Overview
Porcelain veneers are a highly aesthetic and effective way to enhance your smile and hide a range of cosmetic concerns. Dental veneers are thin restorations often made of porcelain that are customized to fit over the front of your teeth and improve the cosmetic appeal of your smile. Our team offers customized veneers from our Gainesville, VA practice to help patients overcome chipped, stained, gapped, or slightly crooked teeth for an attractive and balanced smile. Porcelain veneers with our skilled cosmetic dentists can improve the size, shape, color, or length of teeth that show when you smile. To learn if minimally invasive smile repair with porcelain veneers is right for you, get in touch with our friendly team at Atlas Walk Dental & Orthodontic today.

Best Candidates
Cosmetic veneers can be used to mask stained and chipped teeth, worn biting edges, tooth misalignment, and teeth that are misshapen or unevenly spaced. At Atlas Walk Dental & Orthodontics, the Atlas Walk team use their artistic skills to design custom veneers that will fit comfortably over your teeth and deliver a natural, attractive look. During your treatment consultation, our team will listen carefully to your cosmetic goals and preferences for your smile so that we can customize your care. Our team will also evaluate your oral health to determine if cosmetic veneers are the best options to meet your needs. Veneers work best in a healthy environment and may not be ideal for those who habitually clench or grind the teeth (bruxism).
What To Expect
To create your custom veneers, our experienced team will first prepare your teeth by removing a small amount of enamel. This will ensure a comfortable, proper fit for your porcelain veneers. We will then take impressions of your mouth. These impressions will be sent to our elite dental lab, which we partner with to create the highest-quality restorations of the finest porcelain material for our patients. Temporary veneers will be placed on your teeth to maintain function and appearance while your permanent veneers are being crafted. When your porcelain veneers arrive in our office, you will return for a member of the Atlas Walk team to permanently bond your restorations in place. Your porcelain veneers will be adjusted and polished for a comfortable and smooth fit and feel.
Recovery
Following your veneers procedure, you should be able to return to normal activities right away. Your teeth may be a little sensitive to hot and cold temperatures for a few days following veneer placement, but this should subside. Veneers are cleaned and cared for just like your natural teeth, with daily brushing and flossing. Though porcelain veneers are naturally stain resistant, you may still want to avoid consuming foods and drinks that stain to help keep your smile bright. It is also important to avoid chewing on pens, ice, your fingernails, or other hard objects to prevent your porcelain veneers from chipping. To maintain your restorations along with your oral health, you should keep up with regular dental cleanings and exams at Atlas Walk Dental & Orthodontics. Our team will routinely examine your veneers and let you know if any repairs or replacements are needed.
Insurance Coverage
In most cases, veneers are considered to be a cosmetic dental procedure and may not be covered by dental insurance. During your consultation, our team will customize your treatment plan to match your goals and budget. Our team will let you know your personal treatment costs before we begin your veneers procedure. Atlas Walk Dental & Orthodontics accepts a number of payment methods, including patient financing through CareCredit®, to help make getting the care you want for your smile affordable and convenient.
