Transform your smile with the beauty and precision of porcelain veneers. Our Irvine dental practice offers a range of general dentistry services, including porcelain veneers to help you achieve a healthier, more confident smile.
Porcelain veneers provide a natural look while correcting imperfections like gaps, discoloration, or uneven teeth. With advanced technology and personalized care, we ensure your veneers blend seamlessly with your natural teeth for stunning, long-lasting results.
Porcelain veneers are wafer-thin shells that are custom-crafted to fit over the front surface of your teeth. They offer a natural appearance by mimicking the light-reflecting properties of your enamel.
Veneers can instantly transform your smile, eliminating the appearance of gaps, uneven teeth, or stains that have been resistant to teeth whitening treatments. Our team uses advanced dental technology and materials to ensure your porcelain veneers look and feel like your natural teeth - only better.
While both porcelain and composite veneers aim to enhance the look of your teeth, there are key differences that might make one more suitable for you than the other.
Porcelain veneers are incredibly durable and can last up to 15 years with proper care. Composite veneers, although less expensive, generally have a shorter lifespan of about 4 to 8 years.
Porcelain has a translucent quality that closely mimics natural tooth enamel. Composite veneers can look natural but lack the translucent quality of porcelain, which can make them appear less lifelike.
Porcelain is stain-resistant and easier to maintain compared to composite, which can be susceptible to staining and may require more frequent polishing.
If you've ever found yourself avoiding social situations, or holding back a full smile in photos, porcelain veneers might be the transformation you've been waiting for. Not only do veneers offer a quick and long-lasting cosmetic solution, but they also provide the following benefits:

While the cost can vary, investing in porcelain veneers is an investment in your self-confidence and overall well-being.

At The Tooth Co., we prioritize your comfort throughout the process. Local anesthesia is used to minimize any discomfort during the procedure.
While porcelain veneers are considered to be a very safe procedure, as with any medical procedure, they come with minor risks such as sensitivity, a slight chance of infection, or veneer detachment. Dr. Perrin will discuss all possible risks and complications during your initial consultation.
We stand by the quality of our work. If you experience any emergency issues with your veneers, such as cracking or detachment, it's important to schedule an appointment for an assessment as soon as possible.
Generally, yes. Veneers can be placed alongside teeth that have fillings or dental crowns. We will provide a comprehensive examination to determine the best course of action for your unique dental needs.
Taking care of your porcelain veneers involves the same care you'd give your natural teeth - regular brushing, flossing, and routine check-ups. We also recommend avoiding hard foods that can crack or chip the veneers.
Porcelain veneers are highly resistant to staining. However, the bonding material used to attach the veneers can discolor over time. Regular cleanings and avoiding stain-causing substances can help maintain their appearance.
