What are Veneers?
Veneers are ultra-thin shells crafted to fit the front surface of your teeth. Think of them as little masks for your teeth, designed to recreate a natural look while masking stains, chips, or misalignments. Beyond just a cosmetic enhancement, veneers can be the boost of confidence you've been seeking.
Why Choose Veneers?
While there are various cosmetic dentistry solutions available, veneers are often the top pick for many reasons:
- Instant Transformation: Unlike orthodontic treatments, which can take months or years, veneers can give you a smile makeover in just a couple of visits.
- Durability: With proper care, veneers can last for a long time, offering value for the investment.
- Natural Look: Custom-made to match your existing teeth, veneers blend seamlessly to provide a genuine smile.
Veneers Address Many Common Dental Concerns
Do any of these sound familiar? You may be a candidate for veneers if you experience:
- Discoloration resistant to whitening
- Chipped or broken teeth
- Gaps or misalignments
- Uneven or irregularly shaped teeth

The Two Paths: Prep and No-Prep Veneers
Depending on your treatment needs and preferences, we offer the following options:
- Prep Veneers: This process involves removing a tiny amount of your original tooth enamel to ensure the veneer fits perfectly. It ensures longevity and a seamless fit but is an irreversible procedure.
- No-Prep Veneers: As the name suggests, no preparation of the original tooth is needed. They are simply bonded atop your natural teeth. They're a quicker and less invasive option.

Frequently Asked
Questions
How long do veneers last?
With proper care, porcelain veneers can last up to 15 years or longer. Composite veneers might need replacement sooner, typically after 5-7 years.
Are veneers right for me?
A consultation at Marietta Roswell Dental Care will help determine if veneers are the best solution for your dental concerns and aesthetic goals.
Can veneers stain?
Porcelain veneers are highly stain-resistant, while composite veneers might be slightly more susceptible to discoloration. Proper dental hygiene and avoiding stain-causing foods and beverages can help maintain their brilliance.
What's the cost of veneers?
The cost can vary depending on the type of veneer and individual dental needs. We offer various financing options and will work with you to ensure your dream smile becomes a reality.
Are there any risks associated with veneers?
Veneers are a safe dental procedure. Some patients might experience increased sensitivity immediately after the procedure, but this typically subsides soon.
How do I care for my veneers?
While veneers are durable, it's essential to maintain good oral hygiene practices, including regular brushing, flossing, and routine dental check-ups, to ensure their longevity.
Is the veneer procedure painful?
Most patients experience minimal discomfort. Local anesthesia can be used to numb the area during the procedure, and we prioritize your comfort at every step.
How many appointments will I need for veneers?
Typically, veneers require two appointments after your initial consultation. The first is for preparation and impression-taking, and the second is for veneer placement. However, some types of veneers, like composite, may be completed in just one visit.
Can I get veneers if I have gum disease?
It's crucial to treat any active gum disease before considering veneers. Healthy gums are essential for the success and longevity of your veneers.
Can veneers be removed or replaced?
Yes, veneers can be replaced if they become damaged or if you desire an updated look. The process depends on the type of veneer initially chosen and the condition of the underlying tooth.
Will my veneers look natural?
Absolutely! One of the primary advantages of veneers is their natural appearance. They are custom-designed to fit your mouth and match the color of your surrounding teeth.
How do veneers differ from dental crowns or bonding?
While veneers cover only the front surface of a tooth, dental crowns encase the entire tooth. Bonding, on the other hand, involves applying a resin material directly to the tooth's surface without the use of a custom-made shell.
Are there any dietary restrictions with veneers?
While veneers are robust, it's best to avoid biting into very hard foods or objects to prevent potential chipping. However, with proper care, you can enjoy most of your favorite foods without worry.
How soon after getting veneers can I eat and drink?
You can eat and drink immediately after getting veneers. However, if local anesthesia was used, it's wise to wait until the numbness wears off to prevent potential injury from biting your cheek or tongue.
