A digital mockup shows you your projected smile before a single tooth is prepped. Smile Center Dentistry previews your result digitally before any enamel is touched.
Veneers are permanent once enamel is removed, so we make sure you approve the design first. Proportions that work on a screen don't always translate — we check the design against your actual face and smile line.
We adjust shape and shade digitally until you approve it, not after the veneers are already made. We walk through the mockup together, not just email you a file to review alone.
Not every case needs aggressive tooth reduction — we explain what your specific teeth actually require. We default to the most conservative prep that still achieves your desired result.
Composite can often be done in a single visit; porcelain takes longer but resists staining better — we explain both honestly. Neither material is universally 'better' — the right choice depends on your goals and budget.
If a veneer doesn't fit or match shade correctly, we adjust or remake it within the guarantee period. We'd rather remake one veneer than have you live with a mismatch.
Not every smile concern needs the same veneer approach — here's what we offer after your design consult.
Custom-shaded in a dental lab to match — or intentionally brighten — your natural smile. Typically requires two visits: prep and impressions, then bonding.
A tooth-colored resin is sculpted directly onto your teeth, often completed in a single visit. We explain the shorter lifespan honestly compared to porcelain.
This step lets you request adjustments — length, shape, brightness — before we touch your teeth. Nothing is finalized until you approve the design.
We match a single veneer carefully to your surrounding natural teeth so it doesn't stand out. Ideal for isolated damage rather than an overall smile makeover.
A full-arch case gets extra planning time to ensure every veneer works together, not just individually. We stage complex cases in phases when that better serves the outcome.
We'll tell you if bonding could accomplish your goal at a lower cost before recommending veneers. Not every cosmetic concern needs the more involved veneer procedure.
We ask what you'd like to change about your smile when you book, so the consult is focused.
You approve shape and shade before any tooth preparation happens.
Temporary veneers are placed while your custom ones are fabricated.
Your finished veneers are bonded and checked for fit, bite, and shade match.
"Seeing my projected smile on a screen before committing made the whole decision so much easier."
"Single veneer to fix a chipped front tooth — matched my other teeth so well you genuinely can't tell."
"Porcelain veneers three years in and they still look like the day I got them."
"Minimal-prep option kept more of my natural tooth intact, which mattered to me."
"The design consult alone was worth it. I changed my mind about the shape twice before we even started."
Porcelain veneers typically last 10 to 15 years with proper care; composite usually needs replacement sooner, around 5 to 7 years. A nightguard can extend lifespan significantly for patients who grind their teeth.
Composite veneers often require no anesthesia at all since they involve less enamel removal. We check comfort throughout the procedure rather than assuming it's fine.
You approve shape and shade digitally first, which is exactly why we build that step into every case. We can adjust the mockup as many times as needed until you're satisfied.
Porcelain is more durable and stain-resistant but costs more and takes longer; composite is faster and cheaper but wears sooner. Both can look excellent — the difference is mostly longevity and cost.
Composite veneers can sometimes be applied with little to no enamel removal at all. Enamel removed for veneers doesn't grow back, which is why we're careful about how much we take.
We break down per-tooth cost clearly so you can decide how many veneers fit your budget. We'd rather you understand the full cost before starting than be surprised partway through.
