What Are Dental Veneers?
A veneer is a thin shell that is the color of tooth enamel. When placed over the front-facing surfaces of your teeth, veneers can instantly conceal a wide variety of cosmetic imperfections, such as:
- Cracked or chipped enamel
- Disproportionately small or irregularly shaped teeth
- Slightly crooked or rotated teeth
- Deep-set stains or discoloration
- Small gaps between teeth
While dental veneers are typically made of porcelain and require an outside lab technician to create these restorations – resulting in at least two appointments for you to maintain – 3D printed resin veneers are different. These are crafted from an advanced, dental-grade resin and fully produced in-house, so you can expect significantly faster results and a much more affordable cosmetic solution.
The Process of Getting Veneers
The first step is to meet with Dr. Parry for a scheduled consultation. You will discuss what you hope to achieve by receiving veneers, and we will develop a personalized treatment plan for you to review. If you agree with our approach, we will begin to move forward. Generally, with porcelain dental veneers, the process takes two appointments.
During this initial visit, we’ll begin to prepare your teeth by removing a small bit of enamel so your veneers will not appear bulky once they are put in place. We’ll then take impressions of your teeth using digital imaging. If you choose regular veneers, this 3D image will be sent to a laboratory for technicians to use during the fabrication process. However, if you prefer a faster solution, Dr. Parry can use our 3D printed resin veneers and create them in-house.
This high-grade dental resin produces lifelike results and is typically more affordable than traditional veneers. Also, you won’t have to wait 2-3 weeks before receiving your final set of veneers, as in-house restorations are crafted much quicker.
The Benefits of Veneers
Here are just a few of the numerous advantages of veneers:
- Seamlessly Lifelike: Each veneer is personalized to resemble a natural part of your smile.
- Conservative Treatment: Compared to dental crowns, which cover the entire portion of the tooth above the gums, veneers only conceal the front surface. This requires less enamel removal, making veneers a more conservative treatment.
- Long-Lasting Results: Veneers are durable enough to last about 10-15 years on average before they need to be replaced.
Understanding the Cost of Veneers
It isn’t any secret that veneers come with a large price tag, but they are more affordable than many people realize. Their versatility allows them to correct several issues at once to prevent needing multiple procedures. As a result, they might be the most cost-effective option. Don’t let the cost of veneers in Summerfield stop you from getting a picture-perfect smile. We’ll create a personalized estimate and discuss your payment options to keep your dream smile within your budget.
Cost VS Cosmetic Dentistry: What's Right for Me?
Advancements in dentistry provide more services than ever to resolve common aesthetic complaints, like discoloration or gaps between teeth. While traditional methods are still used, you have modern treatments available as well. It’s important to consider all your options when deciding if veneers in Summerfield are worth the investment, such as:
- Braces: Braces are a tried-and-proven solution to treat even the most complex bite and alignment problems. New developments in dentistry have made orthodontic systems less noticeable and quicker; however, you can still expect the process to take 12-24 months.
- Teeth Whitening: Whitening gels are specially formulated to deeply penetrate the enamel to fade stains and discoloration. You can get your teeth up to 8 shades whiter. While you’ll enjoy lasting results with the right aftercare, you’ll likely need a touch-up kit down the road.
- Direct Bonding: Dental bonding can fix a multitude of issues quickly. The convenient and affordable treatment can resolve chips, cracks, and more; however, it will eventually need to be replaced.
- Veneers: A veneer covers the entire front surface of a tooth to instantly enhance its color, size, and shape. It can hide several issues at once while providing long-term results. With proper care, veneers can last for a decade or longer to enjoy a flawless smile for many years.
Your cosmetic dentist in Summerfield, Dr. Parry, will examine your smile and learn more about your goals to create a personalized strategy to transform your teeth. He will explain all your options and the costs associated with each one to find the ideal solution for your needs and bank account.
You’ll know exactly what you’ll need to pay before committing to any treatment. You won’t be caught off guard by any hidden fees to feel confident in the decision you’re making for your smile.

Veneers FAQs
Are Veneers Permanent?
Technically speaking, veneers are not permanent since they will eventually have to be replaced. However, a small portion of enamel is removed to make room for veneers. Since enamel does not grow back, this makes treatment irreversible. Once your teeth have been prepared, they will always need to be covered with crowns or veneers.
How Are Veneers Different Than Crowns?
Veneers are designed to attach to the front of teeth to conceal dental imperfections. In contrast, crowns are shaped to cover an entire tooth and are roughly twice as thick as veneers. That extra thickness helps crowns to protect worn or cracked teeth or restore a tooth after a root canal. Instead of restoring damaged teeth, veneers are primarily a cosmetic treatment that can rejuvenate the appearance of a person’s smile. In general, veneers require much less enamel removal to place and don’t show a gum margin after several years the way crowns often do.
Is There Anything I Can’t Eat with Veneers?
While wearing temporary veneers, you should avoid hard foods like candy, raw fruits and vegetables, and ice, as they could break the restoration. In addition, beware of sticky foods like caramel or toffee that could pull the veneers off your teeth.
Once your permanent veneers are in place, you will be able to enjoy most of your favorite foods again without worry. However, you’ll still want to avoid extremely hard or crunchy foods.
In addition, although permanent veneers are more stain-resistant than natural teeth, drinking excessive amounts of coffee can still darken them over time. Finally, if your teeth are sensitive for a few days after getting veneers, avoid consuming hot or cold foods and drinks.
Can Veneers Widen My Smile?
Research has shown that wider smiles are considered more attractive because the asymmetrical teeth are more balanced. “Narrow smiles,” on the other hand, are more likely to hide teeth. If you want to widen your smile, veneers from a cosmetic dentist in Summerfield are one of the quickest ways to do so. When in place, veneers can make teeth look fuller than they actually are. If you need a more extensive change, you may be better off getting braces to widen your smile.
Is There Anyone Who Shouldn’t Get Veneers?
While veneers are an excellent cosmetic solution for many people, not everyone is a good candidate. For instance, you should not get a veneer placed on a tooth that has a cavity. The tooth decay can grow worse underneath the veneer and become more difficult to treat.
Gum disease can also interfere with the veneer process. Infected gums often swell and bleed, which can make it difficult to obtain the impressions needed to craft custom veneers. Gum disease can also lead to receding gums, which would reveal the margin of the veneers.
Finally, if you grind your teeth at night (also known as bruxism), you may not be a good candidate for veneers. A 2017 study published by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) website found there was a higher rate of veneers debonding (falling off) in bruxism patients.
