Dental Veneers

When to Choose Veneers

Veneers are best when a tooth is healthy but needs minor aesthetic enhancement. Perhaps it’s slightly crooked, uneven or peg-shaped. Their minimally-invasive design makes them a good option when your teeth are healthy but need a bit of a boost cosmetically. Their thin design is similar to what you see if you’re placing a false fingernail on your nail, except in this case it’s a layer of porcelain on your tooth.

In most cases, we’ll recommend a set of six veneers across your upper front teeth, since those are the ones that are most visible when you’re smiling
