Porcelain VeneersAn Overview
Porcelain veneers are typically used to eliminate unwanted imperfections in smiles, such as gaps, stains, chips, or misshapen teeth. But they can also provide a beautiful new smile after tooth damage or wear as a result of a bite disorder. They are made from ultra thin, high quality ceramic materials and permanently bonded to the tooth’s surface – creating a natural look patients can be proud of for years to come.
The high quality ceramic used for porcelain veneers is durable and more stain resistant than natural tooth enamel. They will be custom color matched to blend with your existing teeth and overall appearance.
For more than 20 years, Annapolis cosmetic dentist Dr. Vernon Sheen has been using porcelain veneers to improve the beauty and health of patients’ smiles.

After a thorough smile examination, Dr. Sheen will discuss your expectations to ensure the procedure results in the comfortable, natural smile you expected. During your first visit, small amounts of enamel will be removed from each tooth that requires a veneer. After this process is complete, Dr. Sheen will take an impression of your smile and prepare your teeth for temporary fittings while your permanent restorations are being created.
Your new porcelain veneers will be ready to replace the temporaries in approximately 2-3 weeks. These will be permanently bonded to your teeth and then polished to a natural luster. Dr. Sheen will advise on how to ensure that your new veneers are cared for and can support long term dental health.
