What are porcelain veneers?

Porcelain veneers are a popular cosmetic dentistry treatment that offers the chance to correct numerous aesthetic issues at once. Veneers are custom-crafted shells of porcelain that cover the visible surfaces of your teeth. Most people get veneers on their four upper front teeth, but you can also have veneers placed on lower or back teeth, depending on the curve of your smile. 

People may choose veneers for the chance to improve:

• Discoloration that won’t improve with teeth whitening
• Minor misalignment
• Gapped teeth
• Irregularities in the size or shape of teeth
• Chipped or cracked teeth
• Worn-down teeth

When compared to the expense of having multiple treatments done to correct various aesthetic concerns, dental veneers offer great value. 

What does getting porcelain veneers involve?

The planning process is an important step and involves a consultation with Dr. Rosenblatt to discuss your treatment goals and ensure you don’t have any dental decay or gum disease that must be corrected before your cosmetic treatment. 

If you decide to move forward with veneers, an injection of numbing medication keeps you comfortable as Dr. Rosenblatt carefully removes a small portion of your natural tooth tissue. He uses digital imaging technology like the iTero™ intraoral scanner to gather information on the exact size, shape, and alignment of your teeth, which guides the fabrication process for your new veneers. 

A temporary set of veneers protects your teeth until the permanent veneers arrive. At that point you return to have them checked for appearance and fit before Dr. Rosenblatt cements them into place, completing your treatment. 

Are porcelain veneers a permanent treatment?

You can expect to get 10-15 years of wear from your new porcelain veneers*. However, even the best set of veneers eventually needs replacement. 

Porcelain veneers require removing a small portion of your natural tooth enamel. This means you always need to have veneers in place to protect your teeth.
