How Veneers Work

Veneers are very thin, custom built veneers that can be installed onto your teeth in just two dental visits. There is no drilling into the tooth structure involved and no shots to take! The entire process is painless and hassle-free, and is also completely reversible. They are designed to last for more than 20 years, providing our patients with movie star-quality smiles for a good part of their lifetime!

Veneers are a type of porcelain veneer that can be bonded directly to the tooth. They are often called “no prep” or minimal prep veneers because we do not need to remove a lot of enamel or shave down tooth structure. Dr. Yu can apply the veneer to the teeth without painful shots, and most patients experience little or no discomfort during the procedure.

If you are a candidate for veneers, Dr. Yu will make dental impressions of your mouth so that your veneers can be made in a lab. You will return to our office for the final placement, and Dr. Yu may use an etching liquid to create a rough surface on the teeth before bonding the veneer to the tooth with a high-intensity light.

  • The procedure involves minimal discomfort and pain.
  • Applying Lumineers does not require extensive tooth structure removal.
