Porcelain Veneers & Composite Veneers

Designed to substitute for tooth enamel, veneers are wafer thin shells of tooth colored materialdesigned to be placed over the entire surface of the teeth, typically the ones that show when yousmile. Each custom made shell is bonded to the front of the teeth, which completely changestheir appearance, color, shape, size, or length. We encourage you to spend time in thedecision-making and planning of your smile.

Composite Bonding

A tooth-colored composite resin attached to a portion of the tooth whichcan improve the appearance and strength of chipped teeth or moderate changes. Theseprocedures require very little preparation (drilling) of the tooth and can be completed in oneappointment. Composite resin is not as hardy as porcelain veneers or crowns and can stain ordull but is easily repaired and refreshed.
