How Do Porcelain Veneers Work?

Your custom veneer treatment will begin with Dr. Taylor taking impressions of your teeth at our office. Your porcelain veneers might be made in-house while you wait, or your impressions may be sent to a dental laboratory, where your veneers will be made out of high-quality porcelain material. When your veneers are ready, Dr. Taylor will carefully take off a little bit of enamel from your teeth. This both allows room for the porcelain veneers and improves the bond for a more natural outcome that lasts longer. Once your porcelain veneers are bonded, Dr. Taylor may make small adjustments so that your veneers fit well.

I have always had a fear of the dentist and never liked going. I have been to a lot of dental offices but none like Dr. Taylor’s. His staff is absolutely wonderful. They all make you feel so comfortable and they care. Taylor worked on 2 cavities and made sure I was totally taken care of the entire process. Dr. Taylor was quick, efficient but also gentle and reassuring. Taylor talked me through the entire process and made sure I knew what was going on. 100/10 recommend this office if you are looking for a dentist.

Every time I visit Dr Taylor's office I have an fantastic experience (especially from Jennifer, Kim and Tracy). The staff is always welcoming and professional. The waiting area is always clean, modern, and comfortable. Tracy the hygienist who did my cleaning was thorough yet gentle and she took the time to explain every step of the process. Dr Taylor was equally impressive, giving me a detailed examination and answering all my questions in a way that was easy to understand. I appreciated that they didn't try to push unnecessary procedures but focused on what I genuinely needed. The entire appointment was smooth, efficient, and pain free. They use the latest equipment, which made me feel confident I was getting the best care possible. Whether you're nervous about dental work or just looking for a new dentist, I highly recommend Dr Taylor's office. I drive three hour round trips and will be returning for all my future appointments!

I have had dental anxiety since my early teen years due to an accident that caused dental trauma, and I have been to my fair share of dental offices because of this. No office has ever compared to Dr. Taylor and his staff. Everyone at this office is so kind and genuine; The front desk always greets you with a smile, the hygienists are kind and patient, and the Dr. himself is great! It feels like everyone there really cares for you, they make sure you are comfortable and they are very patient & understanding. Dr. Taylor himself has made every procedure I’ve ever had very quick and painless, and I cannot recommend this office enough.

How long do porcelain veneers last?

Are porcelain veneers a painful procedure?

The process of getting porcelain veneers is generally not painful. Most patients experience minimal discomfort. Local anesthesia can be used during the procedure to ensure comfort. Afterward, there might be slight sensitivity, but it typically subsides quickly.

Can porcelain veneers be a good option for everyone?

Porcelain veneers are a versatile solution, but they might not be suitable for everyone. Ideal candidates for porcelain veneers have healthy teeth and gums. Issues like severe tooth decay, gum disease, or insufficient enamel can affect the viability of porcelain veneers.
