Porcelain Veneers
Porcelain Veneers in San Antonio
Veneers are thin porcelain shells custom-made to fit over the teeth to achieve a beautiful smile, while providing strength and resilience like natural tooth enamel. Veneers are used to fix the appearance of chipped, stained, and misaligned teeth, and typically last 10-20 years.

Why Should Patients Choose Veneers?
Veneers offer a cosmetic solution to enhance the brightness of the teeth and straighten a smile. Not only veneers help with discoloration and small misalignments, they correct things like a chip or fracture in the tooth. Veneers are often preferred because they’re a less-intrusive option than crowns or braces.
How Are Veneers Placed?
First, our dentist cleans the teeth to determine the correct shade of porcelain to use later on. Then, a small amount of enamel is removed from the tooth to accommodate the porcelain shell. A dental technician fabricates the veneer in the lab, specifically tailored to fit the patient’s tooth. Later, the veneer is bonded to the tooth with the help of resin cement.
How Do You Care for Veneers?
Patients should brush and floss veneers just like the other teeth. It’s recommended to avoid foods and beverages that may stain or discolor the veneer, such as coffee, tea, or red wine.
Good oral hygiene helps the veneer last longer, but, at some point, replacement is inevitable. This can be costly, but for many people, the results are more than worth it.
