Porcelain Veneers in Upland, CA
Chipped, stained, or unevenly shaped teeth can hold back your smile. Our custom porcelain veneers cover imperfections with a thin, natural-looking shell, giving you a brighter, more even smile in as few as two visits.
What to Expect from Porcelain Veneers
Veneers are ultra-thin shells of porcelain bonded to the front of your teeth. They can close gaps, even out length, and mask discoloration that whitening alone can’t fix, all while looking completely natural.
We start with a smile consultation and a small amount of tooth preparation, then take an impression to design your custom veneers. Once they’re crafted to match your desired shade and shape, we bond them permanently for a lasting, camera-ready smile.
Because porcelain resists staining and mimics the way light reflects off natural enamel, veneers stay bright for years with normal brushing, flossing, and regular checkups.
Frequently Asked Questions About Porcelain Veneers
Is getting veneers painful?
The process is virtually painless. We numb the area before lightly reshaping the tooth surface, and most patients describe the experience as similar to a routine filling. Any mild sensitivity afterward typically fades within a day or two.
How long do veneers last?
With good oral hygiene, porcelain veneers typically last 10 to 15 years or longer. Avoiding habits like nail-biting or using your teeth as tools, along with regular dental visits, helps them go the distance.
Do veneers require special care?
Veneers don’t need special products, just the same brushing, flossing, and routine dental visits you’d normally do. We do recommend avoiding biting on very hard objects like ice or fingernails to protect the porcelain from chipping.
How many veneers will I need?
It depends on your goals. Some patients choose a single veneer to match an isolated chip or discoloration, while others opt for six to ten veneers across their smile for a more uniform, symmetrical look. We’ll recommend the right number during your consultation.
