If you’re like most adults, brushing and flossing alone isn’t enough to give you the flawless smile you desire. Not only would you like to have a whiter, brighter smile, but you’d like to cover up the chips that have accumulated over the years, and maybe even the slight misalignments that showed up years after your braces were removed. Porcelain veneers lead the list of aesthetic treatments and are a wildly popular procedure that can correct those little imperfections you’ve noticed in the mirror.

What Are Porcelain Veneers?

Made of thin sheaths of porcelain layered one on top of the other, porcelain veneers fit neatly over your existing teeth. Usually placed to correct the most visible front teeth, veneers are slightly translucent and allow light to pass through just like your real smile. This gives porcelain veneers a very natural look. So natural, in fact, only you and Dr. Tracey will know you’ve had a cosmetic enhancement.

What Can I Expect At My First Appointment?

Your initial appointment will take about an hour. First we’ll assess your oral health to be sure veneers are right for you. If you have an example of a smile you really like, such as a celebrity photo or magazine clipping, bring it with you so that we can discuss the features you’d like reflected in your new veneers. We’ll also take a few notes on the shade of your teeth, your skin tone, even your facial symmetry. After all, sculpting beautiful teeth is as much an art as it is a science!

Will My Teeth Need Preparation?

Usually a little preparation is necessary to get your teeth ready for your porcelain veneers. Dr. Tracey will buff 1mm or less to make sure your veneers line up perfectly with the rest of your smile. We may place temporary veneers until your custom porcelain veneers arrive from the lab. Don’t worry, we’ll make sure you understand everything about your treatment ahead of time.

Finally, a New Smile!

When your veneers arrive at our Pomona dental office, we’ll have you come back in for placement. Dr. Tracey will make sure you like the look of your new smile first. Once we bond your veneers, they’re on permanently, so be sure to let us know if you want any changes. A little anesthetic to make sure you’re comfy and we’ll begin your transformation. The best part about your new porcelain veneers is you’ll walk out of our office with a gorgeous new smile!
