Whether it's one chipped tooth or a full smile makeover, Dental Veneers in Mantua starts with a design conversation, not a drill. Smile Center Dentistry previews your result digitally before any enamel is touched.
A rushed veneer case is how patients end up with a smile that doesn't match their face. We'd rather spend extra time on the mockup stage than redo a finished case.
You'll see a mockup of your projected smile before we prep a single tooth, so there are no surprises. Adjustments at the mockup stage cost nothing; changes after fabrication are a different story.
Not every case needs aggressive tooth reduction — we explain what your specific teeth actually require. We default to the most conservative prep that still achieves your desired result.
We walk through the durability, cost, and appearance trade-offs between porcelain and composite before you choose. Neither material is universally 'better' — the right choice depends on your goals and budget.
If a veneer doesn't fit or match shade correctly, we adjust or remake it within the guarantee period. We'd rather remake one veneer than have you live with a mismatch.
Not every smile concern needs the same veneer approach — here's what we offer after your design consult.
Custom-shaded in a dental lab to match — or intentionally brighten — your natural smile. Typically requires two visits: prep and impressions, then bonding.
A tooth-colored resin is sculpted directly onto your teeth, often completed in a single visit. We explain the shorter lifespan honestly compared to porcelain.
We use digital imaging to preview your projected smile shape and shade before any prep work begins. Nothing is finalized until you approve the design.
We match a single veneer carefully to your surrounding natural teeth so it doesn't stand out. Ideal for isolated damage rather than an overall smile makeover.
For patients addressing multiple teeth at once, we plan shape, shade, and symmetry across the full arch. We stage complex cases in phases when that better serves the outcome.
For minor chips or gaps, cosmetic bonding can sometimes achieve a similar look without committing to a veneer. Not every cosmetic concern needs the more involved veneer procedure.
We ask what you'd like to change about your smile when you book, so the consult is focused.
You approve shape and shade before any tooth preparation happens.
Temporary veneers are placed while your custom ones are fabricated.
Your finished veneers are bonded and checked for fit, bite, and shade match.
"The digital mockup let me request a slightly different shape before they touched my teeth. Ended up exactly how I pictured it."
"Single veneer to fix a chipped front tooth — matched my other teeth so well you genuinely can't tell."
"Full smile makeover took a few visits but they staged it so I wasn't without teeth at any point."
"They adjusted the shade twice until it matched exactly what I wanted, no extra charge."
"Asked about bonding first since I only had one chipped tooth and they said it would work fine — saved me money over a full veneer."
Porcelain veneers typically last 10 to 15 years with proper care; composite usually needs replacement sooner, around 5 to 7 years. We'll recommend the material likely to hold up best for your specific habits.
Tooth preparation is done with local anesthesia when needed, and most patients report minimal discomfort. We check comfort throughout the procedure rather than assuming it's fine.
Yes — our digital smile design mockup shows your projected result before any prep work begins. This step exists specifically so nothing is a surprise once we start.
We walk through both honestly so you choose based on your budget and timeline, not upselling. Composite can be touched up over time; porcelain generally can't be repaired the same way.
Composite veneers can sometimes be applied with little to no enamel removal at all. Enamel removed for veneers doesn't grow back, which is why we're careful about how much we take.
We break down per-tooth cost clearly so you can decide how many veneers fit your budget. We'd rather you understand the full cost before starting than be surprised partway through.
