Before any enamel is touched, we build a digital smile design mockup so you can see roughly what your new smile will look like — and change your mind if it's not right.
These are the four things patients actually ask about before booking Dental Veneers, not a generic checklist we copied from another service page.
The mockup lets us adjust shape, length, and shade together before committing to the final design.
We preserve as much natural enamel as the case allows, rather than defaulting to aggressive tooth reduction.
Material choice is discussed openly, including cost differences, rather than defaulting to the most expensive option.
The full veneer case, including the mockup and any needed prep visits, is quoted as one package before starting.
Here's the range of Dental Veneers our Crown Heights team handles most, described the way we'd explain it chairside rather than in marketing language.
This is the visit where you get final say on the design direction before any prep work happens. Bring reference photos if you have a specific look in mind — it helps the design process.
Fabrication is done from a digital impression and fitted over two visits with a temporary in between. Porcelain tends to be the better long-term investment for a full smile redesign.
Composite veneers are sculpted directly onto the tooth in a single visit, at a lower cost than porcelain. It's a reasonable starting point if you're not ready to commit to porcelain yet.
When enamel and tooth position allow, we use minimal or no-prep techniques that preserve nearly all of your natural tooth. Ask specifically whether your case is a minimal-prep candidate during the mockup visit.
We match shade and shape carefully so the repaired tooth blends with the teeth around it. This is usually the fastest and most affordable veneer case type.
We'll suggest bonding first when it's genuinely sufficient, rather than upselling to veneers by default. Ask us directly whether your case needs veneers or if bonding would do the job.
No mystery about what happens between calling us and walking out with the problem addressed.
A quick call gets your consultation and photos scheduled.
See your projected new smile on-screen and request adjustments before committing to prep work.
Preparation, when needed, is minimal and guided by the approved design.
We confirm the result matches the approved mockup before you leave.
These are unedited, from patients who've actually been through Dental Veneers treatment with us in the past year.
“Seeing the mockup before anything happened to my teeth made this so much less nerve-wracking than I expected.”
“They talked me out of veneers on two teeth and suggested bonding instead, which saved me a decent amount of money.”
“Porcelain veneers matched my other teeth so well that people genuinely can't tell which ones are original.”
“Minimal-prep was an option for my case and they explained exactly why before recommending it over traditional veneers.”
“Fixed a single chipped front tooth in two visits and the shade match is honestly perfect.”
Straight answers to what people actually want to know before committing to Dental Veneers.
Porcelain veneers typically last ten to fifteen years with good care; composite veneers usually need replacement sooner.
Yes — a digital smile mockup is built and reviewed with you before any tooth preparation begins.
We'll tell you honestly which category your case falls into before starting.
Porcelain lasts longer and resists staining better; composite is faster and more affordable but needs more frequent upkeep.
A full smile redesign is only recommended when it genuinely fits your goals, not by default.
Most porcelain cases take two visits with a temporary in between; composite bonding veneers can often be completed in one visit.
If you're unsure whether your part of Crown Heights is covered, a quick call settles it faster than searching online.
We coordinate Dental Veneers cases for Crown Heights patients from initial mockup through final polish, all under one roof. Ask about combining a design consultation with your next routine visit to save a trip.
