental anxiety or require a higher level of pain management, we offer sedation options such as nitrous oxide and oral conscious sedation to ensure you are completely comfortable during treatment.
Ensuring a Healthy Foundation for Long-Lasting Veneers
Healthy teeth and gums are a critical solid foundation for any cosmetic dentistry treatment. Veneers can conceal a damaged tooth to give it a natural-looking appearance. However, if the tooth is decayed or has significant damage, it may not be healthy enough to support a veneer. Options such as dental crowns may be a better fit.
During your initial consultation at our Germantown practice, your dentist will determine if your teeth and gums are healthy enough to support veneers and if any treatments are needed to restore your oral health. We want you to not only have a beautiful smile but a healthy smile so that your veneers last for as long as possible. We offer a range of treatment options to ensure your dental needs are met.
