At Carmel Mountain Ranch Dental Care, both Dr. Carpenter & Dr. Collado are experienced cosmetic dentists, with years of experience applying porcelain veneers.
Porcelain veneers are a durable, long-lasting cosmetic dentistry treatment that can restore your smile and correct aesthetic issues such as severe tooth stains, misshapen or chipped teeth, and gapped or slightly crooked teeth. If you’re interested in restoring your smile and your confidence, veneers from one of our dentists may be the right choice for you.

The Basics About Porcelain Veneers
Porcelain veneers consist of one or more small, thin tooth-shaped dental prostheses. Veneers are sculpted to fit perfectly over your existing teeth, and to cover up the exterior chewing surface. By covering up imperfections in your smile, they can treat most aesthetic issues, and provide you with a smile that’s bright, beautiful, and stain-resistant.
Veneers are a cosmetic treatment, not a restorative treatment. They are only used for patients who have reasonably good levels of oral health, and are not recommended for seriously-damaged teeth.
The Porcelain Veneer Placement Process
After Dr. Carpenter has confirmed that you are a good candidate for veneers, it typically takes just two appointments to have your veneers built and placed. At your first appointment, your teeth will be cleaned and prepared for veneers by removing an extremely thin layer of enamel. This layer of enamel is equal to the thickness of your final veneer, in order to ensure that the veneers fit seamlessly when they’re applied to your teeth.
Images and impressions are then taken of your teeth and sent to a third-party lab, where your custom veneers are manufactured. At your final appointment, Dr. Carpenter will check your veneers for fit and finish, and make sure they’re perfect. To finish the procedure, the veneers will be bonded in place using dental cement, and then buffed and polished for a bright shine. You’ll leave our office with a confident, beautiful smile.
The Benefits Of Porcelain Veneers
- Non-invasive – No dental surgery is required, and the preparation of your teeth for veneers typically results in minimal discomfort.
- Fast, long-lasting results – You can restore your smile completely in just 3 weeks, and enjoy a better, brighter smile for decades to come.
- Natural look and feel – Your teeth will look completely natural, and your veneers will match the rest of your smile. Veneers also feel just like real teeth, and all you have to do to care for them properly is brush and floss regularly.
