Porcelain veneers are thin, custom-made shells of tooth-colored materials designed to cover the front surface of teeth to improve their appearance. These wafer-thin coverings are bonded to the front of the teeth, changing their color, shape, size, or length, and can dramatically enhance your smile.
Porcelain Veneers can help with mild to moderate cosmetic dentistry issues, including:
Your journey begins with a comprehensive consultation at our Flowood office. During this visit, our experienced dentists will:
This consultation is your opportunity to express your desires and concerns. We’ll work together to create a personalized treatment plan that aligns with your vision for your ideal smile.
Once we’ve decided that porcelain veneers are right for you, we’ll begin the preparation process. This typically involves:
We use local anesthesia to keep you comfortable during this process. Our goal is to preserve as much of your natural tooth structure as possible while creating the perfect canvas for your new smile.
While your custom veneers are being crafted in our state-of-the-art dental lab, we’ll fit you with temporary veneers. These serve several important purposes:
Wear your temporary veneers with care, as they’re not as durable as the final product. This is your chance to get used to the feel of veneers and make any adjustments before the permanent ones are placed.
When your custom porcelain veneers are ready, you’ll return to our Flowood office for the exciting final step. Here’s what you can expect:
After the veneer bonding process, we’ll make any necessary final adjustments to your bite and veneer shape. You’ll leave our office with a brand-new, dazzling smile!
Your journey doesn’t end when you leave our office with your new veneers. We’re committed to ensuring the longevity of your beautiful new smile. Here’s what you can expect in terms of dental veneer aftercare and follow-up visits:
For the first few days after getting your veneers, you might experience some sensitivity to hot and cold. This is normal and should subside within a week. We recommend avoiding very hot or cold foods and drinks during this time.
Maintain excellent oral hygiene by brushing twice daily with non-abrasive fluoride toothpaste and flossing once a day. This helps prevent decay and gum disease, which can compromise your veneers.
We’ll schedule a follow-up appointment about two weeks after your veneer placement. During this visit, we’ll check the fit and comfort of your veneers and make any necessary adjustments.
Schedule regular dental check-ups every six months. During these visits, we’ll professionally clean your teeth and veneers, and check for any issues that might affect your veneers or overall oral health.
With proper care, your porcelain veneers can last 10-15 years or even longer. We’ll provide guidance on how to protect your veneers, such as avoiding biting on hard objects and wearing a night guard if you grind your teeth.
Most dental insurance plans consider veneers a cosmetic procedure and may not provide coverage. However, if veneers are deemed medically necessary (e.g., to repair damaged teeth), partial coverage may be available. Our team can help you navigate your insurance benefits and maximize any available coverage.

With proper care, porcelain veneers can last 10 to 15 years or even longer. The longevity of your veneers depends on factors such as your oral hygiene habits, lifestyle, and how well you follow aftercare instructions. Regular dental check-ups can help maintain the health of your veneers and natural teeth.
The porcelain veneer process is generally not reversible because a small amount of enamel is removed from your natural teeth to accommodate the veneers. However, if you decide to remove your veneers in the future, they can be replaced with new veneers or another type of restoration to protect your prepared teeth.
Yes. While traditional composite veneers can look similar to natural teeth, modern porcelain veneers are designed to look incredibly natural. They’re custom-made to match the color, translucency, and shape of your natural teeth. Our skilled cosmetic dentists take great care in designing veneers that enhance your smile while still looking completely natural.
You can eat most foods normally with porcelain veneers. However, it’s advisable to avoid biting into very hard foods (like ice or hard candy) with your veneers, as this could potentially damage them. With some minor precautions, you’ll be able to enjoy your favorite foods with your new smile.
Caring for porcelain veneers is similar to caring for your natural teeth. Brush twice daily with non-abrasive fluoride toothpaste, floss daily, and visit your dentist regularly for check-ups and cleanings. Avoid using your teeth as tools (like opening packages) and consider wearing a night guard if you grind your teeth.
