Porcelain Veneers Process

Porcelain veneers are ultra-thin shells of porcelain placed over existing teeth to correct minor aesthetic issues. The use of porcelain veneers is increasing popular due not only to the superior quality and long lasting beauty of porcelain, but due also to the very simple process involved in the procedure.

First Office Visit

During your first visit, Dr. Goldman or Dr. Yenzer will:

• Gently reshape your teeth to prepare them for you customized veneers
• Make an impression of your teeth for your personalized veneers to be created from
• Fit you with temporary veneers to wear until your second visit

Between Visits

Between your first and second visit, while you are wearing your temporary veneers, the technicians at May Dental Arts will be busy creating a beautiful set of porcelain veneers based on the impression made by our dentists. Using advanced computer technology and high quality porcelain, your veneers will be created and sent back to our office for your final visit.

Second Office Visit

After your veneers have been created, you will return to our office for your second visit. During this visit, your temporary veneers will be removed, and you will be fitted with your new, customized porcelain veneers. As simple as that, in two short visits, your smile will be remarkably brighter, straighter, and free of imperfections.
