What Are Dental Veneers?
Dental veneers are thin, custom-made shells that are bonded to the front of your teeth to instantly improve their appearance. At Kind Heart Dental in Santa Maria, CA, Dr. Christiane Trigueros offers high-quality porcelain veneers that correct imperfections such as chips, discoloration, uneven spacing, and misshapen teeth. Veneers provide a long-lasting solution for a picture-perfect smile.
How It Works
A Simple 3-Step Process
Step 1
Smile Consultation
We’ll evaluate your teeth and discuss your goals to determine if veneers are the right cosmetic option for you.
Step 2
Tooth Preparation and Impressions
A small amount of enamel is removed, and impressions are taken to craft your custom veneers.

Veneer Placement and Smile Reveal
Once your veneers are ready, we bond them to your teeth and refine the fit and look for a natural, flawless result.
