Veneers

Do you hide your smile while out in public? Dental veneers can conceal cosmetic flaws to enhance the appearance of your teeth.

Our dentists at Gulch Dental Studio in Nashville, TN, can artfully place veneers to boost your confidence.

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. Once bonded to the tooth, veneers obscure cosmetic concerns like chips, cracks, or stains. Each shell is made from porcelain or similar materials that flawlessly resemble the appearance of a natural tooth.

Porcelain veneers have become one of the most popular treatment options in cosmetic dentistry because they are relatively easy to place and yield exceptional lifelike results.

Both crowns and porcelain veneers were used to conceal deep staining and gaps between this patient's teeth to create a stunning, cohesive smile. This combination of durable wafer-thin shells and tooth-colored restorations look just like natural teeth, with results that will last longer than professional whitening treatments or the use of resin bonding materials.

The team here is great! Switched to this facility after a bad experience with a dentist. Prior one ignored my concerns with pain and did shoddy dental work. Dr. Harris is SO knowledgeable and kind as he helped me get my teeth back on track. I've spent a lot of time in this office and I can't recommend enough!!!! Truly a great experience overall.

Dr. Harris and his team are amazing at what they do. They are friendly, professional, and best of all work extremely efficiently. Dr. Harris was able to do a multitude of fillings in around an hour. He even removed several stains on my teeth that I thought were permanent! Best experience at the dentist I have had.

How Much Do Veneers Cost?

While getting a brand-new smile can be expensive, the results are priceless, especially when they are this natural-looking. With a good eye for aesthetics, some careful veneer placement can give your smile the makeover you've wanted for a long time.

Are Veneers Covered
by Dental Insurance?

/

No. As a cosmetic dentistry procedure, dental veneers are considered an elective treatment rather than medically necessary. Thankfully, our financing options can keep veneer treatment affordable for many households. We can also go over cheaper alternative treatments that may be right for you.

Ideal Dental Veneer Candidates Are in Good Oral Health

In general, the most important requirement affecting your ability to receive dental veneers is robust 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 at our practice. Other factors that affect candidacy for porcelain veneers include:

Whether You Have 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.

Whether You Grind Your Teeth

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 Only

While porcelain veneers can address gaps or other minor types of misalignment, 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 want to consider an alternative treatment, such as dental bonding. Our team will be happy to discuss your options with you.

The Porcelain Veneers Timeline What You Can Expect

Placing veneers is an irreversible but minimally invasive procedure that can give you a stunning smile that lasts for over a decade.
Dental veneers can enhance your smile in just two office visits. The process is minimally invasive and virtually painless.
Dental veneers can enhance your smile in just two office visits. The process is minimally invasive and virtually painless.

Preparation:

First, your dentist will prepare each tooth that will receive a porcelain veneer by removing a thin layer of enamel. This step makes space to ensure the thin shell fits seamlessly onto the tooth.

Impressions:

Your dentist will then take impressions of your prepped teeth to create a wax mock-up. This allows you to see what your veneers will look like before treatment moves forward. We can make any requested changes to the design at this stage.

Fabrication:

Once we decide on specifics like color and shape, we will send your impressions to a trusted dental lab. In the meantime, you will receive temporary veneers that still allow you to chew and speak normally. Follow our instructions for proper care of these temporary veneers.

Placement:

Before placing your veneers, your dentist will test them for fit and aesthetics. Your dentist will then remove the temporary veneers and clean each prepared tooth with a cleansing solution designed to aid in the bonding process. The bonding agent is then applied to your teeth, and the dentist will secure your final veneers in place.

Life After Veneers

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 downtown Nashville dental office.

Alternatives to Veneers Other Treatments for Patients to Consider

Don't feel bad if you are unable to afford veneers or if they just aren't right for your needs. Depending on the issues you want to address, our dentists in Nashville, TN, can discuss potential alternatives to porcelain veneers.

Before and after dental bonding

Dental Bonding

 
Dental bonding is used to treat many of the same conditions as veneers for a lower price. Instead of a porcelain shell, the dental bonding process uses a resin material that is carefully shaped and molded to the tooth.

While bonding is a good alternative for treating an imperfect tooth, the resin bonding material cannot provide the same level of strength and durability that veneer materials can. That said, many patients are satisfied with this more affordable alternative.

Teeth Whitening

Professional teeth whitening is another more affordable alternative to veneers. Both in-office whitening and take-home whitening kits can be effective at treating stains that originate on the surface of the teeth.

We always remind patients that their teeth can still become stained after whitening treatment. Good oral hygiene and avoiding tobacco products can keep smiles looking bright and white. In addition, periodic touchup procedures can prolong the results.

Before and after Invisalign

Invisalign

Veneers can be used to treat minor tooth misalignment, but sometimes orthodontics is the better option. This ensures your teeth look straight and can prevent oral health problems such as teeth grinding and TMJ disorders.

Gulch Dental Studios offers Invisalign instead of traditional metal braces. Thanks to the clear plastic aligner trays used during the months-long procedure, you can complete Invisalign treatment without anyone noticing you're undergoing orthodontic care.

Porcelain Veneer FAQ

How long do dental veneers last?

With proper at-home care and regular trips to see the dentist, your new dental veneers can last for over a decade. After about 10-15 years, your dental veneers will need to be replaced. The process for replacing old dental veneers is quite similar to the initial veneer placement procedure.

Will dental veneers ruin my teeth?

No. Just a small amount of tooth enamel is removed while prepping a tooth for a dental veneer. Typically, just a half millimeter of enamel is removed, and sometimes less. Losing a fraction of a millimeter of enamel will not have a significant impact on the structural integrity of a tooth or your oral health.

Can I smoke after getting dental veneers?

You technically can smoke or use chewing tobacco after getting dental veneers, but it's a bad idea. The veneers will not become stained, but tobacco products will discolor your natural teeth and increase your risk of gum disease. We often tell patients that getting dental veneers is a convenient excuse to kick their smoking or chewing tobacco habit for good.

What should I do if a veneer gets chipped or comes loose?

If a dental veneer is fractured or somehow gets dislodged, it's important that you contact our Nashville practice as soon as possible. Bring the debonded veneer or broken fragment with you if possible. Our dental team can assess the issue and determine the most effective treatment for this dental veneer problem.

Why are veneers from veneer techs so cheap?

Veneers from veneer techs are cheap because veneer techs are not licensed dental care professionals. In fact, their work is illegal and potentially dangerous. All it takes to be a veneer tech is a little training for a meaningless certificate. Veneer techs also use substandard tools and materials when doing their dental work. There is a risk of lasting tooth damage and poor cosmetic results. This is why it's worth spending extra money to get your dental veneers from an experienced and qualified cosmetic dentist.
