Do you catch yourself covering your smile when you laugh? Or avoid showing your teeth when taking photos. If you want to invest in a smile you love, Dr. Kelli Brady is here to help you determine your next step. Let’s learn more about the benefits of porcelain veneers and what the process involves.
Think of porcelain veneers as ultra-thin, custom-made shells that Dr. Brady bonds to the front of your teeth to cover up cosmetic flaws in your smile. Their shape, color, and size are custom-crafted for your specific needs and look.
Veneers can completely change your smile and make you feel like you’ve had a total smile makeover. They’re perfect for:
One of the main benefits of porcelain veneers is that they look just like natural teeth. Dr. Brady works closely with you to pick the perfect shade of white so the veneers blend in naturally with your other teeth. Every veneer is also perfectly shaped to fit your smile.
First, porcelain naturally resists stains, so your smile stays bright. Porcelain also reflects light in a way similar to natural tooth enamel. Dr. Brady also prefers porcelain because it’s very durable and gentle on your gum tissue. Perhaps most importantly, porcelain lasts longer than composite veneers.

The best candidates for veneers are people who have healthy teeth and gums, but want a more gorgeous smile. If you have issues like tooth decay or gum disease, Dr. Brady would need to fix those problems first. During your consultation, Dr. Brady will know for sure if porcelain veneers will work for you.
The whole process takes a few visits to get just right.
Porcelain is almost as durable as dental enamel. Many people have their veneers for up to 15 years, or even longer, with the right care: brushing twice daily, flossing, and checkups with Dr. Brady every six months, just like for their natural teeth.
