What Are Feldspathic Porcelain Veneers?
Feldspathic porcelain veneers are thin shells of high-quality porcelain bonded to the front surfaces of your teeth. These custom-made dental veneers can improve the appearance of your teeth, giving them a more even, white, and symmetrical look. They’re often chosen for their ability to mimic natural teeth in both appearance and function, making them one of the most popular choices in cosmetic dentistry.
Benefits of Feldspathic Veneers
-
Natural Appearance
Feldspathic porcelain is known for its ability to reflect light in a similar way to natural tooth enamel. This allows your veneers to look completely natural and blend seamlessly with the rest of your teeth.
-
Durability
Although thin, Feldspathic porcelain is incredibly strong. These veneers are resistant to staining, chipping, and cracking, making them a long-lasting solution for smile enhancement.
-
Customization
Each veneer is custom-designed to fit your unique smile. From the size and shape to the color and texture, everything is tailored to meet your aesthetic goals.
-
Minimal Tooth Reduction
Unlike some other dental veneers, Feldspathic porcelain veneers require very little tooth reduction. This makes the procedure minimally invasive and preserves much of your natural tooth structure.
-
Non-Invasive Treatment
With no need for extensive tooth preparation or the use of metal, Feldspathic porcelain veneers are a conservative and non-invasive way to achieve a smile that you’ll love.
How Feldspathic Veneers Are Placed
When receiving these veneers, our cosmetic dentist will do the following:
- Initial Consultation: During your initial consultation, our Palm Beach cosmetic dentist will examine your teeth and discuss your aesthetic goals. We’ll also take digital X-rays and impressions to ensure the best fit for your veneers.
- Treatment Planning: Based on your needs and goals, Dr. Ajmo will create a personalized treatment plan.
- Tooth Preparation: A small amount of tooth enamel will be gently removed from the front surface of your teeth to make space for the veneers. This step is typically minimally invasive.
- Custom Fabrication of Veneers: Once your teeth are prepared, we’ll take impressions and send them to our trusted dental lab, where skilled technicians will craft your custom Feldspathic porcelain veneers.
- Veneer Bonding: Once your permanent porcelain veneers are ready, Dr. Ajmo will bond them to your teeth using a strong adhesive. He’ll carefully place and adjust them to ensure the perfect fit and alignment. Finally, the permanent veneers will be polished to give them a natural shine.
- Follow-up Appointments: After your veneers are in place, we’ll schedule follow-up appointments to ensure that everything is perfect and to address any concerns you may have.

Are You a Candidate for Feldspathic Porcelain Veneers?
Feldspathic porcelain veneers are an excellent solution for many patients seeking to improve the appearance of their smile. Good candidates possess the following:
- Healthy Teeth and Gums: To ensure the longevity and success of your porcelain veneers, your teeth and gums must be healthy. Any existing dental issues, such as cavities or gum disease, should be addressed before receiving veneers.
- Good Oral Hygiene Habits: While porcelain veneers are resistant to stains, you must maintain good oral hygiene. Brushing and flossing regularly will help keep your natural teeth and veneers in the best condition possible.
- Desire for Cosmetic Improvement: Feldspathic veneers are ideal for patients looking to enhance the aesthetic appearance of their smile. Whether you have gaps between your teeth, teeth that are worn or chipped, or teeth that are stained and resistant to whitening, veneers can be used to correct these issues and give you a more symmetrical and youthful smile.
- Adequate Tooth Structure: Since a small amount of enamel is removed during the placement of porcelain veneers, candidates should have enough natural tooth structure to support the procedure. If your teeth are too worn down or damaged, we may recommend alternative treatments like dental crowns or bonding.
- No Bruxism (Teeth Grinding): If you suffer from bruxism, or teeth grinding, you need to address this issue before getting veneers. Grinding can place undue stress on the porcelain, potentially leading to damage or premature wear.
- Realistic Expectations: Feldspathic veneers can drastically improve the appearance of your smile, but they cannot solve every dental issue. Set realistic expectations about the outcome.

How Our Dentist Assesses Your Candidacy
During your consultation at PGA Dentistry, Dr. Ajmo will take the time to thoroughly assess your teeth, gums, and overall oral health. This includes:
- A visual examination of your teeth to check for existing issues such as cavities or misalignment
- Digital X-rays to evaluate the condition of your tooth roots and jawbone
- A discussion of your cosmetic goals and any concerns you may have
- A review of your medical and dental history to ensure there are no underlying conditions that could affect your veneers
