What Are Dental Veneers?
Veneers are essentially thin sheaths of dental porcelain that are placed on the front-facing surface of teeth. This effectively conceals several common imperfections, including noticeable chips, stains, and gaps. Plus, the size, shape, and shade of each veneer is custom-made with your unique dental needs and smile goals in mind. So the final result can be as subtle or dramatic as you’d like!
The Process of Getting Veneers
For patients interested in cosmetic dental treatment with porcelain veneers in Washington, DC, the process is relatively simple. First, we will take 3D images of your teeth and create impressions that will be used by a dental lab to mill your custom veneer. The lab will use the impressions and images to create a veneer for your specific bite, minimizing the amount of necessary tooth preparation. Additionally, the lab will be able to match the natural coloring of your smile to fully integrate the veneers with the remainder of your teeth.
We will then prepare your teeth so that, once the veneer is placed, it does not look larger than the surrounding ones. Finally, once we receive your veneer from our lab, we will adhere it in place using an extremely strong bonding material. We will further customize as necessary to ensure perfect bite alignment. Once the process is completed, you will have a beautiful smile!

Understanding the Cost of Veneers
Although we work with several popular dental insurance providers, including Aetna, Delta, and Cigna, they don’t typically cover veneers. Fortunately, there’s another way to make the cost more affordable: flexible financing. With trusted third-party financiers, like CareCredit, you can break up the total cost of your smile makeover into smaller, monthly chunks that fit within your budget comfortably.
