Preparation
A small amount of enamel may be gently removed to help the veneer fit naturally.
Temporary Veneers
Temporary veneers may be placed while the final porcelain veneers are being made.
Placement
The final veneers are bonded to your teeth and checked for appearance, fit, and comfort.
Smile Reveal
The result is a brighter, more balanced, and natural-looking smile.
