What Are Dental Veneers?
Dental veneers are thin, individual shells of porcelain or composite resin bonded onto the front of teeth. They enhance a smile by hiding imperfections and giving teeth a smooth, uniform look. Veneers are for patients who desire a durable, beautiful solution to strengthen teeth with minimal dental procedures.
Benefits of Veneers
- Camouflage Flaws: Camouflage over stains, chipping, cracking, gaps, or slightly crooked teeth to a perfect-smiling smile.
- Natural Look: Designed according to your tooth shape, size, and color, a naturally appearing blend.
- Long-Lasting: With good care, porcelain veneers can last 10–15 years, and composite veneers are a permanent, low-cost solution.
- Least Damaging: Unlike other restorations, keep most of your tooth structure.
- Stain Resistance: Porcelain veneers resist staining from coffee, tea, red wine, and tobacco and stay shiny over time.
Types of Veneers at Lancaster Dental
We provide two basic types of veneers to suit your needs, wishes, and finances. During your consultation visit, our staff will assist you in selecting the best approach that suits your objectives.
Porcelain Veneers
- Durability: Renowned for their durability, porcelain veneers will last 10–15 years or more with proper care.
- Stain Resistance: Strongly resistant to stains, making them an excellent choice for busy patients.
- Natural Look: Mimic the translucency and feel of natural teeth for a natural look.
- Process: Usually requires two visits—a first visit to prepare and take impressions and a second visit to place them.
Composite Resin Veneers
- Cost-Effective: Less costly than porcelain, and thus an economical option for frugal patients.
- Single Visit: These are usually completed in one visit, as they are sculpted and bonded to your teeth simultaneously.
- Less Invasive: Requires less of your natural tooth structure to be shaved away, leaving more behind.
- Repairable: It is less complicated to repair if chipped, although they won't be as long-lasting as porcelain.
Each veneer is uniquely crafted to improve your facial appearance and smile with a functional and pleasing outcome.
Veneers vs. Laminates
While the words "veneers" and "laminates" are used synonymously, there are differences:
- Veneers: They work well to correct many problems, including chips, shapes, and stains. They often require some enamel shaping for proper fit.
- Laminates: Thinner and more transparent, laminates are generally applied for more conservative cosmetic changes, like subtle color changes, and usually, little or no enamel needs to be reduced.
Dr. Chavez will assess your cosmetic and dental goals to determine the most suitable treatment, providing you with a personal treatment plan tailored to your requirements.

Your Veneer Journey: Step by Step
We've made veneer treatment simple, easy, and convenient. Here's what you can expect:
- Consultation: On your first visit, we will perform a complete oral examination, digital photography, and impressions, as well as discuss your cosmetic requirements. We will determine your candidacy for veneers and address any of your questions.
- Preparation: In porcelain veneers, we remove a fragile portion of enamel only to achieve an ideal fit. Composite veneers involve minimal or no preparation.
- Impressions: We take accurate impressions of your teeth to allow us to create tailored veneers that fit the shape of your natural smile.
- Placement: On a follow-up visit, porcelain veneers are bonded into place using specialized dental cement. Composite veneers are shaped and hardened in a single visit.
- Final Touches: We remove any remaining layers to make the veneers look great and feel comfortable.

Caring for Your Veneers
Your veneers will serve you for years if you properly care for them. Use these easy tips to care for your investment:
- Maintain Oral Hygiene: Brushing your teeth twice daily with a soft-bristled toothbrush and non-abrasive toothpaste and flossing at standard intervals will keep your gums and teeth in great shape.
- Avoid Hard Objects: Avoid biting hard objects like ice, pens, or candy to avoid chipping.
- Minimize Staining Agents: Porcelain veneers are not as prone to stain, but avoiding coffee, red wine, and tobacco will make them look new, particularly for composite veneers.
- Wear a Night Guard: If you grind your teeth at night, a mouth guard made by your dentist can protect your veneers from damage.
- Regular Dental Visits: Come back for routine checkups and cleanings to monitor the health of your veneers and overall oral health.
Our team will give you simple aftercare instructions so your veneers stay in good shape.
