About Veneers

If you are unhappy with the shape, color, or alignment of your teeth, porcelain veneers offer a comprehensive cosmetic solution. As a fellowship-trained dentist, Dr. Hiral Patel specializes in "smile makeovers" that look natural, feel great, and stand the test of time.

Veneers Q&A

What are Porcelain Veneers?

Veneers are ultra-thin shells of medical-grade ceramic that are bonded to the front surfaces of your teeth. They are custom-made to match your desired tooth shape, size, and shade, acting as a "new front" for your smile.

What Can Veneers Fix?

Veneers are the "gold standard" of cosmetic dentistry because they can correct multiple issues simultaneously:

  • Deep Discoloration: For stubborn stains that professional whitening treatments cannot lift.
  • Chips and Cracks: Restoring the uniform edges and structural appearance of your teeth.
  • Gaps and Spacing: Closing small spaces without the need for long-term orthodontic work.
  • Irregular Shapes: Lengthening short teeth or smoothing out jagged edges for a symmetrical look.

The Process: From Consultation to New Smile

  1. Consultation: Dr. Patel listens to your goals and uses digital imaging to plan your ideal smile.
  2. Preparation: A tiny amount of enamel is gently removed to ensure the veneer sits flush and doesn't look bulky.
  3. Temporary Veneers: You’ll wear high-quality temporaries while our lab crafts your custom porcelain pieces.
  4. Final Placement: Once ready, we bond the veneers to your teeth, instantly revealing a stunning, transformed smile.
