Frequently Asked Questions
Are veneers right for everyone?
Veneers are an excellent option for many people, but they aren’t the perfect fit for every situation. Ideal candidates have healthy teeth and gums, no active decay, and a stable bite. They work especially well for addressing cosmetic concerns like discoloration, small gaps, chips, uneven edges, or slightly misaligned teeth. During your consultation, we’ll do a comprehensive evaluation to ensure your oral health supports veneers. If needed, we can recommend other treatments — such as teeth whitening, orthodontics, or bonding — to get your smile ready for veneers and ensure the best possible outcome.
Do veneers damage your natural teeth?
Veneers require the removal of a very thin layer of enamel — usually less than a millimeter — to ensure a proper fit and natural appearance. While this step is permanent, it’s minimal and doesn’t compromise the overall strength of your tooth. In fact, when bonded correctly, veneers can help protect the underlying tooth from wear and discoloration. Our team takes great care to preserve as much healthy tooth structure as possible while still delivering the cosmetic results you’re looking for.
How long do veneers last?
Veneers are designed to be a long-term investment in your smile. With proper brushing, flossing, and regular dental checkups, they can last anywhere from 10 to 15 years — and often even longer. Their longevity also depends on lifestyle habits; for example, if you avoid biting into hard foods (like ice or unpopped popcorn kernels) and stay mindful about grinding or clenching, you’ll extend their lifespan. If you have a history of teeth grinding, we may recommend a custom night guard to help protect your new smile.
