Affordable Dental Veneers in Petersburg & Dinwiddie, VA

Dental veneers are thin shells that are placed on the front surface of the teeth to hide any flaws and make the teeth appear straight and even. If you have crowding, chipped or worn teeth, or areas of staining, dental veneers could be a great solution for you! Dental veneers are customizable, meaning the shade and shape can be adjusted to give you your dream smile. Veneers are durable and, with proper care, can last many years before needing replacement or repairs.

Before your veneers are placed, we may have to remove a small amount of tooth enamel to make room for them. We’ll then make impressions of your teeth so we can custom-build your veneers. When they are finished, you’ll return to our office, and we’ll bond them to the front of your teeth. We will then make any final adjustments needed to create your great new look.

FAQ

  • How do dental veneers work?

    Dental veneers are incredibly thin shells that are applied to the front surfaces of a person’s teeth. Depending on the veneer style, the teeth may be prepped by removing a small amount of enamel. Once installed, the veneers can cover noticeable flaws to make adjustments to alignment. They can also adjust their thickness to improve spacing.

    They are very easy to apply, requiring only tooth preparation and then securing them in place with a strong dental adhesive.

  • What types of dental veneers are available?

    The two main types of dental veneers are porcelain veneers and composite veneers. Both are good options for improving your smile.

    Composite veneers are manufactured in-office, using tooth-colored resin, and applied directly to the teeth. They are typically less expensive and quicker to apply than porcelain veneers, and they work well to address many aesthetic concerns.

    Porcelain veneers are custom-made to fit your teeth. These are typically made in a laboratory and sent to our office. We will apply them and ensure they fit your teeth properly. Porcelain veneers generally last longer because of their stronger material, provide a more natural look, and can fix larger cosmetic issues, such as very darkly stained teeth or teeth positioned incorrectly.

  • How long do dental veneers last?

    Our veneers are made from a high-quality material designed to last. On average, most veneers last 10-15 years. However, with exceptional dental care, your dental veneers can last more than 20 years. If your dental veneers need repair or replacement, please contact our office right away so we can get you smiling again.
