Experience Dental - How do I take care of my veneers?
Porcelain veneers are strong, custom-formed, natural-looking covers that are bonded to the surface of teeth. They look just like perfectly healthy and natural teeth. Veneers are often used to repair chipped, decayed or stained teeth and to reshape teeth and close gaps.
For those who want to completely customize the look of their teeth in order to achieve their dream smile, dental veneers are the best treatment option.

Bring Out the Best in Your Smile with Veneers
When it comes to transforming your smile, there are several procedures to choose from—but dental veneers offer a way to completely customize and enhance your smile in just one treatment. Veneers provide a long-lasting solution that not only improves the appearance of your teeth but also offers a range of benefits for various dental concerns.
Why Choose Veneers?
Veneers can be applied for a variety of reasons, making them a versatile choice for those seeking a smile makeover. Here’s how veneers can help:
- Close gaps in your smile
- Correct minor misalignment or crooked teeth
- Even out tooth shape for a uniform look
- Repair chips or damage to the tooth’s surface
- Reduce sensitivity by covering exposed areas of enamel
- Minimize a “gummy” smile for better balance
- Achieve your ideal shade of whiteness for a brighter smile
- Hide permanent stains that can’t be removed with traditional whitening
Longer-Lasting Results
Unlike teeth whitening, which requires frequent touch-ups, veneers offer a long-term solution for a brighter, whiter smile. They can be matched to the natural shade of your teeth or customized to give your smile a more radiant appearance. With proper care, veneers can last for years, making them a durable and effective option for smile enhancement.
Less Invasive Than You Think
Modern dental veneers require minimal removal of natural tooth material. In many cases, very little to no enamel needs to be removed before the veneer is bonded, making this procedure less invasive than dental crowns and helping to preserve the health of your natural teeth.
A Happier, More Confident You
Choosing veneers goes beyond just closing gaps or achieving that picture-perfect “Hollywood” smile. It’s about boosting your self-confidence and finding joy in moments that matter most. Veneers can help you feel more comfortable, radiant, and empowered in every aspect of your life.
Think about the moments you’ve hesitated or felt insecure about your smile—whether it’s in social settings or important life events. With veneers, you’ll no longer need to hold back.
We’ll help you achieve your dream smile so you can confidently enjoy moments like:
- Taking photos with friends or family without shying away from the camera
- Being the center of attention at your wedding, birthday, or special celebration
- Attending a loved one’s event with pride and joy, knowing your smile shines
- Making a great first impression at a job interview or professional meeting
- Enjoying a first date with confidence and ease
We’ll collaborate with you to create a smile that reflects the best version of you—one that you’ll be eager to show off, no matter where you are or who you’re with!

Getting Veneers Is Simple and Easy
We want to hear about your smile goals before we begin the veneer process, so we can ensure veneers are the best option for you. Our priority is to create a treatment plan that addresses your needs and ensures your gums and teeth are healthy before moving forward. By building a strong foundation, we can guarantee that your veneers will look amazing and last as long as possible.
Preparing Your Teeth
To create space for your veneer, a thin layer of enamel is carefully removed from the front surface of your tooth. Don’t worry—we numb the area to make sure you’re comfortable, and only a minimal amount of enamel is removed. Afterward, we’ll take an impression of your prepared tooth and the surrounding teeth to ensure your veneers fit perfectly and blend seamlessly with your natural smile.
Creation and Placement
While your permanent veneers are being custom-made, we’ll place a temporary veneer to protect your tooth and maintain comfort. Once your permanent veneers are ready, we’ll remove the temporary ones and bond the permanent veneers securely in place. After a few final adjustments and a quick polish, your stunning new smile will be ready to show off!
Caring for Your Veneers
Your new veneers will look and feel just like natural teeth, and caring for them is just as important. You’ll receive detailed instructions on how to maintain them, including brushing and flossing twice a day and keeping up with routine cleanings and checkups. With proper care, your veneers can last 10 years or more, keeping your smile bright and healthy for the long term.

- Your Vision for Your Smile: Your specific goals and the customization required to achieve them will also play a role in the final cost.
It’s important to note that no dental practice can provide an accurate quote over the phone, as your needs are as unique as your smile. We encourage you to schedule a consultation for a thorough oral exam, allowing us to explore your treatment options and provide you with an accurate estimate.
If you have dental insurance, we’re more than happy to provide a quote that you can submit to your insurer to understand your potential out-of-pocket costs before making a decision.

Frequently Asked Questions
Porcelain veneers are usually referred to as “traditional” veneers. They are extremely durable and are virtually indistinguishable from a natural tooth to the naked eye. Because they are made up of porcelain, they are stain-resistant.
It’s ultimately up to you to decide how many veneers you need. You may wish to get veneers just on the teeth which are most visible when you smile.
Veneers are permanently bonded to your tooth and need the same care as your natural teeth. With regular brushing, flossing and check-ups, your veneers can last anywhere from 10 to 15 years.
Care for your veneers the same way you would care for your natural teeth. Brush at least twice daily with a nonabrasive toothpaste, floss at least once per day and rinse with an antiseptic mouthwash once or twice per day. Avoid sugary or acidic drinks and foods after brushing and especially before bed. And don’t forget to book your routine cleaning and checkup every 6 months!
