Porcelain Veneers

Studio City, Valley Village, Sherman Oaks, Burbank, North Hollywood

Porcelain veneers are the perfect solution for patients who wish to improve the look of teeth without an invasive treatment. Veneers are very thin, wafer-like pieces of custom-designed material that are affixed to the front sides of teeth. There is very little natural enamel removal, and veneers will not weaken the teeth.

What types of problems can porcelain veneers address? If you’re not happy with the size, color, shape, length, or position of teeth, porcelain veneers may be the right way to go.

Porcelain is the ideal material for the creation of veneers because it has many qualities similar to those of enamel. It reflects light like natural teeth do and can be closely matched to your tooth shade. Not only are the results truly beautiful, but your veneered teeth will be just as strong and durable.

At Smiles By Sands, we offer feldspathic porcelain veneers — a technique in which our dentists use strategic layers of porcelain to provide very natural coloring, attractive luster and fine detail. We feel this technique allows us more creative control in seeking that Hollywood smile for each patient.

Porcelain veneers can be placed in just two visits! During your first visit, the dentist will measure and evaluate the teeth to be veneered. Then, a small amount of enamel is removed to make room for the new additions. A special putty is used to create a mold of the treated teeth, and then the mold is then sent to our lab for development. After your veneers are crafted in our lab, the dentist will carefully affix them with a special resin which is hardened by using a safe lamp. In a quick two visits, you’ve got a confident, new smile!

Veneers will not affect your ability to eat the foods you love. Your doctor will give you specific instructions to keep your veneers looking great for many years. (See Caring for Your Porcelain Veneers.) If you are searching for a conservative, natural-looking and affordable way to enhance your smile, porcelain veneers from Smiles By Sands could be your answer.
