What they fix, what they cost, whether they hurt, and how long they really last: answered with clinical evidence, then designed and hand-finished by Dr. Anne Gershkowitz.
Design, preparation and final polish stay with Dr. Anne Gershkowitz; your case is never passed to an associate.

The 2-Day Hollywood Smile delivers the same hand-finished porcelain on a 48-hour, in-house schedule.
Porcelain veneers start at $1,800 per tooth, and your exact all-in number is locked at the consultation.
Major insurance accepted, benefits verified first, financing for the balance.
Veneers cover cosmetic flaws on the front of the teeth. They do not treat decay or gum disease; those are handled first, and we tell you so at the exam.
Stains that whitening cannot lift
Chipped or broken front teeth
Gaps and uneven spacing
Teeth that are small or misshapen
Worn edges that age the smile
A uniform, brighter smile
We place all three. Which one fits depends on your enamel, your goals, and your habits.
Veneers are not the only way to change a tooth's appearance. Here is how they compare with crowns and bonding.
A veneer is a thin shell, roughly 0.5 to 1 mm, that covers the front of the tooth and leaves most of it intact, used mostly on front teeth. A crown is about 2 mm thick, covers the whole tooth, and is used more toward the back. Bonding is composite resin shaped onto the tooth in a single visit, the least expensive option and the shortest-lived.
An exam and candidacy review, then conservative preparation that removes only a little enamel. You choose shade and shape with Dr. Gershkowitz advising, in the chair.
Fit, color, and shape are checked with you before anything is permanent. The veneers are bonded, light-cured, then sculpted and polished.
Lab fabrication usually takes a few weeks. To compress it, see the 2-Day Hollywood Smile below.
The preparation is gentler than most fillings, and little or no anesthesia is usually needed. Some heat and cold sensitivity afterward is normal and settles. Throbbing pain is not; if it happens, we see you promptly.
Plan on 10 to 15 years with proper care. The evidence is stronger than most people expect: across 25 studies and about 6,500 veneers, 95.5% were still in service at 10 years. Grinding is the main thing that shortens that, and a night guard protects the work.
Traditional porcelain veneers are not, because a small amount of enamel is removed. That is why the design is settled with you in the chair before anything permanent is done, and why we are candid about candidacy.
People with discolored, chipped, worn, or irregularly shaped front teeth and healthy gums. Active gum disease or extensive decay rules veneers out until it is treated.
No. Brush twice a day with a non-abrasive toothpaste and floss daily, the same as natural teeth.
No. The surface is non-porous, so coffee, wine, and tea do not discolor it the way they do natural enamel. Ordinary brushing is all the upkeep they need.
Across the US, porcelain veneers run roughly $1,000 to $2,500 per tooth. Because veneers are cosmetic, most dental insurance does not cover them, though partial coverage sometimes applies when a veneer also restores a damaged tooth. We verify your benefits before treatment.
Your exact, all-inclusive price, including financing, is laid out at the consultation and locked before any work begins.
We accept major credit cards, and financing is available through third-party partners.
