Chips, gaps, and uneven edges don't have to mean years of orthodontics — veneers can address the appearance directly. Smile Center Dentistry previews your result digitally before any enamel is touched.
A rushed veneer case is how patients end up with a smile that doesn't match their face. We'd rather spend extra time on the mockup stage than redo a finished case.
We adjust shape and shade digitally until you approve it, not after the veneers are already made. We walk through the mockup together, not just email you a file to review alone.
When your case allows it, we use minimal-prep veneers that preserve more of your natural enamel. Preserving enamel matters for long-term tooth health, not just for this procedure.
Composite can often be done in a single visit; porcelain takes longer but resists staining better — we explain both honestly. Neither material is universally 'better' — the right choice depends on your goals and budget.
We don't consider the case finished until the fit and color are right, not just acceptable. Shade matching is checked in natural light, not just under the exam lamp.
The right material and number of veneers depend on what you're trying to correct.
Custom-shaded in a dental lab to match — or intentionally brighten — your natural smile. Typically requires two visits: prep and impressions, then bonding.
A more affordable, reversible option for patients who want results without committing to porcelain. We explain the shorter lifespan honestly compared to porcelain.
This step lets you request adjustments — length, shape, brightness — before we touch your teeth. Nothing is finalized until you approve the design.
A chipped or discolored single tooth can often be addressed with one veneer rather than a full smile case. Ideal for isolated damage rather than an overall smile makeover.
For patients addressing multiple teeth at once, we plan shape, shade, and symmetry across the full arch. We stage complex cases in phases when that better serves the outcome.
We'll tell you if bonding could accomplish your goal at a lower cost before recommending veneers. Not every cosmetic concern needs the more involved veneer procedure.
We ask what you'd like to change about your smile when you book, so the consult is focused.
We create a digital mockup of your projected result for you to review and adjust.
Temporary veneers are placed while your custom ones are fabricated.
Your finished veneers are bonded and checked for fit, bite, and shade match.
"Seeing my projected smile on a screen before committing made the whole decision so much easier."
"Went with composite for budget reasons and they were upfront that it wouldn't last as long as porcelain. No pressure to upgrade."
"Full smile makeover took a few visits but they staged it so I wasn't without teeth at any point."
"Minimal-prep option kept more of my natural tooth intact, which mattered to me."
"Asked about bonding first since I only had one chipped tooth and they said it would work fine — saved me money over a full veneer."
Lifespan depends on material and habits like grinding — we discuss realistic expectations at your consult. We'll recommend the material likely to hold up best for your specific habits.
Tooth preparation is done with local anesthesia when needed, and most patients report minimal discomfort. Any mild sensitivity afterward typically resolves within a few days.
Yes — our digital smile design mockup shows your projected result before any prep work begins. This step exists specifically so nothing is a surprise once we start.
Porcelain is more durable and stain-resistant but costs more and takes longer; composite is faster and cheaper but wears sooner. Composite can be touched up over time; porcelain generally can't be repaired the same way.
Composite veneers can sometimes be applied with little to no enamel removal at all. Enamel removed for veneers doesn't grow back, which is why we're careful about how much we take.
Cost depends on material and how many teeth are involved — we give a specific quote after your design consult. Financing options are available for larger cases.
Our veneer team serves Tennille and the surrounding zip codes with the same design-first process at every visit. Whether you want one tooth addressed or a full smile makeover, our Tennille team handles both.
We'll show you a mockup before you commit to anything permanent.
