Porcelain Veneers in Financial District/Lower Manhattan, NY

Porcelain veneers are a minimally invasive cosmetic dentistry option performed to mask aesthetic flaws and reveal a more confident, attractive smile. Crafted of high-quality material, veneers are thin shells of porcelain that fit over the front teeth and are customized to a precise size, length, shape, and color to meet individual goals. At PDA Dental, our elite team of dentists has years of experience in transforming the smiles of New York City patients with custom porcelain veneer solutions. If you are bothered by the appearance of discolored, uneven, and chipped teeth, or other smile imperfections, we welcome you to schedule a cosmetic consultation at our practice located in the Financial District of Lower Manhattan, NY.

Dental veneers are a popular cosmetic dental treatment commonly performed to transform the smile. To achieve proper balance within the aesthetic zone, our team often places veneers in pairs or across the front of the arch. Each veneer is custom-designed to fit over individual teeth comfortably for an attractive, natural-looking result. You may be a good candidate for porcelain veneers if you have:

• Worn or uneven biting edges
• Stained or discolored enamel
• Slightly misaligned or crooked teeth
• Uneven spacing between teeth
• Irregularly shaped teeth

While veneers are a great option for many patients, they function best under healthy conditions and may not be recommended for those who grind or clench their teeth (bruxism). Our skilled dentists can evaluate your needs and help you decide if porcelain veneers or another cosmetic option is ideal for your smile.

Enhancing the smile with custom porcelain veneers is usually accomplished within two visits to our modern dental facility. During your first appointment, our team will prepare your teeth by removing a thin layer of enamel, which allows each veneer to fit comfortably within your smile. An impression will then be taken of your prepared teeth and sent to a professional dental lab for custom veneer fabrication. A set of temporary dental veneers will be placed to maintain the appearance and function of your smile during the 1 – 2 weeks your porcelain veneers are being created. Once your veneers arrive in our office, we will have you return for a second visit to bond them in place. Your cosmetic restorations will be adjusted as needed and polished for a smooth, luxurious finish.

After your porcelain veneers have been placed, you will be free to enjoy your brand new smile. Any sensitivity to hot and cold temperatures experienced following your procedure should subside within a few days. Like natural tooth structure, dental veneers should be well-cared for each day with thorough brushing and flossing techniques. While porcelain veneers carry stain-resistant properties, you may wish to limit your consumption of coffee, tea, tobacco, and similar products to help maintain a brighter, whiter smile. We also suggest avoiding habits, like nail-biting and chewing on pens or ice to minimize the risk of damaging your veneers. Maintaining routine dental exams and cleanings at PDA Dental can help keep your restorations and oral health in the best possible condition.

As a cosmetic dental treatment, porcelain veneers generally are not covered under most dental insurance plans. Nonetheless, our business team will review your benefits and help you select a payment option that best meets your needs and budget.
