What Are Porcelain Veneers?
Chipped, Cracked, or Misshapen Teeth
Misshapen teeth or teeth with imperfections such as cracks or chips can be enhanced with veneers as long as the teeth and gums are healthy.
Stained Teeth
Discolored teeth may not always respond to whitening treatment, especially if the stains are deep. Veneers cover the discoloration and give you a brightened smile.
Misaligned Teeth
Minor misalignments and gaps can be addressed with porcelain veneers, giving your smile a straighter appearance.

Let’s take a step-by-step look at the treatment process:
Veneers are a longer-lasting cosmetic dentistry solution than whitening treatments and dental bonding.
Unsure if Dental Veneers Are the Right Choice?
Bonding May Be Ideal for You
Your dentist can always craft a single veneer to address minor imperfections, but another cosmetic dentistry option may be a better fit. With dental bonding, a small amount of tooth-colored resin is applied to the tooth to conceal cracks, chips, or discoloration.
While dental bonding isn't as effective or long-lasting as veneers, it is faster and less expensive. Get in touch with us to determine whether dental bonding or veneers is best for your goals.
Frequently Asked Questions
What are veneers made of?
We craft our veneers using high-quality, medical-grade porcelain, zirconia, and chromium cobalt instead of resins. Using these high-quality materials ensures your veneers will have a natural-looking gloss and be stain-resistant. They will also be durable so you can enjoy your smile for years.
How are veneers made?
At Dental Associates of New England, we use a high-end lab that employs skilled ceramicists who are Japanese-trained. These experts are some of the best, crafting high-quality and natural-looking veneers to give our patients stunning results.
Do veneers hurt?
Veneers are minimally invasive, and most patients do not experience any discomfort during placement. Only a thin layer of enamel is removed, and there is no downtime or recovery with veneers. However, if you experience any pain, please let your dentist know so they can ensure your comfort and address the issue. If you have concerns about pain or are anxious just visiting a dental office, let us calm your fears. We also offer sedation dentistry so you can get the smile you want, without anxiety.
Is there a limit to how many veneers I can get?
During your initial consult, your dentist will discuss your cosmetic goals and examine your teeth. Veneers are typically used on the front teeth, and your teeth must be healthy enough to support the veneers. However, our dentists at our Boston, MA, dentistry practice are skilled in multiple areas of cosmetic dentistry and can help you find the right treatment should veneers not work for all your concerns.
