No one should have to hide their smile. Chips, gaps, discoloration, or anything you've been feeling self conscious about will be a thing of the past with veneers. Enhance your smile and get the confidence you deserve.
Veneers are ultra-thin, custom-made shells crafted from porcelain or composite resin that are bonded to the front of your teeth to enhance their appearance. At Berry Dental Group in Mt. Juliet, Dr. Zac Berry uses veneers as a trusted cosmetic dentistry solution to transform smiles with both artistry and precision. Whether you're dealing with chipped, discolored, misshapen, or slightly misaligned teeth, veneers offer a natural-looking way to rejuvenate your smile while preserving most of your natural tooth structure.
Each veneer is carefully designed to match the color, shape, and length of your existing teeth, ensuring a seamless and lifelike appearance. With advanced imaging and digital technology, we’re able to plan and perform veneer treatments that are minimally invasive and remarkably precise. For many patients, veneers are the ideal solution to achieve a balanced, confident smile without the need for more extensive orthodontic or restorative procedures.

You don’t need veneers for every tooth. Depending on your needs, you can get just one or an entire set.

Because veneers are tailored specifically for you, they blend beautifully with your existing teeth. Dr. Berry uses high-quality materials that mimic the translucency of enamel, making the improvement subtle and realistic. Whether you're covering a single tooth or addressing multiple concerns, the outcome is consistently smooth, even, and polished.
Porcelain veneers are designed to resist staining and wear, offering longevity with proper care. With regular dental checkups and good home hygiene, veneers can last 10 to 15 years or more, making them a reliable long-term investment for your smile.
Unlike braces or more invasive dental treatments, veneers offer near-instant results in just a few visits. You'll leave Berry Dental Group with a refreshed smile, often within two appointments. And because our clinic features advanced technology like digital imaging and same-day capabilities, the planning and placement process is smooth and efficient.
We will first take photos of your teeth and discuss your smile goals with you. Sometimes, we will even create a digital smile mock-up to plan your treatment, all before touching a single tooth! Once we've decided on a treatment plan, Dr. Berry will gently buff away a thin layer of enamel to prepare your teeth that will be receiving the veneers.
After your teeth are prepared, you’ll have dental impressions or models taken of your teeth. These will be sent to a dental lab where your permanent veneers will be created. You will be sent home with a set of temporary resin veneers, which will protect your newly-prepared teeth until your permanent veneers are ready.
Once your Mt. Juliet dentist has checked the fit of your custom-made veneers and everything looks good, they’ll be attached to your teeth permanently using dental adhesive, completing your brand new smile.
No. Since traditional veneers are bonded into place permanently, they are not meant to be removed. In other words, the procedure is not reversible, as it requires a thin layer of enamel to be permanently buffed away from your teeth. After your treatment, you will need to take proper care of your veneers, and have them replaced if any of them break or become dislodged.
This varies and depends on how well you take care of your veneers, but most patients can keep a set of veneers for 15 to 20 years. Over time, your veneers may wear down, and you may need to have individual veneers repaired or replaced.
The best way to prolong the lifespan of your veneers is to brush and floss properly, and to keep visiting your dentist every six months for a teeth cleaning and oral exam. You should also avoid doing things that could break or dislodge your veneers, such as chewing non-food objects, chewing hard foods with your front teeth, or using your teeth as tools.
Veneers are typically made of a high-quality ceramic porcelain material that looks and feels just like natural tooth enamel. The porcelain will be matched to the color of your teeth and is very similar to enamel in hardness and translucence, making it an ideal material for enhancing the appearance of your smile.
Resin veneers are also available, but they are typically only used as temporary veneers because resin does not look as natural, and is not nearly as durable as porcelain veneers.
Veneers and Lumineers are very similar, except that Lumineers are much thinner than traditional veneers. Lumineers are a specific brand of veneers that are made out of a proprietary ceramic material. They are usually only about 0.2mm thick, whereas traditional veneers are about 0.5mm thick. Because of this, Lumineers can often be placed without trimming your existing enamel. This is why they’re often called “no-prep” or “minimal-prep” veneers.
The cost of veneers will vary depending on how many teeth will be receiving veneers, your overall oral health, the size and shape of each tooth, and a variety of other factors. The best way to get an accurate cost estimate is to contact your dentist for a cosmetic consultation. During your consultation, your dentist will examine your mouth, assess your oral health, and give you a quote for the cost of treatment with veneers.
No, veneers do not ruin your natural teeth. In fact, they are designed to preserve as much of your natural tooth as possible. During the preparation process, a thin layer of enamel is gently removed to allow the veneer to bond correctly. Dr. Berry ensures this step is done with great care to protect and maintain the health and strength of your underlying teeth for years to come.
On average, porcelain veneers can last between 10 and 15 years with proper oral hygiene and regular dental checkups. At Berry Dental Group, our team provides ongoing preventive care and guidance to help you keep your veneers looking and functioning their best over time. Avoiding very hard foods and not using your teeth as tools can also help extend their lifespan.
Yes. Veneers are an excellent option for teeth that are stained or discolored, especially for stains that don’t respond well to whitening treatments. They cover the entire front surface of the tooth, effectively masking deep discoloration and creating a whiter, more uniform smile. Dr. Berry will assess your specific needs during your consultation to determine the most effective cosmetic solution for your goals.
While both veneers and crowns can improve the appearance of teeth, they serve different functions. Veneers cover only the front surface of the tooth and are typically used for cosmetic purposes. Crowns, on the other hand, encase the entire tooth and are often used when more restoration is needed due to damage or decay. At Berry Dental Group, we offer both options, along with guidance to help you choose the treatment that's right for your smile and oral health.
