What Are Veneers?

Veneers are thin, custom-made shells of tooth-colored materials, like beautiful ceramic porcelain, designed to cover the front surface of your teeth. They are an excellent choice for improving the appearance of your smile, addressing concerns such as discoloration, chips, gaps, and misalignment. Dr. Shahira Saad is a skilled cosmetic dentist who can help you achieve the brilliant, confident smile you deserve.

Types of Veneers

Traditional Porcelain Veneers

Our premium porcelain veneers are custom-crafted by master ceramists using high-quality ceramic materials. This treatment provides the most natural-looking and durable results, closely mimicking the light-reflecting properties of natural tooth enamel.

Traditional porcelain veneers require minimal tooth preparation and can last 10-15 years or more with proper care.

For patients seeking a more conservative approach, no-prep veneers offer smile transformation with little-to-no tooth preparation required. These ultra-thin porcelain veneers are bonded directly to your natural teeth, preserving more of your original tooth structure.

This approach is ideal for patients with healthy teeth who want to enhance their smile’s color, shape, or size without extensive preparation.

Composite veneers are crafted from tooth-colored resin material and can often be completed in a single visit. While more affordable than porcelain options, composite veneers provide excellent aesthetic results for addressing minor imperfections, gaps, or discoloration. Dr. Saad will help you determine which veneer option best suits your smile goals and lifestyle.

The benefits of Veneers

Custom-crafted by master ceramists, veneers are a minimally-invasive way to transform your smile and boost your confidence.

Natural-Looking Results

Veneers are crafted from high-quality, durable materials closely resembling the appearance of natural teeth. Dr. Saad works with a master ceramist to ensure your veneers are customized to complement your unique facial features and skin tone, resulting in a seamless, natural-looking smile.

Versatile Solution

This treatment can address a wide range of cosmetic dental concerns, including discoloration, chipped or broken teeth, gaps, minor misalignments or crooked teeth, minor crowding, and worn or irregularly shaped teeth.

Long-Lasting and Durable

Veneers are made from strong, durable materials able to withstand the daily pressures of biting and chewing. With proper care and maintenance, your veneers can last for 10-15 years or more, providing you with a beautiful, confident smile for years to come.

The Veneers Treatment Process

Step 1: Consultation & Smile Design

During your initial consultation, Dr. Saad will perform a comprehensive exam, discuss your smile goals, and determine if veneers are the best option for you. She will take a series of dental and facial photos in our photo studio, as well as digital scans using our iTero scanner. This information is used by our Newport Beach team and our master ceramist to fabricate the proposed new smile with a diagnostic wax-up. This model is used to design your custom veneers and visualize your final results.

Step 2: Preparation & Temporaries

Dr. Saad will prepare your teeth for the veneers using extremely conservative preparation technique, and sometimes will require no preparation at all! A set of temporary veneers will be created based on the diagnostic wax-up. This gives patients the ability to test drive their new smile before the finals are permanently cemented. You'll then return for a 24-hour post-op check in which we will verify the shape and length of the teeth, color, bite, and speech. Photos and scan of the temporaries are also taken.

Step 3: Final Placement & Reveal

Once your custom veneers are ready, you'll return to LALUME Dental Studio for the final placement. Final veneers will be tried on and you'll have the opportunity to see and approve your veneers before cementation. Dr. Saad will ensure a perfect fit and make any necessary adjustments before bonding the veneers to your teeth. A final scan is also taken of your new veneers for fabrication of a retainer or nightguard.

Step 4: Final Check-In & Photos

After two weeks, you'll return for a final check up appointment. Dr. Saad will sit down with you to ensure everything looks and feels good, and deliver your retainer or nightguard to help protect your new smile. Lastly, a final set of photos will be taken to showcase your beautiful transformation.

FAQs

Have questions about veneers? We have answers.

With proper care and maintenance, veneers can last for 10-15 years or more. Dr. Saad will provide you with guidelines to help you maintain your veneers and extend their lifespan.

The veneer process is generally not painful, as Dr. Saad will use local anesthesia to ensure your comfort during the procedure. Some patients may experience mild sensitivity following the placement of their veneers, but this typically subsides within a few days.

Caring for your veneers is similar to caring for your natural teeth. Brush twice daily with a soft-bristled toothbrush and non-abrasive toothpaste, floss daily, and attend regular dental check-ups at LALUME Dental Studio. Avoid biting on hard objects or using your teeth as tools to prevent damaging your veneers.

This treatment is considered cosmetic and typically not covered by dental insurance. At LALUME Dental Studio, we accept most PPO plans for general dentistry and offer financing through Cherry and CareCredit to help make the procedure affordable for Newport Beach patients.
