Veneers are a highly popular treatment technique to dramatically change and beautify a smile.  Veneers not only change the color and brightness of your smile, they renew the shape and contour of your smile giving you a more youthful, vibrant appearance.

Veneers are new facings for teeth.  The term veneer implies porcelain, although there are other types of veneers too.

Porcelain veneers are usually done on the top front six teeth since these are the teeth that define your smile.  The teeth are minimally prepared, roughening their surface to about a half to one millimeter in depth.  Temporaries (acrylic) are placed for a few days while the laboratory fabricates the detailed porcelain facings.  The new veneers are then custom fitted and color matched to bring your smile into a whole new realm.  The finished veneers are bonded permanently to your teeth.

Veneers are not for all teeth.  If your teeth are weakened by fractures or decay, or have had root canals, posts, or similar prior treatments, then veneers may not be possible or recommended.
