What are Veneers?
Veneers are ultra-thin, custom-made shells of tooth-colored porcelain that are bonded to the front surface of your teeth to improve their appearance. We uniquely combine cutting-edge technology, clinical mastery, and artistry from world-renowned Master Ceramist Paulo Battistella to create beautiful, natural-looking smiles. Veneers offer a minimally-invasive way to achieve a dramatic aesthetic enhancement, boosting your confidence and helping you feel your absolute best.

Natural Appearance
Our veneers are crafted by Master Ceramist Paulo Battistella from high-quality, translucent porcelain that closely mimics the look and feel of natural tooth enamel, ensuring a seamless, natural-looking result.

Durability and Stain Resistance
With proper care, veneers can last for many years. They are also highly resistant to staining, helping you maintain a bright, beautiful smile for years to come.
The Veneers Treatment Process

Consultation & Treatment Planning
Your journey begins with a comprehensive consultation, where your dentist will assess your oral health, discuss your goals, and determine if veneers are the best solution for your needs. During this visit, your dentist will also take photographs, x-rays, and digital scans of your teeth. With this data and our advanced AI-powered PreVu Smile Design technology, we can show you a simulation of what your completed smile will look like before treatment even begins!

Preparation & Impressions
Your dentist will prepare your teeth by removing a thin layer of enamel to accommodate the veneers. They will then take precise digital impressions of your teeth to create your custom veneers. In some cases, your dentist may place temporary veneers to protect your teeth while your permanent veneers are being crafted.

Bonding & Adjustments
Once your custom veneers are ready, your dentist will carefully bond them to your teeth, making any necessary adjustments to ensure a perfect fit and comfortable bite. Your dentist will also check the color, shape, and fit of your veneers to ensure they blend seamlessly with your natural teeth. You'll leave our office with a stunning, transformed smile.

Frequently Asked Questions
With proper care and maintenance, veneers can last for 10 to 15 years or even longer. Regular brushing, flossing, and dental check-ups can help extend the life of your veneers.
The veneers process is generally comfortable and painless. Your dentist will numb the area before preparing your teeth, and any post-operative sensitivity is usually minimal and short-lived.
No, veneers are resistant to traditional whitening treatments. If you desire a brighter smile, it's best to whiten your natural teeth before getting veneers to ensure a seamless match. Your dentist can help you select the perfect shade for your veneers.
Caring for veneers is simple. You’ll want to maintain the same daily habits as with natural teeth. Start by brushing at least twice per day with an ADA-accepted fluoride toothpaste. This keeps both your natural veneers and your teeth healthy.
You should also floss once per day. Flossing removes debris and plaque that forms between both your natural teeth and your veneers, protecting your gum health and reducing your risk of tooth decay, too.
Along with at-home oral care, you should visit the team at Fulbright Dental for checkups every six months. Twice-yearly checkups allow our team to keep an eye on your oral health and your veneers, and maximize the lifespan of your new investment.
Although porcelain veneers are stain-resistant, it’s best to minimize staining beverages like coffee or red wine to keep your smile bright. Certain beverages can still stain your remaining healthy teeth or even the edges where your veneers meet your natural enamel.
It’s also important to avoid biting into non-food objects or very hard foods with your front teeth. Avoid chewing fingernails and pencils, or crunching into ice, unpopped popcorn kernels, and similar foods.
At Fulbright Dental, we provide personalized care tips to help your veneers and oral health remain in optimal condition. By integrating good hygiene and consistent visits, your veneers can continue to look stunning for years to come.
This depends entirely on your own unique situation, how your smile looks, your smile goals, and the overall balance of your teeth. Many patients choose veneers on their upper front teeth to create symmetry and restore their visible smile line, typically covering 4 to 8 teeth.
Others prefer a more comprehensive approach, extending the treatment across their upper and lower arches. However, it’s possible to just get 1-2 veneers, too, especially if you only have a couple of problem teeth. It’s entirely up to you and your unique situation.
Not sure how many veneers you need? With expert guidance from Dr. Kevin Faist, Dr. Michael Fulbright, and Dr. Lauren Estes, you’ll receive a treatment plan tailored to your unique needs, helping you achieve the perfect balance of aesthetics and natural appearance.
Anesthesia is not always necessary during the veneer preparation process, though it is available for your comfort. Your dentist will use a small needle to inject a numbing medication into your gums to keep you comfortable throughout the process.
Then, your dentist will gently buff away a small layer of enamel to ensure your veneers fit seamlessly, which is typically a pain-free experience. You may experience some minor sensitivity for a day or two after the procedure, but this will go away quickly.
For patients with sensitivity or dental anxiety, sedation options are available at Fulbright Dental to create a calm and relaxing environment. Your comfort is always our highest priority, and we’ll ensure you feel at ease before, during, and after your treatment.
