Porcelain Veneers
Porcelain veneers are ultra-thin pieces of porcelain that cover the front surface of your existing teeth. These pieces are bonded over the natural tooth and are an alternative to traditional crowns.
If you are wishing to correct aesthetic dental concerns regarding the shade, spacing, and even size of your teeth, then you are an ideal candidate for porcelain veneers. Porcelain veneers can correct any cosmetic issue ranging from discoloration, tooth spacing, mild crowding, and broken or chipped teeth.

The Dental Veneer Procedure
There are three phases of the porcelain veneer process: the consultation, the preparation, and the placement.
- Consultation- To make sure that porcelain veneers are right for you, you will start with a consultation appointment with Karmazin Dental. Discussing your goals and health objectives at this appointment will help determine if porcelain veneers are an appropriate solution. We will also review the veneer options and color shades available.
- Preparation- In your preparation visit, we will start by making some room for the veneers to be placed over your existing teeth. In doing this, we will remove a thin layer of the tooth enamel. This procedure is usually painless, but we may offer you the option for anesthesia if you are feeling uncomfortable. Next, Karmazin Dental will take an impression of your teeth to use to create the new shape you are looking for with the veneers. We will also choose the most appropriate shade of porcelain to match the current color of your teeth or your selected color if you are looking to correct discoloration. Your veneers will next be created at the dental lab before they are ready for bonding.
- Placement- The last appointment is fun. Your veneers will be ready for placement, and you will get to leave with a restored, healthy smile. First, we will make sure the veneers match the color and shape desired. We may need to trim slightly before the bonding begins if they appear to need slight modification. After the veneers pass the test, we need to prepare your teeth by performing a general cleaning, polishing, and then etching of the teeth. Etching means to roughen up the front surface by using an abrasive dental liquid for the veneers to adhere to the teeth. Finally, a bonding cement will be placed before setting the veneers over the teeth. If the cement needs assistance in drying, a light will be used to quicken the curing, drying, process. When the cement has cured, you are finished. Make sure to speak with us about any follow-up appointments that are needed to ensure the veneers are comfortable after placement.

Different Versions of Veneers Available
There are different types of veneers available to achieve your perfect smile. You will want to review your options with Karmazin Dental during your consultation appointment to make sure you choose the best option for your lifestyle:
- Porcelain- The most popular type, porcelain is a durable and long-lasting option. Ceramic layers are comprised of dentin and enamel to resemble a natural look and excellent fit. There will be some reduction in your natural tooth size with this method.
- Prepless- This option requires no reduction to the natural teeth before the placement. Prepless veneer shells are extremely thin porcelain pieces that lay over the existing teeth just like traditional porcelain veneers. If you are looking to correct several dental issues you may not be the best candidate for this option.
- Minimal Prep- As the name indicates, minimal prep veneers can be placed with little preparation to the teeth before bonding. A small amount of the tooth must be removed before the veneers are placed, allowing you the option of keeping your natural tooth structure in comparison to traditional porcelain veneers.
- Composite- If you are looking for a more affordable veneer restoration, composite veneers can be a great option. There can be little to no preparation needed for the teeth before placing this restoration. Composite veneers can be just as effective in correcting dental concerns. They do not last as long as porcelain, requiring replacement in five to ten years.
