What Are Porcelain Veneers?
A porcelain veneer, also called a dental veneer, is an ultra-thin shell that a dentist can attach to the surface of a tooth in order to obscure cosmetic concerns like chips, cracks, or stains. Each shell is made from porcelain or similar materials that flawlessly resemble the appearance of a tooth. Because of their natural-looking results and the relative simplicity of the placement procedure, porcelain veneers have become one of the most popular treatment options in cosmetic dentistry.

Honestly, this place feels less like a dentist's office and more like a luxury spa. :) The office is beautiful. The staff is phenomenal. Everyone who works here is so professional, kind, and helpful. I actually love going to the dentist, but if you're one of those people who get anxiety about it, I think this place will forever change things for you! Highly recommend.

Going to the dentist is probably one of my least favorite things to do. The staff and Dr. Harris were extremely welcoming and made me feel extremely comfortable. They were empathetic and worked with me to formulate a realistic plan. Overall, I had a great experience!
Wondering what factors can affect your ability to receive porcelain veneers?
Ideal Dental Veneer Candidates Have Good Oral Health
In general, the most important requirement affecting your ability to receive dental veneers is strong oral health. If you have major oral health issues such as severe tooth decay or gum disease, other treatments will be necessary before you qualify for cosmetic dentistry. We can address virtually all of these concerns in our office. Other factors that affect candidacy for porcelain veneers include:
Sufficient Enamel
Before your dentist can place your porcelain veneers, they have to remove a certain amount of enamel from your tooth. If you have very worn or thin enamel, you may not qualify for this form of dentistry.
Free of Teeth Grinding
Clenching or grinding your teeth can damage restorations like veneers. An oral appliance or another treatment for these issues may allow you to still undergo treatment.
Minor Misalignment
While porcelain veneers can address gaps or other minor misalignments, severely crooked teeth may still require orthodontic treatment such as Invisalign.
Good Oral Hygiene
Consistent oral hygiene and regular checkups at our office in Nashville, TN, are essential for maintaining the integrity of the dental veneers and the health of your underlying teeth.
Ready for a Permanent Investment
Veneer dentistry is irreversible. If you are concerned about making permanent changes to your smile, you may consider an alternative treatment, such as dental bonding. You can discuss your options with our team in a consultation.
What can veneers address?
Conditions Treated by Porcelain Veneers
Our dentists use dental veneers to address a variety of cosmetic concerns, including teeth that are:
Aren't there less expensive treatment options?
Dental Veneers vs. Dental Bonding
While many cosmetic treatments exist, only veneers achieve truly comprehensive results.
Depending on the issues you want to address, our dentists at Gulch Dental Studio in Nashville, TN, can discuss potential alternatives to porcelain veneers. Dental bonding, for example, is used to treat many of the same conditions as veneers for a lower price.
However, while bonding is a good alternative for treating an imperfect tooth, the material cannot provide the same level of strength and durability that porcelain can. In addition, veneers typically look more natural.
So what can you expect while receiving veneers?
We Use Advanced Materials to Provide Stunning Results
At Gulch Dental Studio in Nashville, TN, our dentists offer veneers crafted from IPS e.max and IPS Empress. These two materials offer incredible strength and natural-looking results.
Both e.max and Empress mimic the qualities of natural tooth enamel to ensure your veneers blend with surrounding teeth. These materials are also exceptionally strong, and can last many years with proper care.

What happens after veneers are placed?
Caring for Porcelain Veneers Is Simple: Maintain the Beauty of Your Enhanced Smile
Though our veneers and all materials we use at Gulch Dental Studio are of the highest quality and durability, they will still need to be replaced at some point. However, with excellent oral hygiene, including regular brushing, flossing, and professional cleanings, your veneers can provide a more beautiful smile for 10 years or more. Before you leave your second appointment, we will give you full instructions on care and continued maintenance.
Our Patient Results
Life after Porcelain Veneers Treatment
One of the greatest benefits of veneers is that you can begin to enjoy the results almost immediately. There is virtually no recovery or downtime needed and your veneers will be ready to show off as soon as you leave our office.
Veneers are made from stain-resistant, high-quality porcelain and can be cared for just like your natural teeth. However, there are a few steps you can take to keep them looking great for many years to come. To prevent fracturing your veneers, avoid:
- Chewing on ice, pen caps, or fingernails
- Opening mail or packages with your teeth
- Grinding your teeth excessively
If you grind your teeth during the night, our doctors can recommend an oral appliance that helps you avoid excessive pressure on your veneers.
Why trust our practice with your results?
