Say goodbye to stains, chips, and gaps with custom veneers. Schedule your Manhattan consultation and unlock your most confident smile!
Dental veneers are ultra-thin shells, similar to a contact lens for your teeth, that are custom-crafted to cover the front surface of your teeth. Each porcelain veneer is precisely designed to improve your tooth’s appearance while maintaining a natural look. Whether you’re dealing with discolored teeth, gaps, or misshapen teeth, veneers offer a comprehensive solution for multiple dental issues.
Our team uses high-quality materials and advanced techniques to ensure your veneers feel natural and look beautiful. From the initial consultation through the final placement, we focus on creating smile makeovers that reflect your personality while addressing your aesthetic concerns.
Do you find yourself hiding your smile in photos or covering your mouth when you laugh? You’re not alone. Stained, chipped, or misshapen teeth can hold you back from feeling your best. Unlike traditional options like braces that take years, porcelain veneers give you the perfect smile you’ve dreamed of in just a few visits.
Veneers do more than just enhance your appearance – they’re a comprehensive solution for multiple cosmetic issues at once. Whether you’re dealing with misaligned teeth, stubborn discoloration, or gaps that affect your confidence, veneers deliver stunning results that look and feel natural.
Plus, they’re highly stain-resistant, meaning you can enjoy your morning coffee or evening wine without worry. With proper care, your beautiful new smile can last 10-15 years or more.
Our caring professionals always put your comfort, health, and safety first, so we work closely with you to explain each stage of the veneer process. While every patient is different and has a unique personalized plan, you can generally expect the following steps when getting veneers, which involves two appointments:
We discuss your goals for your smile, how you want your new smile to look, and if veneers are right for you.
Your dentist will take X-rays, photographs, and a 3D scan of your teeth to give us a detailed image to more accurately diagnose your concerns. This cutting-edge technology also helps you visualize how your smile will transform.
To prepare your teeth for the veneers, we remove a small amount of enamel from the teeth to ensure they fit comfortably. The top eight front teeth are most commonly topped with veneers.
We take impressions of your prepared teeth, which are used as a model for your permanent veneers. While you wait, we place temporary veneers so you can still smile confidently when you leave our office.
When your customized veneers arrive, we bond them to your teeth and make final adjustments, leaving you with a beautiful, even smile.

Considering porcelain veneers to transform your smile? The best candidates maintain good oral health while wanting to improve their smile’s appearance. Veneers might be perfect for you if you’re self-conscious about stained teeth that won’t respond to whitening, tired of seeing chips or worn edges in photos, or frustrated by small gaps and misalignments that impact your confidence.
During your consultation at our Manhattan office, Dr. Shin will carefully evaluate your oral health to ensure veneers are your best option. We’ll assess important factors like your tooth enamel thickness, gum tissue health, and bite alignment to guarantee long-lasting results. Together, we’ll create a custom treatment plan that addresses your unique cosmetic concerns and delivers the beautiful smile you deserve.
If you look in the mirror and wish your smile was brighter, whiter, straighter, or more even, veneers may be the right solution for you. They do more than just enhance your smile’s appearance. This life-changing cosmetic treatment also offers the following advantages:
While veneers are not entirely immune to staining, they are more stain-resistant than the tooth’s natural enamel, keeping your smile looking bright and radiant.
We take a personalized and detail-oriented approach to veneers to ensure their shade and shape match your natural teeth. This gives you a natural finish and an authentic smile that reflects your personality.
Veneers don’t require any additional maintenance or dental appointments, making them easy to care for and maintain.
Veneers are made with durable porcelain, and with the proper care, they can last up to 15 years, giving you long-lasting results.
Porcelain veneers generally last 10-15 years or longer with proper care, while composite veneers typically last around 5-7 years. Practicing good oral hygiene and avoiding harmful habits like teeth grinding can help prolong their lifespan.
No, traditional porcelain veneers are not reversible. A small amount of enamel is removed from the tooth surface during preparation, which cannot be restored. However, no-prep veneers like Lumineers may be reversible because they require minimal or no enamel removal.
Yes, veneers are designed to look and feel like natural teeth. When properly bonded by a dentist, they blend seamlessly with your smile and feel comfortable in your mouth.
Porcelain veneers are highly stain-resistant, even against foods and drinks like coffee or red wine. In contrast, composite veneers are more prone to staining over time. Maintaining good oral hygiene and limiting exposure to staining substances can help preserve their appearance.
Teeth whitening is most effective on yellowish stains caused by food, drinks, or smoking. Stains from medications (e.g., tetracycline) or intrinsic discoloration due to genetics are harder to treat and may require alternative solutions.
Veneers can address a variety of cosmetic concerns, including:
