Before any enamel is touched, we build a digital smile design mockup so you can see roughly what your new smile will look like — and change your mind if it's not right.
Every Smile Center Dentistry office offering Dental Veneers is held to the same four standards, verified before the office ever joins our network.
You'll see a projected preview of your new smile before any tooth preparation begins.
We preserve as much natural enamel as the case allows, rather than defaulting to aggressive tooth reduction.
Material choice is discussed openly, including cost differences, rather than defaulting to the most expensive option.
No per-tooth surprise fees once you've approved the treatment plan and price.
Here's the range of Dental Veneers our Vandalia team handles most, described the way we'd explain it chairside rather than in marketing language.
We photograph your smile and build a digital preview showing projected shape, length, and shade changes. Bring reference photos if you have a specific look in mind — it helps the design process.
Porcelain is stain-resistant and closely mimics natural tooth translucency, typically lasting ten to fifteen years with care. Shade and translucency are matched carefully to look natural next to unaltered teeth.
Composite veneers are sculpted directly onto the tooth in a single visit, at a lower cost than porcelain. Composite doesn't resist staining quite as well as porcelain over the long term.
Not every case qualifies — we'll assess honestly during your consultation rather than force-fitting the technique. Ask specifically whether your case is a minimal-prep candidate during the mockup visit.
We match shade and shape carefully so the repaired tooth blends with the teeth around it. This is usually the fastest and most affordable veneer case type.
For minor corrections, bonding alone sometimes achieves the look you want without the cost of a full veneer. Bonding is reversible and can be touched up more easily over time.
Here's exactly what to expect, start to finish, for Dental Veneers at any of our affiliated offices.
A quick call gets your consultation and photos scheduled.
See your projected new smile on-screen and request adjustments before committing to prep work.
You'll get one flat-rate price for the full case before any enamel is touched.
Veneers are fitted, checked for bite and appearance, and polished to their final finish.
These are unedited, from patients who've actually been through Dental Veneers treatment with us in the past year.
“Seeing the mockup before anything happened to my teeth made this so much less nerve-wracking than I expected.”
“They talked me out of veneers on two teeth and suggested bonding instead, which saved me a decent amount of money.”
“Porcelain veneers matched my other teeth so well that people genuinely can't tell which ones are original.”
“Minimal-prep was an option for my case and they explained exactly why before recommending it over traditional veneers.”
“Fixed a single chipped front tooth in two visits and the shade match is honestly perfect.”
These are the questions Vandalia patients ask most before booking Dental Veneers.
Porcelain veneers typically last ten to fifteen years with good care; composite veneers usually need replacement sooner.
Yes — a digital smile mockup is built and reviewed with you before any tooth preparation begins.
Traditional veneers require some enamel removal and aren't fully reversible; minimal or no-prep options preserve more of the original tooth.
Porcelain lasts longer and resists staining better; composite is faster and more affordable but needs more frequent upkeep.
A full smile redesign is only recommended when it genuinely fits your goals, not by default.
Most porcelain cases take two visits with a temporary in between; composite bonding veneers can often be completed in one visit.
