If you're in the Houston area and looking to upgrade your smile, veneers could be the perfect solution. Veneers are thin, custom-made shells designed to cover the front surface of your teeth. Made from porcelain or resin composite materials, veneers are bonded to your teeth to enhance their appearance. They can be used to fix a range of dental issues, including discolored, worn down, chipped, broken, uneven, irregularly shaped teeth, or gaps. Veneers offer a natural tooth appearance and are stain resistant, providing a long-lasting, brilliant smile.
Why Should I Get Veneers?
Investing in veneers can be a game changer for your oral health and self-confidence. Not only do they enhance your smile, but they also offer a protective layer to your teeth, reducing the risk of further damage. Veneers can correct numerous aesthetic concerns in a single procedure, saving you from undergoing multiple treatments. Plus, with proper care, your veneers can last for many years, making them a cost-effective solution in the long run.

The Benefits Of Veneers
Instantly Improve Your Smile
Veneers can dramatically transform your smile in just a couple of visits. They are custom made to fit perfectly and match the color of your natural teeth, providing an immediate enhancement to your appearance. With veneers, you can confidently show off your smile knowing it looks its very best.
Minimally Invasive Procedure
Unlike other dental procedures, getting veneers is a minimally invasive process. Only a small amount of enamel is removed from your teeth to make room for the veneers. This means less discomfort for you and a quicker recovery time.
Long-Lasting Solution
With proper care, veneers can last up to 15 years or even longer. They are made from durable materials that can withstand daily wear and tear. Plus, they are resistant to stains, so your smile will stay bright and beautiful for years to come.
The Veneers Treatment Process
Consultation and Treatment Planning
The first step in getting veneers is a consultation with Dr. Andrew Goldsmith. During this visit, he will examine your teeth, discuss your aesthetic goals, and create a personalized treatment plan. He may also take X-rays or make impressions of your mouth and teeth.

Preparation
During your next visit, Dr. Goldsmith will prepare your teeth for the veneers. He will remove about half a millimeter of enamel from the tooth surface, which is nearly equal to the thickness of the veneer to be added. Next, he will make a model or impression of your tooth, which is sent to a dental laboratory to construct your veneer.
Bonding
Once your veneers are ready, Dr. Goldsmith will temporarily place them on your teeth to examine their fit and color, repeatedly removing and trimming them to achieve the proper fit; he will then adjust the color as necessary. Once everything is perfect, your teeth will be cleaned, polished, and etched to allow for a strong bonding process. A special cement is applied to the veneer, which is then placed on your tooth. Once properly positioned, Dr. Goldsmith will apply a special light to the dental veneer, activating chemicals in the cement causing it to harden quickly. The final steps involve removing any excess cement, checking your bite, and making any final adjustments needed.
