Porcelain Veneers in Miami, FL

Porcelain veneers typically last 15 to 20 years with proper care. Their longevity depends on your oral hygiene habits, diet, and avoiding habits like nail-biting or chewing on hard objects. Regular dental check-ups every 6 months help us monitor the veneers and ensure they remain in excellent condition.

The procedure is performed under local anesthesia, so you should feel little to no discomfort during treatment. Some patients experience mild sensitivity for a few days after placement, which subsides quickly. We take every step to ensure your comfort throughout the process.

Care for veneers just like natural teeth: brush twice daily with a non-abrasive toothpaste, floss daily, and attend regular dental cleanings. Avoid biting on hard foods like ice or using your teeth as tools. We also recommend a nightguard if you grind your teeth during sleep.

Ideal candidates have healthy teeth and gums, with cosmetic concerns like discoloration, chips, minor misalignment, or gaps. Patients with severe decay, gum disease, or significant tooth-grinding may need to address those issues first. A consultation with our dental team will determine the best approach for your smile goals.

The number of veneers depends on your smile goals and which teeth are visible when you smile. Many patients choose 6 to 8 veneers to cover the most visible teeth, while others opt for a full smile makeover with 10 to 12 veneers. We customize each treatment plan during your consultation.
