Porcelain Veneers

At our Orlando dental practice, we understand that your smile is as unique as your own natural beauty. If you’re wondering “how to get a perfect smile in Orlando” or “looking for the best way to fix my smile,” porcelain veneers offer a transformative solution. This popular cosmetic procedure is perfect for improving the appearance of your front teeth (or the “smile zone”) right here at our Orlando or Alafaya offices.

Porcelain veneers offer a transformative solution with a personal touch to meet your specific aesthetic needs. In fact, many people appreciate that they can update their smile quickly with porcelain veneers in Orlando and Alafaya, FL. It takes much less time to get dramatic tooth straightening and whitening results with veneers than with orthodontics, and it appeals to some patients who want faster solutions for uneven teeth solutions. We offer both veneer consultations in Orlando and Alfaya and orthodontic consultations if you are trying to decide between the two cosmetic dentistry services.

How Do Our Porcelain Veneers in Alafaya and Orlando Improve Your Smile?

These custom-fitted veneers made out of high-quality dental porcelain are meticulously crafted to match the natural color of your teeth, resulting in a seamless and radiant smile. By using the latest in modern dental technology, our porcelain veneers are not only beautiful, but also durable — providing you with a confident smile that can endure the test of time.

Remember, when it comes to enhancing your smile, choosing the right dental care is paramount. We believe when it comes to your oral health — as with life in general — “the best investment is into yourself.” Our team is dedicated to guiding you through each step of the treatment process, helping you discover new teeth that look real.

You can trust our abilities when you choose us as your veneer dentist in Alafaya or Orlando. Be assured that your journey to a completely revitalized smile will be positive from the first consultation to the moment you see the stunning results.

What Problems Can Porcelain Veneers Repair?

Porcelain veneers are thin shells of tooth-colored porcelain that our cosmetic dentist bonds to the front(s) of your teeth to create a new, blemish-free surface. We commonly use veneers to:

Fix chipped, cracked, or broken teeth (if you’ve had to ask yourself, “my tooth broke what do I do” or you need to know how to repair a cracked tooth)
Fill gaps and spacing issues between teeth
Improve the appearance of a poorly-shaped tooth for uneven teeth solutions
Hide misalignments for a more symmetrical smile
Conceal severe tooth staining or discoloration to get rid of yellow teeth

The process of placing veneers typically requires two to three visits to complete. Since we customize each veneer to look and feel natural within your smile, your final veneers will look realistic and blend harmoniously with your surrounding teeth.

Are Porcelain Veneers Right for Me?

As a minimally invasive treatment, a porcelain veneer can be a highly effective restoration for a wide range of patients. In general, those who can benefit from porcelain veneers have:

Mild cosmetic flaws affecting their teeth
No signs of gum disease, infections, pain, or other functional problems
Severe discoloration too dark to correct with teeth whitening
A minor misalignment in their tooth that may not require orthodontic treatment

Whether you’re an older patient wanting to correct years of wear and tear, or you’re in your twenties or thirties wishing to replicate the full dimensions of a healthy tooth, porcelain veneers can help. For those with several different aesthetic concerns preventing a renewed, youthful smile, a Smile Makeover can also be an ideal treatment. Dr. Nadine and our team offer personalized advice and guidance during your consultation.

What Are Some Reasons to Get Veneers in Alafaya or Orlando, FL?

Patients get veneers for various reasons. Some benefits of having porcelain veneers placed include:

Updating the overall look and consistency of “smile zone” teeth in just a few appointments
Having the appearance of brighter, more evenly distributed teeth at the front of the mouth
Feeling more comfortable and confident in social and professional situations

How is Treatment with Porcelain Veneers Performed?

Porcelain veneers are placed in-office, typically without the need for sedation or anesthesia. During the treatment process, a small portion of your enamel is removed from the affected tooth in order to create room for the veneer. This helps achieve a natural, organic fit for your restoration. Impressions of your teeth are then taken and sent to an outside dental lab, where your veneer is custom-crafted out of high-quality dental porcelain. In the meantime, a temporary veneer is placed until your permanent restoration is ready for bonding.

During your second appointment (which often takes place one week later), your custom veneer will be fitted to ensure it exists comfortably and naturally within your smile. Once accustomed to the veneer, many patients even forget they have it! These restorations can last for years, and even decades, with good care.

How Should I Care For My Porcelain Veneers?

While porcelain veneers are relatively maintenance-free, you must maintain good oral health if you want them to last. The best way to extend the longevity of your veneers is to:

Brush twice and floss once daily to avoid developing decay or gum disease
Use a custom night guard, if necessary, to protect your teeth and veneers from damage caused by teeth grinding
Avoid chewing ice or biting down on crunchy foods, as anything that can chip a tooth may also damage a veneer
Follow through with routine exams and teeth cleaning appointments so we can ensure your teeth are healthy

One of the most significant benefits of porcelain veneers is their ability to stay in good condition without any more maintenance than the dental hygiene required by natural teeth. We encourage rinsing, brushing, and flossing your teeth consistently to limit bacteria buildup in the mouth, and to maximize the full integrity of your veneers.

In just a few office appointments, porcelain veneers can make a powerful, long-term improvement to your entire appearance. Contact Maple Dentistry Orlando to schedule a consultation, or to learn whether cosmetic porcelain veneers are the right treatment option to enhance your smile.

What Costs Are Associated With Veneers?

Buying veneers in Orlando or Alafaya is an investment in your smile. Often, dental insurance providers may not cover some, most or any of the cost of veneers. Therefore, we make sure you know upfront at your consultation how much your veneers will cost.

Patients sometimes prefer to pay for their dental veneers using third-party financing cards or credit cards to get a beautiful smile without paying the full porcelain veneer purchase amount immediately.

Other Dental Services We Offer

In addition to your porcelain veneers appointment in Orlando or Alafaya, you may want to talk with our dentists about other tooth and gum updates and corrections. We offer numerous dental services that may be complementary to the placement of porcelain veneers.

Some of our more requested dental services among porcelain veneer patients include:

Teeth whitening: Professional teeth whitening can improve the appearance of your teeth by lightening the color of the outer part of the tooth. Our team relies on top-quality cosmetic whitening products that minimize tooth and gum sensitivity and achieve whiter teeth quickly.
Dental implants: Losing one or more teeth can be both embarrassing and challenging. Without a tooth, you may lose the ability to eat or speak comfortably. If you need to replace a tooth, dental implants offer permanent restorations and give you a new “tooth” that should last for decades.
Tooth-colored fillings: After getting your porcelain veneers in Orlando or Alafaya, you may still worry about the look of metallic fillings in your other teeth. Having the fillings updated with tooth-colored materials can remove unwanted metal from your mouth.
