Custom dental veneers can improve the color, shape, size, and overall appearance of your teeth for a brighter, more confident smile. At GSmile Dental, Dr. Gil Dechavez creates personalized veneer treatments designed to look beautiful, balanced, and natural.
Dental veneers are thin, custom-made shells placed over the front surface of your teeth to enhance your smile. They are commonly used to correct stains, chips, gaps, uneven edges, worn teeth, or teeth that appear small or misshapen.
At GSmile Dental, veneers are carefully designed to match your facial features, smile goals, and natural tooth color for a result that looks polished but not artificial.

Most frequently question about veneers
With proper care, porcelain veneers can last 10 to 15 years or longer. Their lifespan depends on your oral hygiene, bite, habits, and regular dental checkups. Avoiding hard biting, teeth grinding, and using your teeth as tools can help protect your veneers.
Yes. Veneers can look very natural when they are custom-designed for your face, smile line, tooth shape, and desired shade. At GSmile Dental, the goal is to create a smile that looks brighter and more balanced without looking artificial.
Porcelain veneers are considered a long-term cosmetic treatment because a thin layer of enamel may need to be adjusted before placement. That means the tooth will usually need to remain covered with a veneer or another restoration in the future.
When done properly by an experienced dentist, veneers are designed to preserve as much natural tooth structure as possible. A consultation is important to evaluate your teeth, gums, bite, and enamel before deciding if veneers are the right option for you.
Most patients experience little to no pain during the veneer process. Local anesthesia may be used during tooth preparation to keep you comfortable. Some temporary sensitivity can happen after treatment, but it usually improves as your teeth adjust.
Veneers can improve the appearance of teeth that are chipped, stained, worn, uneven, slightly misaligned, or have small gaps. For more complex alignment or bite issues, Invisalign or another dental treatment may be recommended before veneers.
Teeth whitening only changes the color of your natural teeth, while veneers can improve color, shape, size, symmetry, and overall smile balance. Veneers may be a better option for deep stains, worn teeth, chips, gaps, or teeth that do not respond well to whitening.
The cost of veneers can vary depending on the number of teeth treated, the type of veneer material, and the complexity of your smile design. The best way to get an accurate estimate is to schedule a consultation at GSmile Dental, where your teeth, goals, and treatment options can be evaluated.
