If you have discolored, crooked, cracked, chipped or disproportionate teeth, porcelain veneers may be your best option. The veneers are individual porcelain shells which are placed over each tooth and can be customized to optimize the color, shape, size and alignment of your smile in as little as 3 weeks.
Cosmetic Dentistry
Smile Design or Smile Makeover refers to the use of a multitude of tools to help you achieve the smile you’ve dreamt of. This could include teeth whitening, porcelain veneers, Invisalign, implants and bridges or a combination of these services to create a smile you can be confident about!

Porcelain Veneers
Invisalign
If you like the shape and size of your teeth but just wish they were straighter or want to close gaps, you may want to consider Invisalign. Using a series of clear retainers (“aligners”), which can be removed to eat, we can straighten your teeth over the course of 12-18 months in most cases.
Teeth Whitening
If you want a brighter smile, we offer 3 options which can lighten your teeth up to 8 shades. Based on your budget and the results you want to achieve, you can use our at-home whitening strips, gel or our KOR system which is a combination of at-home and in-office treatments. We’ve found KOR provides the best results and lasts the longest.

Cost
The cost of veneers varies based on the number of teeth desired, materials used, the experience of the doctor and the location of the dental practice.
We charge $1,800 per tooth and generally recommend 8-10 veneers on your upper teeth to fully customize your smile for the most transformative outcome. The number of veneers you need will depend on the broadness of your smile and other facial factors, which will be discussed with you during your consultation. We only use porcelain for our veneers as it’s the strongest, most durable and most natural-looking material and provides the best results. Composite veneers may be less expensive but we’ve found that they tend to chip and don’t last as long, nor can you get the variation of light and color that porcelain provides.
As veneers and other cosmetic treatments are elective services, they are not covered by your dental insurance but you can use your Health Savings Account (HSA) or apply for financing through Care Credit, a third party company which provides zero or low-interest loans specifically for medical and dental procedures.
If you’re interested in financing your cosmetic treatment, please apply directly on the
Care Credit Website
and you can get approved in just a few minutes
Time
The entire process for veneers from the time you take your digital impressions to the delivery of your porcelain veneers is 3-4 weeks. With proper care and maintenance, your permanent porcelain veneers can last up to 15 years.
