Veneers in Denver, CO
Dental veneers are thin shells that are placed on the front surface of the teeth to hide any imperfections and give a straight and uniform appearance to the teeth. If you are experiencing any issues such as crowded teeth, chipped or worn-down teeth, or even discoloration, dental veneers can be a great solution for you! The best part is that they can be customized to match your preferred shade and shape, giving you the perfect smile that you have always wanted. With proper care, dental veneers can last for many years before requiring replacement or repairs.
Before placing the veneers, we may need to remove a small amount of tooth enamel to make space for them. We will then take an impression of your teeth to create custom-made veneers. Once they are ready, you will return to our office where we will bond them to the front of your teeth, making any final adjustments to ensure that you get the perfect look.

How do dental veneers work?
Dental veneers are thin shells that are placed on the front surfaces of teeth. Depending on the type of veneers, a small amount of enamel may be removed from the teeth before applying them. Veneers can cover noticeable flaws, adjust tooth alignment, and improve spacing by changing their thickness. They are easy to apply and require preparation of the teeth followed by securing them with a strong dental adhesive.

What types of dental veneers are available?
There are two main types of dental veneers: porcelain veneers and composite veneers. Both types are great options to improve the appearance of your smile.
Composite veneers are made in the dental office using tooth-colored resin. They are applied directly to the teeth and are typically less expensive and quicker to apply than porcelain veneers. Composite veneers work well to cover up many cosmetic issues.
Porcelain veneers, on the other hand, are custom-made out of porcelain to fit your teeth. They are usually made in a laboratory and then sent to our office for application. We will ensure that they fit your teeth perfectly. Porcelain veneers generally last longer because of their stronger material. They also provide a more natural look and can fix larger cosmetic issues such as very dark stained teeth or teeth that are positioned incorrectly.
