What are dental veneers and how do they work?

Dental veneers are thin, custom-made shells—usually made from porcelain or composite resin—designed to cover the front surface of your teeth. They help improve the appearance of stained, chipped, or misaligned teeth by creating a natural, symmetrical smile.

What’s the difference between porcelain veneers and composite dental veneers?

Porcelain veneers are more durable and stain-resistant, offering a natural shine similar to tooth enamel. Composite dental veneers are a more affordable option, applied in a single visit, but may not last as long as porcelain.

Are veneers teeth permanent?

Porcelain veneers are considered a long-term solution but may need replacement after 10–15 years. Since a small amount of enamel is removed during the process, veneers are not reversible, but they are durable and low-maintenance.

Am I a good candidate for dental veneers treatment?

You may be a great candidate for veneers if you have healthy teeth and gums but want to improve cosmetic issues like discoloration, gaps, or uneven teeth. Our expert dentists in Dallas will evaluate your smile to recommend the best veneer option.
