Mesa Porcelain Veneers

If you have gaps between your teeth, teeth that are stained, badly shaped, crooked, severely damaged, or severely broken down, you can achieve a beautiful smile simply and quickly with porcelain veneers.

Porcelain veneers are thin shells of ceramic that bond directly to the front surfaces of the teeth. When bonded to the teeth, the ultra-thin porcelain veneers are virtually undetectable and highly resistant to coffee, tea, or even cigarette stains. Their resemblance to healthy, white tooth enamel is unsurpassed by other restorative options.

Mountain View Family Dentistry uses only the highest grade porcelain for your veneers. You will be ready to show off your new smile after only 2 visits, and with proper care, your smile will continue to be amazing for well over a decade.

Dr. Guffey is experienced in the placement of these amazing applications.

A specific type of porcelain veneer is the especially thin Lumineers brand.

Veneers have a few advantages over crowns—much less tooth material is removed and the procedure is generally less uncomfortable. From the front, however, their appearance is nearly identical to crowns.

The Porcelain Veneer Process

Dr. Guffey will first have a consult appointment with you to answer any questions you may have regarding the different options that are available today for veneers. He then begins to design your procedure based on your facial characteristics and the look you want to project.

He will then gather some diagnostic information, photographs and models of your current smile to aid him in making sure your veneers fit in perfectly with the rest of your teeth.

On the next appointment, Dr. Guffey will make the necessary changes to your existing teeth to allow for the final porcelain to fit perfectly. An impression is taken so that the ceramist can create your custom porcelain veneers, and Mountain View Family Dentistry will fabricate your temporary veneers. These temporary veneers will give you a preview of your new smile.

Once your permanent veneers are completed by the ceramist, Dr. Guffey will be ready to try them in.

Before the veneers are bonded into place, he will verify that they look gorgeous, fit perfectly, and most important, you love them. Once everything is ideal, he bonds the porcelain veneers into place and your new smile is complete and ready to be displayed to the world.
