Veneer FAQ – Most asked questions about getting veneers


Cosmetic Smile Center – Dr. Katherine Roman

Will my teeth look fake?

Our goal is not to create a “veneer look.” We focus on shape, texture, translucency, proportions and shade to create a smile that looks natural and appropriate for you.

Will my teeth be shaved down?

Every case is different. During your consultation, Dr. Roman evaluates how much tooth preparation is actually necessary. Whenever clinically appropriate, conservative/minimal-prep approaches may be considered.

What if I don’t like the design?

That’s why planning comes first. We discuss the proposed smile before treatment begins.

Will the veneers be too white?

Tooth shade is part of the design process. We discuss your preferences while considering your facial features, existing teeth and overall smile harmony.

Will veneers work for me?

Not everyone is an ideal candidate. Your teeth, gums, bite, existing restorations and oral health all need to be evaluated first.
