You'll probably see a few things these days in the media about what are called no-prep veneers. Not a big fan of those in most instances. There are some people that can benefit greatly. But on the average person, there needs to be a little preparation, or you end up with teeth that are as thick as Chiclets. A veneer is a porcelain cover, a porcelain layer, that is cemented long term. I don't like the word “permanent,” but for long-term use, on the outer face of a tooth. You can cover discoloration. You can cover a misshapen tooth. You can cover an overly short tooth. They're just a really nice way to gain a truly aesthetic smile.

Our Veneers Treatment Can Give You Just the Look You Want
Dr. Jude believes that dental veneers should look natural and be biocompatible, so for many of our patients, we use the IPS e.max family of veneers. They are super thin yet strong, plus they closely resemble natural teeth in terms of shading and translucency. No one will be able to tell that they’re not your original teeth.
Your veneers treatment will begin with an exam and X-rays. Then we will discuss your veneers options in detail, helping you decide on the exact shade and shape for each of your veneers. We can use digital imaging or a wax-up to show you what your new smile will look like after your treatment is complete.
Depending on your circumstances and the type of veneers we use for your treatment, we may need to remove a small amount of tooth enamel. Afterward, we’ll take impressions of your teeth so that our lab partner can craft your new teeth veneers.
After your veneers are ready, you’ll return to our office to have them fitted. Dr. Jude will carefully bond each one into place and make any final adjustments needed so that they fit perfectly and deliver you the beautiful smile you’re looking for.
