Veneers
At Burbank City Dental, our dentists provide a specialized cosmetic veneers treatment. Veneers can be composed of porcelain or plastic and are molded to look and feel as natural teeth would. They can fix a variety of dental imperfections and transform your smile. They are a permanent solution to reveal a more beautiful smile.
Veneers Can Correct
Color
Unsightly stains from food, smoking or drinks can be easily transformed into the perfect shade with veneers.
Size & Shape
Veneers can be completely customized to match the patient’s exact tooth size and shape to be a comfortable fit and enhance their smile.
Alignment & Spacing
Any size alignment and spacing issues can be corrected with veneers.
Candidates for Veneers
Candidates for veneers must be in good dental health and have enough tooth enamel. They must have healthy teeth and gums. Patients must have realistic expectations and have minor aesthetic problems they would like to change.
What to Expect
During the first consultation, the patient will meet with our dental specialist to undergo an oral exam. The dentist will discuss all concerns and goals for this treatment. A veneers treatment plan will be tailored based off the patient’s concerns and the expertise of the dentist. The dentist will spend time educating the patient on all treatment details and future appointments.
After the diagnosis and treatment planning, our dentist will meet with the patient for preparation. The teeth will be lightly buffed to prepare for the placement of the veneers. A mold will be taken of the teeth and sent to our laboratory for the veneers to be created.

Minimal preparation
Following the preparation, patients will return to our office for bonding. The veneers will be carefully placed on the teeth with water or glycerin to view the fit and shade match. The shades can be adjusted during this appointment. The teeth will be cleaned with a solution to achieve a bond. Then the cement will be placed between the tooth and veneer to set the veneers. After this last appointment, there will be a two-week adjustment period. Then patients will return to our office for a follow-up appointment to evaluate the healing process.
