Getting porcelain veneers typically involves several steps, including an initial consultation, digital smile design, a trial smile, tooth preparation, and custom fabrication of the veneers.

Once ready, the veneers are bonded to your teeth and adjusted for a natural look and comfortable fit. The process usually takes a few visits over several weeks. Learn more about the veneer process here.
