Completing a porcelain veneer smile makeover typically requires two to three appointments at our New Westminster clinic. We aim to make this process as smooth and comfortable as possible while ensuring your results are perfectly tailored to your goals.
Here is what you can expect during these visits:
- Consultation and Planning: During your first visit, we listen to your aesthetic goals and evaluate your oral health. We use modern technology, such as digital smile imaging and shade selection, to design a personalized treatment plan that complements your facial features.
- Preparation: Once the plan is set, we gently prepare your teeth by removing a minimal amount of enamel (usually only 0.3 to 0.5 mm). We then take precise digital scans—no goopy impressions required—and fit you with temporary veneers so you can preview your new smile while your custom restorations are being crafted.
- Placement: About one to two weeks later, you will return for the final placement. We fine-tune the shade and shape of your high-grade ceramic veneers before bonding them permanently to your teeth, resulting in a luminous, natural-looking smile.
We care about your smile and provide these services in a judgement free space. If you are ready to begin your transformation, we invite you to Book Appointment with our friendly team today.
