At First Arrow Dental, we offer high-quality, custom dental veneers to help you achieve the smile of your dreams. Our team provides expert care to ensure natural-looking and long-lasting results.
What Are Dental Veneers?
Dental veneers are thin, custom-made shells that cover the front surfaces of teeth to improve their appearance. Made from durable porcelain or composite material, veneers are designed to blend seamlessly with your natural teeth while enhancing their shape, color and alignment.
The process of getting veneers involves:
- Consultation and Smile Assessment – Our dentist will discuss your cosmetic goals and evaluate your teeth.
- Tooth Preparation – A minimal amount of enamel is removed to create space for the veneers.
- Impressions and Custom Design – Precise impressions ensure a perfect fit for your new veneers.
- Veneer Placement – Once ready, the veneers are bonded securely to your teeth for a flawless smile.
The Benefits of Dental Veneers
Veneers offer a fast and effective way to improve the appearance of your teeth. Some of the key benefits include:
- Instantly Enhancing Your Smile – Veneers correct stains, chips, cracks and uneven teeth.
- Natural and Aesthetic Appearance – Custom-designed veneers match the color and shape of your natural teeth.
- Durable and Long-Lasting – With proper care, veneers can last for many years.
- Stain Resistance – Porcelain veneers resist staining better than natural enamel.
- Minimally Invasive Treatment – Requires only slight enamel removal compared to other cosmetic procedures.
Is Dental Veneer Treatment Right for You?
If you have teeth that are discolored, misshapen or have minor imperfections, veneers can provide a beautiful and lasting solution. Our dentist will help determine if veneers are the right choice based on your smile goals and overall dental health.

Frequently Asked Questions About Dental Veneers
Are veneers a good option if I grind my teeth?
If you have bruxism (teeth grinding), veneers may still be an option, but you may need to wear a night guard to protect them from excessive wear.
Do veneers stain over time like natural teeth?
Porcelain veneers are stain-resistant, but composite veneers may discolor over time. Maintaining good oral hygiene and avoiding stain-causing foods and drinks can help preserve their brightness.
Can veneers be removed if I change my mind?
Porcelain veneers require some enamel removal, making the process irreversible. If you are unsure, alternative cosmetic treatments may be a better option.
Will my veneers feel different from natural teeth?
It may take a few days to adjust, but well-fitted veneers should feel natural in your mouth when speaking and eating.
Can I get veneers on just one tooth?
Yes! Veneers can be applied to a single tooth or multiple teeth, depending on your aesthetic goals and dental needs.
