Whether it's a single chipped tooth or a full smile redesign, our Dental Veneers approach starts with a mockup you review and approve, not a surprise reveal.
Every Smile Center Dentistry office offering Dental Veneers is held to the same four standards, verified before the office ever joins our network.
You'll see a projected preview of your new smile before any tooth preparation begins.
We preserve as much natural enamel as the case allows, rather than defaulting to aggressive tooth reduction.
Porcelain veneers last longer and resist staining better; composite is faster and more affordable — we'll walk through the tradeoffs.
The full veneer case, including the mockup and any needed prep visits, is quoted as one package before starting.
Every option below is available under the same upfront-pricing standard, whichever specific service ends up fitting your case.
This is the visit where you get final say on the design direction before any prep work happens. Bring reference photos if you have a specific look in mind — it helps the design process.
Porcelain is stain-resistant and closely mimics natural tooth translucency, typically lasting ten to fifteen years with care. Porcelain tends to be the better long-term investment for a full smile redesign.
Composite veneers are sculpted directly onto the tooth in a single visit, at a lower cost than porcelain. It's a reasonable starting point if you're not ready to commit to porcelain yet.
Not every case qualifies — we'll assess honestly during your consultation rather than force-fitting the technique. This approach is reversible in a way that traditional veneers usually aren't.
A chipped or discolored single tooth can often be corrected with one veneer rather than a full smile redesign. This is usually the fastest and most affordable veneer case type.
For minor corrections, bonding alone sometimes achieves the look you want without the cost of a full veneer. Bonding is reversible and can be touched up more easily over time.
No mystery about what happens between calling us and walking out with the problem addressed.
We'll photograph your smile and start the digital mockup process at your first visit.
We finalize shape, length, and shade together at this stage.
Preparation, when needed, is minimal and guided by the approved design.
We confirm the result matches the approved mockup before you leave.
These are unedited, from patients who've actually been through Dental Veneers treatment with us in the past year.
“Seeing the mockup before anything happened to my teeth made this so much less nerve-wracking than I expected.”
“They talked me out of veneers on two teeth and suggested bonding instead, which saved me a decent amount of money.”
“Porcelain veneers matched my other teeth so well that people genuinely can't tell which ones are original.”
“Minimal-prep was an option for my case and they explained exactly why before recommending it over traditional veneers.”
“Fixed a single chipped front tooth in two visits and the shade match is honestly perfect.”
Straight answers to what people actually want to know before committing to Dental Veneers.
Porcelain veneers typically last ten to fifteen years with good care; composite veneers usually need replacement sooner.
You'll have final say on shape, length, and shade before we move forward.
We'll tell you honestly which category your case falls into before starting.
We'll walk through the cost and longevity tradeoffs so you can choose confidently.
Single-tooth veneer repairs are common and often the fastest, most affordable option for one chipped or discolored tooth.
Your specific timeline depends on how many teeth are involved and the case complexity.
If you're unsure whether your part of Sunset is covered, a quick call settles it faster than searching online.
We coordinate Dental Veneers cases for Sunset patients from initial mockup through final polish, all under one roof. If you're weighing veneers against bonding, the consultation visit is the right place to ask.
