To ensure that your veneers bond well to your teeth, we will remove a thin layer of enamel.
Benefits of Porcelain Veneers
There are very few cosmetic treatments that offer the same effects as dental veneers.
Addresses Multiple Issues
In a single treatment, veneers can combine the effects of teeth whitening, orthodontics, and dental bonding.
Stain-Resistant Restoration
Veneers are more stain-resistant than natural teeth, allowing you to maintain the results of this cosmetic dentistry treatment for years with proper care.
Improved Appearance & Confidence
Porcelain veneers can improve your appearance, helping to increase your self-confidence and willingness to smile.
Good Candidates for Veneers
Veneers are a highly versatile and customizable cosmetic treatment that can address a wide range of aesthetic concerns, such as:
- Gaps
- Chips
- Cracks
- Misalignment
- Uneven teeth
- Irregularly shaped teeth
- Worn teeth
- Discoloration
Lumineers
Patients who do not qualify for traditional veneers may be able to transform their smile with Lumineers, which are minimal-prep veneers. In many cases, Lumineers can be placed on the teeth without removing any tooth enamel; in other cases, we may remove a very small amount.
This treatment option is best for patients with very minor cosmetic flaws in order to ensure Lumineers don't look bulky or fake. If Dr. Tavoian finds that traditional veneers will look more like natural teeth and produce a better aesthetic result, he will recommend this option. Overall, we can help you determine the optimal cosmetic dentistry treatment plan to fit your needs, cosmetic goals, and budget when you visit us for a dental consultation at our Cedar City practice.
The Veneers Treatment Process
Your dental veneers will be designed to look as natural and beautiful as possible.
How Long Do Veneers Last?
Once your veneers have been bonded in place, they can last for 10 to 15 years with proper care. Here are some tips to prolong the lifespan of your veneers:
Brushing
Brush your teeth and veneers with a gentle, non-abrasive toothpaste using a soft-bristled toothbrush. Gel toothpastes are typically ideal, while whitening toothpastes tend to be harsher. It is also important to use a light touch when brushing the teeth. This will prevent premature damage to your veneers.
Flossing
Patients should floss at least once a day to keep the underlying teeth healthy and prevent cavities and gum disease. If oral health problems affect a tooth with veneers, the veneer will need to be removed to address the problem.
Avoid Bad Habits
Using your teeth as tools, biting your fingernails, and chronic teeth grinding can gradually damage your veneers or cause them to become dislodged. Take care of your veneers and teeth to make them last as long as possible.

I travel 3 hrs just to get my dental work done by him and his staff. I'll never go anywhere else as long as he is still working!" Jen Richards - 5-Star Review
