We’re happy to provide you with information about dental veneers, so you can decide for yourself whether they’re right for you.

What Are Dental Veneers?

Dental veneers are a cover that’s placed on the front of your teeth to hide stains, chips, and other forms of damage. Dental veneers can be used to hide a gap between teeth or cover teeth that are oddly shaped.

Do Dental Veneers Look Natural?

Dental veneers are designed to look just as natural as your other teeth. Your dentist will even match the color of your veneers to the color of your other teeth, so no one will be able to tell the difference.

What’s the Difference Between a Veneer and a Crown?

A dental veneer is a cover that’s placed on the front of the tooth only. A dental crown is a cap that’s placed over the tooth to protect the tooth enamel or hide cosmetic defects. In other words, dental veneers are cosmetic in nature, but dental crowns can provide some structural reinforcement for your tooth.

How Do I Maintain Dental Veneers?

To maintain your dental veneers, brush them twice daily with nonabrasive toothpaste, floss once daily, and see your dentist regularly.
