Based on our conversation, we will create a personalized plan for treatment. Each tooth receiving a veneer will be prepared by removing a small amount of dental enamel. Next, we take impressions and send the information to a top dental lab where a skilled ceramist will prepare customized veneers.

When your veneers are ready, we will have you return to our office for the final step. Dr. Gonzalez will adjust your new veneers to make sure they sit naturally along your gum line and don’t affect your dental bite. During the final step, we bond the veneers securely to the surface of your tooth and polish them.

All that’s left for you to do is go out and enjoy your stunning new smile! However, here are a couple things to keep in mind:

• Your veneers won’t stain when you drink red wine or coffee, but they can collect plaque and tartar just like your natural teeth. Brushing and flossing properly and visiting us for routine appointments will ensure that your teeth and gums stay healthy.
• Chipping is rare, but you can minimize the risk by taking care when biting down on hard or crunchy foods. Don’t ever use your teeth to open packages because this causes stress and may chip the veneer.
