Porcelain Veneers

What are porcelain veneers?

Veneers are very thin pieces of durable porcelain that are custom designed for each specific tooth shape and size.

Cosmetic dentist, Dr. Randi Green uses the latest digital dentistry tools and techniques to provide her patients with beautiful, natural-looking smiles.

Often referred to as "Instant Orthodontics", cosmetic veneers conceal the teeth behind wafer-thin shells of porcelain.

Porcelain veneers deliver a bright smile that resists discoloration for as long as your veneers last. Highly durable, custom veneers can last 10-20 years or longer.

What Should I Expect with Dr. Green’s Porcelain Veneers?

Dr. Randi Green has advanced training as a cosmetic dentist in Missouri and uses physiologic bite principles when designing a patient’s smile.

She takes accurate measurements to design the size, shape, contours and color scheme of each porcelain veneer to best suit your dental and facial features.

Veneers with our Springfield, MO top dentist are custom-made, so that no two sets will be the same.

The highest-quality cosmetic dentistry is a combination of art as well as science that creates aesthetically pleasing results.

In recognition of her cosmetic training, Dr. Green received her fellowship and continues her pursuit of advanced training in the art of smile design from the prestigious Las Vegas Institute for Advanced Dental Studies (LVI).

Porcelain veneers usually involve two visits with the Smile Doctor.

1. At the first visit, we take 3D digital impressions of your teeth and place comfortable tooth-matched temporaries while your custom veneers are in fabrication. This step also serves as your smile “test drive” so that you can see and feel what your teeth will look like and make changes! When veneers are milled on-site you typically do not get the option to make any changes.
2. On the second visit, Dr. Green removes the temporary veneers, then fits and bonds each custom porcelain veneer to your natural teeth for your final smile design. You walk out with a confident, beautiful new smile.

Why Does a Cosmetic Dentist Work With a Master Ceramist?

After the first visit Dr. Green, then works hand-in-hand with a master ceramist to design and make your veneers.

Patients considering cosmetic dental procedures should be aware of the quality of lab and materials used as much as the dentist’s training. We typically place e.max porcelain.

Veneers should reflect light in the same manner as your natural tooth enamel, which enables them to blend into your natural smile.

Smile design takes into consideration several features, which are specified when Dr. Green works with master ceramists.

Master ceramists are recognized as leaders in their field and use microscopes and computerization to ensure the highest integrity possible with Dr. Green's porcelain veneer cases.

Dr. Green specifies the following details and features of all custom-designed porcelain veneers with her master ceramist.

• Color
• Angle
• Line
• Shape
• Thickness
• Translucency
• Occlusion (bite)

What is the Difference Between Dentists that Offer Porcelain Veneers?

Any dentist in Missouri can say they are a cosmetic dentist. Choosing a dentist who has a lot of experience designing custom smiles is important.

In addition to the beautiful cosmetic outcome, managing the bite and functionality of your new veneers is just as important.

Don’t be afraid to ask your dentist before any cosmetic procedure if they have advanced cosmetic training or to see finished cases.

Not everyone may need porcelain veneers; alternative solutions like orthodontics or Invisalign can also be options based on your smile's imperfections.

In your consultation with Dr. Green, explore various options for a vibrant, healthy smile. Dr. Green offers advanced cosmetic dentistry, including porcelain veneers and crowns, to enhance smiles in the 417 area and beyond.

As a Missouri cosmetic dentist, Dr. Randi Green, a Fellow of the Las Vegas Institute for Advanced Dental Studies and past president of the International Association of Physiologic Aesthetics, has over 1000 hours of advanced training and continuing education.

Can I "test-drive" my veneers?

Yes! Dr. Green utilizes a critical step to ensure her patients are happy with the attributes of their new smiles. Many dental patients are choosing porcelain veneers for instant smile makeovers. Dr. Green can help you narrow the number of cosmetic veneer options and even help her patients "test drive" the look of their veneers before final porcelain. This trial smile period allows our guests to wear their new smile home and show friends and family before the final procedure.

How Long Will Porcelain Veneers Last?

Veneers also aren't forever and will eventually need to be replaced. Choosing veneers for your smile makeover is a customized stepped process, but we often hear one question; "How long do veneers last?"

Proper home care and other precautions can help your porcelain veneers last for twenty or more years. Our guests who take care of their porcelain veneers can see them last typically between 15 and 25 years.

Can I Finance or Make Payments on Porcelain Veneers?

Your trusted veneers dentist, Dr. Green, understands that achieving your dream smile is a lifelong goal and offers affordable veneer payment plans and various investment options. Before starting your veneer treatment, Dr. Green will assess your oral health to ensure a solid foundation for your cosmetic dentistry.

The investment reflects your cosmetic dentist's advanced training, materials, and experience regarding porcelain veneers. Opting for the lowest price may result in future complications due to subpar materials or inadequate skills, of which we see many redos.

We recognize that many guests inquire about veneer payment plans. The good news is, yes, we provide multiple payment options for cosmetic veneers through our financial partners.

Feel free to discuss your financial choices with our friendly smile team member before your initial visit with Dr. Green.

Is There an Alternative to Cosmetic Porcelain Veneers?

Yes! There are alternatives to straighten teeth without the investment of veneers.

Porcelain veneers aren’t always your only option for a bright, white, beautiful smile.

If you have been told that veneers are the only way to achieve your goals, maybe it’s time for a second opinion with the Smile Doctor.

Cosmetic composite bonding, teeth whitening, or even straightening teeth with clear aligners like Invisalign are all conservative options that can give you the smile you want in a more budget-friendly way.
