Granbury Dental Veneers

What are dental veneers?

Dental veneers are custom-made porcelain coverings that bond to the front surface of teeth. They’re designed to correct cosmetic issues such as chips, deep stains, minor misalignment, or irregular shapes. Veneers are especially popular among patients looking for a quick but dramatic smile upgrade that still looks natural.

Each veneer is carefully shaped and shaded to match your existing teeth. Because only a thin layer of enamel is removed during preparation, this treatment is considered minimally invasive and offers long-lasting results with proper care.

Why we recommend veneers

Dental veneers offer an excellent option for patients who want to enhance their smile without extensive dental work. We often recommend veneers if you’re looking to:

Because they blend so seamlessly with the rest of your smile, Granbury dental veneers can help restore both your confidence and your overall facial symmetry.

The benefits of starting treatment early

Cosmetic concerns like staining, wear, or mild misalignment tend to worsen with time. Delaying treatment can lead to more extensive enamel loss or shifting that may require more complex correction later. Veneers offer a straightforward way to restore your smile’s appearance while the underlying tooth structure is still healthy and intact.

Starting sooner can also give you the full benefit of longer-lasting results, and it allows you to enjoy a bright, confident smile every day.

Veneers vs. other cosmetic options

If you’re looking to improve the appearance of your teeth, there are several options — but not all deliver the same level of transformation:

We’ll help you compare your options and choose the best cosmetic solution based on your goals and smile needs.

Benefits of dental veneers

Natural-looking results

Each veneer is custom-designed to match the color, contour, and size of your natural teeth — ensuring a flawless, undetectable finish that blends into your smile.

Stain-resistant material

Porcelain resists discoloration better than natural enamel, helping your smile stay brighter and more consistent in tone for years to come.

Long-lasting durability

With proper care, dental veneers can last 10 to 15 years or more. They’re crafted from durable materials that are built to withstand daily use.

Minimally invasive treatment

The procedure preserves most of your natural tooth structure. You get dramatic results with little to no discomfort and minimal downtime.

What to expect during your veneer procedure

Step 1 – Smile consultation and planning

Your veneer journey begins with a personalized consultation, where we take time to understand your goals and evaluate the areas of your smile you’d like to enhance. Using photos, digital scans, and a detailed exam, we’ll determine whether veneers are the right solution for your needs. Together, we’ll choose the ideal shape, size, and shade for your new smile.

Step 2 – Tooth preparation and temporary veneers

To make room for the veneers, we carefully remove a thin layer of enamel from the surface of each tooth — just enough to ensure a natural-looking fit. We’ll then take impressions, either digitally or with traditional methods, and send them to a dental lab for fabrication. Before you leave, temporary veneers will be placed to protect your teeth and give you a preview of your final result.

Step 3 – Custom veneer creation

Your impressions are used to create high-quality porcelain veneers, crafted by skilled technicians to match the shape and color of your natural teeth. This process typically takes one to two weeks, allowing time for precision and artistry. During this period, you can continue to eat, speak, and smile confidently with your temporary veneers.

Step 4 – Final placement and bonding

Once your permanent veneers are ready, we’ll remove the temporaries and test the fit, color, and contour of each restoration. If everything looks and feels right, we’ll bond the veneers in place using strong dental cement and polish them for a seamless finish. The result is a bright, balanced smile designed to last for years.
