Naturally strong teeth are protected by a layer of enamel, which is widely considered to be the hardest substance in the human body—even harder than bone. But what if your protective layer of enamel has worn away?
Luckily, there is a way to make damaged teeth stronger! Porcelain Veneers are an easy way to protect and redesign your whole smile! Sometimes teeth break, stain, or don’t fit in with the rest of your smile. These damaged teeth can lead to infections and even gum disease.
That’s where dental veneers can make all the difference. Veneers replicate that strong enamel covering. With this kind of protection covering your teeth, they’re likely to remain safe, strong, and healthy for years to come. Want to try veneers for yourself? Schedule a consultation!
What Are Veneers?
Tooth enamel wears away with time. It can also be damaged by the food we eat and the physical activities we participate in. Unfortunately, enamel never grows back, but with Advanced Dentistry by Design, you can get veneers to both protect and beautify your smile.
Dental veneers are a thin layer of material placed over the front side of individual teeth. They are made most commonly from composite resin or porcelain. Designed to be molded specifically to your teeth, dental veneers can protect your teeth for years.
Benefits of Veneers
More and more people are taking advantage of porcelain veneers because they look amazing. Veneers are a wonderful cosmetic dental treatment for many reasons:
- Brightening Teeth: Veneers are made to match the color of your existing teeth, or you can choose a brighter shade of white to brighten your whole smile.
- Restoring Broken, Chipped, or Cracked Teeth: Veneers are a great way to fix breaks, cracks, or chips in teeth.
- Providing Uniformity in Teeth: If you have gaps in your smile due to smaller-than-average teeth, veneers will fix them.
- Protecting Teeth: Veneers act as shields for your teeth, protecting them from further damage and staining.

What Are Chairside Composite Veneers?
This treatment gives you veneers in a fraction of the normal time. It is completed in one appointment. The process involves bonding a thin layer of composite bonding onto the teeth. This material is not stain-resistant like porcelain veneers but can be easily touched up and molded to your preferences.
The resin material is durable but does not last as long as typical porcelain veneers. It does give a quick and personalized new smile!
How Much Do Veneers Cost?
The type of veneers you receive will determine the cost of your treatment. Also, when you receive veneers, you should expect us to remove a little bit of tooth enamel to give the veneers room in your mouth and a rough surface to attach to.
Porcelain veneers are stain-resistant, so you will save money over time since you will not have to keep up on teeth whitening to keep your teeth sparkling white.
Preparing Your Smile for Teeth Veneers
During your consultation, our dental team will discuss the veneer process. We’ll set another appointment with you to prepare your teeth. To do this, Dr. Khouri will shape your teeth to allow the veneers to attach to your teeth. This is required for long-lasting results. It shouldn’t take more than 30 minutes or so, and you won’t feel anything more than mild discomfort.
Placing Your Porcelain Veneers
After your teeth have been shaped and the veneers have been created. The dentist will bond the veneers to the teeth and continue shaping them to your desired look. This process of shaping and placing will give you stunning results. After your veneers are placed, try to avoid chewing ice or grinding your teeth because this will cause harm to your veneers.
