Enhance Your Smile With Dr. Cortes
Veneers are thin shells that can be placed over the surface of your teeth to cover minor cosmetic flaws. They’re made from durable, tooth-colored porcelain to ensure a stunning appearance and long-lasting results. If you decide to get veneers, Dr. Cortes will customize them to blend in seamlessly with your natural teeth for a perfect smile.
Dr. Cortes recommends veneers for correcting the following issues:
- Chipped or cracked teeth
- Stained or discolored teeth
- Crooked or misshapen teeth
- Gaps between teeth
Our Veneers Process
Enhancing your smile with veneers is a fast and easy process that can be finished in just two appointments.
During your first visit, Dr. Cortes will take detailed impressions of your teeth so your veneers can be customized to match them. He’ll also gently buff the surface of your teeth to ensure the veneers will fit comfortably.
It’ll take a couple of weeks for your veneers to be crafted in our laboratory. Once they’re ready, you can return to our office and finish your treatment.
After ensuring they look natural and fit perfectly, Dr. Cortes will bond the veneers to your teeth with a strong dental resin and solidify the bond with a special light. At this point, you’ll be ready to show off your new smile.

Frequently Asked Questions
Veneers are a non-surgical procedure that shouldn’t be painful at all. Dr. Cortes will numb your teeth with a local anesthetic before placing your veneers to ensure you don’t feel a thing. You may experience mild discomfort right after treatment, but this should be easily manageable with over-the-counter pain relievers and will fade within a few hours.
With proper care, veneers will typically last for seven to fifteen years. If you maintain excellent oral hygiene and visit Dr. Cortes for biannual checkups, they may last even longer. To get the most out of your veneers, avoid habits that are bad for your teeth such as biting your fingernails.
Veneers are an elective procedure, so most insurance providers won’t cover them. However, you may be able to get a portion of your treatment covered depending on the terms of your plan. The amount of payment you receive will vary depending on your plan and provider. If you have any questions about your insurance coverage, we’ll be happy to assist you.
If a veneer falls out or gets damaged in any way, don’t attempt to fix it yourself. This could lead to additional issues and set your treatment back further. Instead, store it in a safe place until Dr. Cortes can see you.
Veneers can be kept clean just like natural teeth, with daily brushing and flossing. It’s also essential to visit Dr. Cortes for cleanings and checkups at least twice a year. As long as you keep up with your oral care routine, your veneers will last for several years.
Yes! In many cases, Dr. Cortes can place porcelain veneers over crooked teeth to help them appear straighter. Veneers can also eliminate small gaps between your teeth and other minor alignment issues. During your initial consultation, Dr. Cortes will examine your teeth to determine if veneers can deliver the results you’re looking for.
