Veneers offer remarkable versatility when it comes to smile enhancement. Unlike some cosmetic treatments that address only one issue, veneers can correct several concerns simultaneously and last 10 to 15 years with proper care.
Patients often choose veneers for teeth discolored from a root canal, staining from medications, or discoloration whitening cannot resolve. Veneers also work beautifully for teeth that are worn, chipped, misaligned, uneven, or gapped.
Because dental labs custom-craft each veneer to match your natural tooth color and shape, most people cannot tell the difference between veneers and natural teeth.
Veneers work well for a range of cosmetic concerns. Here's what they can address:
Not sure if veneers fit your goals? Our free consultation includes a full exam and a clear recommendation — no pressure, no commitment.
Porcelain veneers remain the gold standard for durability and aesthetics. They resist staining exceptionally well and mimic the light-reflecting properties of natural enamel, though they require two visits since a lab fabricates them. According to the Cleveland Clinic, porcelain veneers can last 10 to 15 years with proper care. Composite resin veneers are more budget-friendly and can be sculpted directly onto your teeth in a single visit, though they don’t resist staining as well and typically need replacement sooner.
No surprises, no pressure. Here's exactly how treatment works from your first visit to your finished smile.
We use advanced 3D imaging to map your teeth — no messy impressions. You'll see a preview of your projected smile before committing to anything.
Your case is reviewed by our on-site orthodontist. You'll receive a timeline, a tray count, and a clear picture of what your treatment will accomplish.
Your custom trays are ordered and arrive quickly. You'll wear each set for about two weeks, switching at home on your own schedule.
We monitor your progress with short office visits — no lengthy appointments. Most patients are in and out in under 30 minutes.
Once treatment is complete, we fit you with a retainer to hold your results long-term. The finish line is clearer than you'd expect.
Veneer cost depends on the material and number of teeth treated. In the Bay Area, porcelain veneers typically range from about $1,000 to $2,500 per tooth, while composite veneers generally run $400 to $1,000 per tooth. Most patients treat their front six to eight teeth for a full smile transformation.
Veneers are considered cosmetic, so they are typically not covered by dental insurance. We accept HSA and FSA funds and offer Cherry financing with flexible monthly payment plans. Your consultation includes a full cost breakdown before you commit to anything.
Veneers require the same care as your natural teeth, plus a few extra habits to protect your investment.
With proper care, porcelain veneers can last 10 to 15 years and composite veneers 5 to 7 years.
Veneers are not the right fit for every case. Patients with severe tooth decay, active gum disease, or significantly weakened teeth may need those issues addressed first. Patients who clench or grind heavily should discuss protective measures before committing to veneers. During your consultation, we may recommend alternatives like teeth whitening or dental bonding if those options better suit your goals.
Both improve your smile, but the material affects cost, durability, and timeline. Here's a side-by-side look.
| Factor | Porcelain | Composite |
|---|---|---|
| Durability | ✓ 10–15 years | 5–7 years |
| Stain resistance | ✓ Excellent | Fair |
| Visits needed | Two, lab-fabricated | ✓ One, sculpted chairside |
| Cost per tooth | $1,000–$2,500 | ✓ $400–$1,000 |
Every veneer case at Smile Craft is planned by your dentist, from material choice to final shade matching.

The questions patients ask most before treatment — answered plainly.
Veneers may feel strange at first, but most patients adjust within a few days. Let us know about any bite issues so we can make adjustments.
Most dental veneers last 10 to 15 years for porcelain and 5 to 7 years for composite. Proper care and regular checkups help veneers last as long as possible.
Porcelain veneer placement involves removing a small amount of enamel, making the process irreversible. Most patients find the procedure comfortable with local anesthesia, and mild sensitivity for a few days is normal.
Veneers are used only on front teeth and are not appropriate for molars. Most people opt for an even number, commonly six, eight, or ten, depending on their smile goals.
Veneers are primarily cosmetic and typically not covered by dental insurance. We accept HSA and FSA funds and offer Cherry financing to help make treatment more affordable.
