Porcelain Veneers

One of today's most popular cosmetic treatments, porcelain veneers instantly mask stains, chips, and slight misalignments. Fabricated from fine dental porcelain, veneers are semi-translucent and reflect light like natural tooth enamel. As your cosmetic dentist, Dr. DeRose will custom-design your veneers according to the changes you would like to make. For example, he can:

• Lengthen or broaden short, stubby teeth
• Cover stained, chipped, or broken teeth
• Unify asymmetrical teeth
• Completely transform your smile!

There's no limit to the improvements Dr. DeRose can make with porcelain veneers. To receive porcelain veneers, your teeth need to be in relatively good condition (no cavities or restorations). With conventional veneers, Dr. DeRose must reshape the teeth in preparation. For patients who need minimal or no reshaping prior to veneer placement, Dr. DeRose may suggest Lumineers. These ultra-thin veneers generally require no anesthesia and the procedure can be reversed in the future.

In most cases, we can place porcelain veneers or Lumineers in just two office visits. For a complete smile makeover, Dr. DeRose may recommend combining veneers or Lumineers with other cosmetic enhancements, such as teeth whitening or porcelain crowns.
