Veneers

Misalignment. Cracks. Staining. Do these tooth concerns sound familiar? If so, you've found a treatment that can help with them all: custom veneers from Manhattan Dental Practices.

Let our dentists help you love your smile again, as we have for many patients in Murray Hill, Manhattan, NY.

What Are Veneers? A Discreet Way to Refine Your Smile

A veneer is a thin shell made from durable materials like porcelain or ceramic. This popular cosmetic dentistry treatment can easily be placed over a tooth to conceal dental insecurities, such as inconsistent sizing or deep-set stains.

Intrigued, but worried that dental veneers might look obvious? Our New York dental office relies on lifelike materials, as well as detailed scans from our iTero scanner, to give you the most natural-looking results possible. That way, your new veneers will blend in with the rest of your smile for discreet but effective treatment.

Am I a Candidate for Veneers?

Yes, If You Have Good Oral Health

Like with any other cosmetic dentistry treatment, you'll need to have healthy teeth and gums before exploring veneers. Fortunately, our dentists can help improve the health of your smile with procedures like fillings, TMJ treatment, and root canal therapy before we begin.

Yes, If You Have Non-Structural Concerns

Your teeth must be strong and intact to be eligible for porcelain veneers. For patients with compromised teeth, we offer treatments like dental crowns and dental bridges to keep their smile beautiful and strong.

Yes, If You're Dedicated to Your Results

Our dentists are transparent about what our veneer patients should expect. For instance, they must be careful with their teeth and they must still brush and floss as usual after completing treatment. They'll also need to replace their veneers every decade or so.

Explore Your Eligibility With a Consultation

The only way to know for sure if you're a good candidate for dental veneers is to visit our dentists for a consultation. We'll make sure to assess the health and strength of your smile during your visit.

Then, we'll explain everything you need to know about receiving veneers from our Murray Hill, Manhattan practice, so you can make an informed decision. We can also guide you through other important points, like financing options, treatment time, and the reputable materials that we use.

Wondering What to Expect? We'll Walk You Through the Process

Each veneer treatment begins with a free consultation so that patients can start their journey without any stress.

Dental Consultation

One of our Manhattan-area dentists will assess your smile and ask about the concerns you'd like to treat, like stains or chips. Then, we can go over your options. If you're not a candidate for veneers, we can help you explore other cosmetic dentistry options like Invisalign or orthodontics.

Wax-up Creation

Curious about what your teeth may look like after dental veneers? We can create a wax-up model, which will give you a glimpse of your new smile.

Enamel Preparation

One of the reasons why veneers look so natural is because we lightly shave your tooth or teeth to give your veneer a more precise fit. This process is safe and virtually painless. We may provide you with a temporary set of veneers to protect your enamel as you wait for your permanent veneers.

Tooth Impressions

Once your tooth or teeth have been prepared, we can take impressions with our advanced iTero scanner to send off to our trusted partner lab. It takes about a week for them to create your custom veneers out of high-quality materials.

Veneer Placement

You'll return to our Murray Hill, Manhattan office one last time. We will attach your veneers to your teeth so that they'll stay firmly in place for years to come.

What If I Have

MORE CONCERNS?

While treatments like porcelain veneers can refine several cosmetic insecurities at once, they're only used to refresh your front, flat teeth. For patients with more substantial concerns, our Manhattan office can plan a custom smile makeover. These combine multiple cosmetic dentistry procedures into one care plan, such as orthodontics and teeth whitening.

What If I Don't Qualify for Veneers?

Patients with oral health concerns (such as tooth decay) may not initially qualify for cosmetic treatments like veneers. However, we offer comprehensive dental treatments to help you achieve a healthy and functional smile. Many restorative treatments like dental crowns, inlays, and onlays can improve the look, health, and function of your smile.

During your initial consultation, your dentist will evaluate your smile and discuss your goals to help determine the best treatment options to help you achieve a healthy, functional, and beautiful smile.

Explore Frequently Asked Questions About Veneers in Manhattan

How long do dental veneers last?

Veneers are made from high-quality porcelain and can last for up to 15 years or more with proper care and maintenance. Please keep in mind that once a tooth is altered by removing the enamel, some sort of restoration will always be required to protect the tooth structure. 

Does veneer placement hurt?

No. Veneer placement is a practically painless dental procedure, as only a small amount of enamel needs to be removed. If you have particularly sensitive teeth, your dentist can numb the area to ensure you are completely comfortable. 

Is there a limit to how many porcelain veneers I can have placed?

There is no limit as long as the tooth is healthy. However, it is important to remember that veneers are best suited for front teeth. If you have a back tooth that needs restoring, a dental crown may be more appropriate as it is designed to withstand the bite force exerted on those teeth. 

Will anyone be able to tell I have veneers?

We strive to create life-like restorations that blend seamlessly with your smile. We have a skilled lab tech who comes into our office to shade match and ensure the most natural veneers possible.
