What are Dental Veneers?
Dental veneers are ultra-thin, tooth-colored shells of natural-looking material that are placed over the front surface of the teeth to cover up flaws. They are able to mask a wide array of aesthetic imperfections, including teeth that are:
- Cracked
- Chipped
- Discolored
- Misshapen
- Gapped
- Undersized
Dental porcelain and ceramic are both able to closely resemble healthy tooth enamel, leaving you with a natural final result. They’re also reliable and strong, therefore being long-lasting and stain resistant. Whether you’re looking to fix one pesky tooth or opt for a complete smile makeover, veneers could be the solution!
The Process of Getting Veneers
After you have your initial consultation where you discuss your smile goals and decide it’s time to move forward in the process, we will remove a small portion of your protective enamel off the front-facing surface of the teeth. An impression will be taken and sent off to the dental laboratory. Before you leave the office, we’ll attach temporary veneers to your prepared teeth so you can become accustomed to how your permanent ones will feel. Once your final veneers are ready, you’ll return to our dental office to have them cemented into place. If needed, small adjustments will be made so they feel comfortable and look perfectly natural.
The Benefits of Veneers
There are numerous benefits to reap when you opt for veneers to cover up imperfections. Here are just a handful of them:
- Long-Lasting: Properly maintained veneers can last 15 years or even longer!
- Customized: Veneers are made to be the exact size, shape, and color necessary to blend in with the rest of your smile.
- Stain-Resistant: The material used to make veneers resists stains more than your tooth enamel. They are a long-term solution for stubborn discoloration.
Understanding the Cost of Veneers
Understanding the cost of veneers in Garland can help you decide if this popular cosmetic solution is right for you. Like most dental services, how much you end up paying for veneers will depend in part on the quality of materials used and the expertise of your dentist. When it comes to your smile, quality counts! To learn if veneer treatment is the right path to reach your unique smile goals, take a moment to consider the information below.
Cost VS Cosmetic Dentistry: What's Right for You?
While veneers can address a wide range of aesthetic issues, it’s important to consider all your options. We offer a variety of cosmetic services at different price points that can accomplish distinct things for your appearance, such as:
- Teeth Whitening – If the color of your teeth is your primary concern, professional teeth whitening can deliver dramatic results fast. Or, for a more gradual transformation, you can brighten your smile in the comfort of your own home with professional take-home whitening kits. Keep in mind that whitening treatment only helps with tooth color, not shape or position.
- Direct Bonding – Cheap and quick, direct bonding can cover up cracks, stains, and dental gaps. Bonding treatment can typically be completed in just a single visit and must be touched up every few years by a cosmetic dentist in Garland.
- Metal-Free Restorations – Our team can repair a broken or decayed tooth with porcelain restorations so that it looks like nothing was ever wrong with your tooth in the first place.
- Veneers – Veneers may cost more than other cosmetic treatments but they are also very versatile. Transform the color, shape, and position of your teeth in a few short appointments with veneers.
- Invisalign – If you have crowded or gapped teeth, you can subtly straighten your smile with Invisalign clear braces. Invisalign is an investment of both time and money. Of course, if you also have cosmetic concerns like chipped or stained teeth, Invisalign will not address these issues.

Veneers FAQs
Are you considering undergoing a significant smile makeover? If so, veneers may provide the dramatic transformation you’re looking for. With these porcelain shells, you’ll be able to correct most dental imperfections simultaneously and enjoy the results for 15 years or more. That said, it’s natural to want to know as much as possible about the treatment before jumping on board. To help you be well-informed about your decision, our team at Dentistry By Brand has collected and responded to the most commonly asked questions we get about this procedure. Read on or give us a call today if you wish to learn more about veneers in Garland!
Do Veneers Feel Like Real Teeth?
Patients typically claim veneers that have been properly placed feel entirely natural within their mouths. Most don’t notice them when they’re eating or talking. Veneers are specifically designed to fit seamlessly on the front of your affected teeth. To do this, a small portion of the enamel is removed and impressions will be made. This will allow the perfect amount of room for the layer to fit in, preventing it from appearing bulky or unnatural. Additionally, the porcelain material will be very smooth, meaning it won’t irritate your soft oral tissues.
Are Veneers Permanent?
Since you’ll eventually have to replace them, veneers are not considered a permanent solution for your smile. Even so, you can expect to enjoy your results for 15+ years depending on how well you take care of them. The only part that is irreversible in this procedure is the tooth preparation process. Our team will need to remove a tiny amount of your protective enamel to make space for your veneers. Since enamel won’t grow back on its own, your exposed teeth will need to be covered with crowns or veneers moving forward.
How Many Veneers Will I Need?
The main priority for your veneers is to ensure all of your visible pearly whites are matching. This means you should receive an appropriate number of porcelain shells to get the job done. If you only have one pesky tooth that’s chipped, cracked, stained, or misshapen, then you may only require a single veneer to address the issue. However, some patients may end up getting anywhere around six to eight porcelain shells to enhance their smile. The only way to determine the exact number for you is through an initial consultation. During your visit, we’ll assess your situation and discuss how many veneers you’ll need to achieve your desired results.
Will I Still Be Able to Drink Coffee with Veneers?
Veneers are constructed out of porcelain, which is highly resistant to staining and discoloration. Since the material is non-porous, most particles in dark-colored foods and drinks will have a much more difficult time penetrating the surface. This means you should be able to enjoy your favorite meals and beverages without worrying much about darkening your veneers. While a warm cup of joe in the morning won’t immediately discolor your new smile, you should remember that the porcelain shells aren’t completely stain-proof. Overexposure to dark pigments can cause your veneers to stain over time, so it’s best to drink coffee in moderation.
