Veneers are thin restorations that are used to improve color, close spaces, and correct the shape of teeth. Veneers require less tooth preparation than conventional crowns and are made of porcelain or resin. A bonding process is used to attach veneers to teeth.

Porcelain Veneers
Porcelain veneers are the "Gold Standard" in dental esthetics. These restorations are laboratory fabricated and provide a more predictable long-term solution than resin veneers. Porcelain is color stable and maintains its enamel appearance over time.

Resin Veneers
Resin veneers can be laboratory fabricated or directly applied. In our practice resin veneers are generally directly applied. These restorations work well in situations where only one or two teeth require esthetic changes. The main advantage with resin veneers is that color can be matched chairside. Also, because direst resin veneers are completed in one appointment, no temporary restorations are required.

The main disadvantage with any resin restoration is that over time surface deterioration and staining can occur. Resin veneers do not usually last as long as porcelain veneers.
