What Are Veneers?

Veneers, often called “dental contact lenses,” are thin, custom-made porcelain shells bonded to the front of your teeth. They’re a top cosmetic dentistry choice for fixing:

Gaps or spacing issues between teeth.
Misshapen, chipped, or cracked teeth.
Discoloration unresponsive to whitening.
Worn-down or small teeth (e.g., lateral incisors).
Minor crowding or misalignment.

With porcelain veneers, you get a dramatic smile upgrade that’s both durable and aesthetically flawless.

Why Choose Porcelain Veneers?

Natural Appearance

Yes, porcelain veneers look incredibly natural! Using advanced German CEREC technology, we design each veneer to match your teeth’s shape, size, color, and luster. They blend seamlessly with your smile, with imperceptible edges for a high-quality finish.

Pain-Free Process

Does getting veneers hurt? Not at all! We use local anesthesia for a comfortable experience, and our skilled dentists prioritize your relaxation. Temporary veneers protect your teeth during the process, preventing sensitivity until your permanent porcelain veneers are ready.

Long-Lasting Results

With proper care, porcelain veneers can last 10–20 years. Made from stain-resistant, durable porcelain, they keep your smile bright and youthful. Routine oral hygiene and optional night guards (for grinders) help maintain them long-term.

The Veneer Process at Bayside Dental

Step 1: Consultation & Planning

We discuss your smile goals—whether you want a perfect, bright look or a subtle, natural enhancement. X-rays check for decay or gum issues that need addressing first.

Step 2: Teeth Preparation

We remove about 0.5mm of enamel, take impressions or digital scans, and send them to our lab. Temporary veneers keep you comfortable while your custom porcelain veneers are crafted.

Step 3: Veneer Fixing

In your second visit (1–8 days later), we test each veneer’s fit and color, then bond them with special cement hardened by a light beam. A follow-up may check gum response and fit.

Alternatives to Porcelain Veneers

Not sure if veneers are right for you? We’ll explore all options during your consultation:

Crowns: Best for severely damaged or decayed teeth, crowns cover the entire tooth for strength and aesthetics. Unlike veneers, they require more tooth reduction.
Composite Bonding: A quicker, budget-friendly option using tooth-colored resin. It’s less durable and stain-resistant than porcelain veneers but ideal for minor fixes.

Your dentist will assess your dental health, budget, and goals to recommend the perfect solution.

Who Needs Veneers?

Patients with chipped, stained, or uneven teeth.
Those seeking a fast, dramatic smile makeover.
Anyone wanting a natural yet enhanced look without braces.

At Bayside Dental Discovery Bay, veneers offer a tailored fix for esthetic concerns.
