If your smile could use some improvements in terms of tooth color, shape and alignment, veneers could be just what’s needed to take that next step forward.
Porcelain veneers are thin shells designed to cover the front surface of your teeth. Crafted from stain-resistant material that mimics natural tooth enamel, porcelain veneers can transform your smile in as few as two visits.
Natural-looking
Porcelain veneers are handcrafted using high-grade materials that look stunning, and can help address serious discolorations and gaps between teeth. Furthermore, porcelain veneers can also improve crookedness or mishapenness while typically costing less than other cosmetic dental treatments like crowns.
Porcelain is non-absorbent and thus more stain-resistant than resin composite, unlike natural teeth which absorb stain easily. Furthermore, porcelain comes with its own range of colors and textures which enable Dr. Skoulas to craft natural-looking veneers tailored specifically for you smile.

Dental porcelain veneers, just like natural teeth, may become stained or discolored over time. Therefore, proper oral health practices are crucial. Brushing and flossing daily will remove food particles and bacteria that could contribute to tooth decay; plus it’s recommended visiting your dentist twice annually for professional cleanings and checkups.
Before choosing porcelain veneers, it’s essential to consult a cosmetic dentist first. He or she can assess your smile to ensure you’re suitable for this treatment and discuss budget concerns before prepping your teeth for veneers and making the procedure more affordable if necessary. Once they begin prepping them for placement, you can start enjoying a more beautiful smile!
Easy to care for
Porcelain veneers may be highly durable, but they’re still vulnerable to discoloration and bacteria growth if neglected. Brush and floss regularly – at least twice a day or after every meal. Use toothpaste with low abrasiveness and an alcohol-free mouthwash to guard against gum disease and any other issues that might adversely impact both natural teeth and porcelain veneers.
Avoid foods and beverages that could stain your veneers, such as coffee, red wine, dark sodas, tea, berries and more. In addition, refraining from smoking can discolor both teeth and porcelain veneers over time. Furthermore, physical activities which could cause dental trauma require wearing a mouth guard to protect both. Finally, visit Rancho Mirage dentist regularly for professional cleanings and checkups so they can detect early signs of tooth decay or gum diseases before they cause irreparable harm to them and your veneers.
