What Are Veneers?
Veneers are one of the most sought-after cosmetic dentistry treatments, but what exactly are they? In short, they are thin ceramic restorations. By applying them to the front-facing surface of your teeth, our cosmetic dentist in Covington can instantly cover chips, cracks, stains, and more. The best part? Each veneer is meticulously crafted to perfection to address your specific smile goals. That means veneers can be used to correct one tooth or an entire arch, and the results can be as natural or dramatic as you’d like!
The Process of Getting Veneers
After your initial consultation (where Dr. Dean will learn all about your dental needs and smile goals), we will “prep” your teeth for veneers. Removing a thin layer of enamel is essential to ensuring the final result won’t look obtrusive or unnatural in any way. From there, we will take impressions of your teeth, which the lab artisans will use to design your veneers. While they perfect the size, shape, and shade to your exact specifications, we will provide you with a temporary set of veneers to give your new smile a “test drive.” After a few weeks, you’ll return to our office to have your actual veneers bonded to your teeth.
The Benefits of Veneers
With so many cosmetic dental treatments to choose from, why do veneers continue to be so popular year after year? In addition to providing beautiful results, there are a few other benefits to consider:
- Can address the size, shape, and shade of your teeth simultaneously.
- Minimally invasive.

Understanding the Cost of Veneers
When it comes to cosmetic dentistry in Covington, you get what you pay for. And when it comes to your smile, nothing is more important than quality! Investing in veneers could be an excellent idea if you’re looking for a comprehensive method for achieve a beautiful and flawless smile. However, it’s important to remember that there are many cosmetic treatments to choose from, and it’s important to choose the one that will most effectively help you achieve your specific goals. Read on as we go over some key information to keep in mind about the cost of veneers in Covington.
Cost VS Cosmetic Dentistry: What’s Right for Me?
At Dean Dental Care, we use the latest dental technology and highest-quality materials to provide excellent results. We’re proud to offer numerous cosmetic services at different price points to help you accomplish different goals for your smile. Let’s compare some of our most popular treatments:
- Invisalign – With Invisalign, Invisalign Teen, and Six Month Smiles, we have a variety of clear orthodontics to conveniently help you achieve a straighter smile. Orthodontic treatment typically costs much more time and money than cosmetic dentistry, and while they can dramatically improve your smile, they only adjust the position of your teeth and not their color or shape.
- GLO Teeth Whitening – Professional teeth whitening treatments are fast, inexpensive, and offer dazzling results. Plus, we’re proud to offer in-office and take-home GLO teeth whitening for maximum convenience. While teeth whitening can take years of stains off your smile, it cannot change any other aspects of their appearance.
- Dental Bonding – Using a color-matched composite resin, dental bonding is the most cost-effective and fastest option for addressing issues like chips, cracks, and stains. While dental bonding is used to correct many of the flaws that veneers do, it can only be used for minor imperfections and will need to be touched up every several years.
- Veneers – Veneers are by no means the cheapest cosmetic dental service, but they are no doubt the easiest way to comprehensively transform every aspect of your smile all at once. In just a few short appointments, veneers can redesign the color, shape, position, and entire appearance of your pearly whites.

Veneers FAQs
If you’re looking for a dramatic smile makeover, dental veneers could be the solution for you. However, they are quite an investment, so it pays to be well-informed about the procedure. Here are the answers to some of the most common questions we receive about veneers in Covington. If you don’t see the information that you’re looking for below, just give us a call. We’d be happy to answer your questions and get you started with an initial consultation.
Are Veneers Permanent?
Veneers are not considered to be permanent because they will eventually need to be replaced. However, they are irreversible. To ensure that the veneers fit properly on the teeth, small amounts of protective enamel must be removed. Since removed enamel does not grow back, teeth that have been prepared in this way will always need to be covered with either crowns or veneers.
Will I Still Be Able to Drink Coffee with Veneers?
Veneers that are made from porcelain are stain-resistant. Porcelain is a nonporous material, so the particles in dark-colored foods and beverages have a harder time slipping beneath the surface. Ultimately, you should be able to enjoy your morning cup of coffee without worrying too much about staining your veneers. Just keep in mind that veneers are not stain-proof, so excessive consumption of coffee can still have a negative impact. Moderation is key!
How Many Veneers Will I Need?
The goal of veneers is for all of your visible teeth to match, so you’ll receive an appropriate number to accomplish this goal. Some patients opt for a single veneer to cover one pesky tooth while others get anywhere from 6 to 12 veneers for a more complete smile makeover. During your initial consultation with us, we will discuss what the right number is for you so we can best achieve the goals you have for your smile.
Do Veneers Feel Like Real Teeth?
Many patients report that properly placed veneers feel completely natural inside their mouths. They don’t even notice them when they are eating or speaking. This is because veneers are carefully crafted to fit perfectly on your teeth after a small amount of enamel is removed and impressions are made. The enamel removal prevents the restoration from protruding uncomfortably and appearing bulky. Porcelain is a very smooth material, so it will not irritate the soft tissues inside your mouth.
