A digital mockup shows you your projected smile before a single tooth is prepped. Smile Center Dentistry previews your result digitally before any enamel is touched.
A rushed veneer case is how patients end up with a smile that doesn't match their face. Proportions that work on a screen don't always translate — we check the design against your actual face and smile line.
We adjust shape and shade digitally until you approve it, not after the veneers are already made. Adjustments at the mockup stage cost nothing; changes after fabrication are a different story.
Not every case needs aggressive tooth reduction — we explain what your specific teeth actually require. Preserving enamel matters for long-term tooth health, not just for this procedure.
We walk through the durability, cost, and appearance trade-offs between porcelain and composite before you choose. Neither material is universally 'better' — the right choice depends on your goals and budget.
If a veneer doesn't fit or match shade correctly, we adjust or remake it within the guarantee period. We'd rather remake one veneer than have you live with a mismatch.
The right material and number of veneers depend on what you're trying to correct.
Custom-shaded in a dental lab to match — or intentionally brighten — your natural smile. Typically requires two visits: prep and impressions, then bonding.
A tooth-colored resin is sculpted directly onto your teeth, often completed in a single visit. We explain the shorter lifespan honestly compared to porcelain.
This step lets you request adjustments — length, shape, brightness — before we touch your teeth. Nothing is finalized until you approve the design.
We match a single veneer carefully to your surrounding natural teeth so it doesn't stand out. Ideal for isolated damage rather than an overall smile makeover.
A full-arch case gets extra planning time to ensure every veneer works together, not just individually. We stage complex cases in phases when that better serves the outcome.
We'll tell you if bonding could accomplish your goal at a lower cost before recommending veneers. Not every cosmetic concern needs the more involved veneer procedure.

We create a digital mockup of your projected result for you to review and adjust.
Temporary veneers are placed while your custom ones are fabricated.
We confirm you're happy with the result before you leave the chair.
"Seeing my projected smile on a screen before committing made the whole decision so much easier."
"Single veneer to fix a chipped front tooth — matched my other teeth so well you genuinely can't tell."
"Full smile makeover took a few visits but they staged it so I wasn't without teeth at any point."
"Minimal-prep option kept more of my natural tooth intact, which mattered to me."
"The design consult alone was worth it. I changed my mind about the shape twice before we even started."
Porcelain veneers typically last 10 to 15 years with proper care; composite usually needs replacement sooner, around 5 to 7 years. A nightguard can extend lifespan significantly for patients who grind their teeth.
Tooth preparation is done with local anesthesia when needed, and most patients report minimal discomfort. Any mild sensitivity afterward typically resolves within a few days.
You approve shape and shade digitally first, which is exactly why we build that step into every case. This step exists specifically so nothing is a surprise once we start.
We walk through both honestly so you choose based on your budget and timeline, not upselling. Composite can be touched up over time; porcelain generally can't be repaired the same way.
Composite veneers can sometimes be applied with little to no enamel removal at all. Enamel removed for veneers doesn't grow back, which is why we're careful about how much we take.
Cost depends on material and how many teeth are involved — we give a specific quote after your design consult. We'd rather you understand the full cost before starting than be surprised partway through.
