What Are Porcelain Veneers?
Porcelain veneers are thin, tooth-colored shells that are meticulously crafted to bond to the front of your teeth. Made from premium dental porcelain, they mimic the natural translucency and shine of tooth enamel, offering a seamless, aesthetically pleasing result. At PGA Dentistry, we use only the finest materials and partner with top-tier cosmetic ceramics labs to ensure your veneers are durable, stain-resistant, and perfectly tailored to your smile.
Veneers address a wide range of cosmetic dental concerns, including:
- Discoloration or staining that doesn’t respond to whitening
- Chipped or cracked teeth
- Gaps between teeth
- Misaligned or uneven teeth
- Worn-down teeth

Factors that Affect Veneer Candidacy
-
Overall Oral Health
Before getting porcelain veneers, you need to be in good oral health. If you have gum disease or other oral health problems, you may not be a good candidate for this treatment. We recommend addressing any oral health concerns before undergoing a veneer treatment.
Good candidates should have:- No active tooth decay or gum disease
- Sufficient tooth enamel for veneer bonding
- Healthy gums to support the treatment
-
Tooth Structure
Your teeth must have enough structure to support the veneers. If you have severely damaged or broken teeth, you may need to consider other treatments, such as dental crowns or dental implants. You also need to have an adequate amount of tooth enamel to support the veneers.
-
Teeth Grinding
If you grind your teeth, you may not be a good candidate for porcelain veneers. Grinding can damage the veneers and cause them to break or become dislodged.
-
Bite Alignment
If you have a misaligned bite, you may not be a good candidate for porcelain veneers. Veneers can change the shape and size of your teeth, but they cannot correct issues with your bite.
How Long Do Porcelain Veneers Last?
Porcelain veneers can last anywhere from 10 to 20 years, depending on the individual case. With proper care and maintenance, some porcelain veneers can even last up to 25 years. However, the lifespan of porcelain veneers can vary from person to person and from case to case. Some people may need to replace their porcelain veneers sooner than others due to various factors.
Porcelain Veneer Alternatives
If porcelain veneers aren’t the right cosmetic dentistry treatment for you, our dentist offers the following porcelain veneer alternatives:
- Dental crowns
- Teeth whitening
- Orthodontic treatment, such as clear aligners
- Lumineers
Frequently Asked Questions
-
Is it possible to replace or repair porcelain veneers if they become damaged?
Yes, in most cases, damaged porcelain veneers can be replaced or repaired. However, the extent of the damage will determine the appropriate course of action. Minor chips or cracks can often be repaired, while extensive damage may require replacing the veneer altogether.
-
Can veneers fix crooked teeth?
Yes, for minor misalignment, veneers can create the appearance of straighter teeth without braces.
