Veneers

What Are Veneers?

Veneers are thin, custom-made shells that bond directly to the front surfaces of your teeth, instantly refining their shape, color, and symmetry. They’ve become one of the most requested cosmetic treatments among patients in Plano, Frisco, Allen, and nearby areas, valued for how naturally they transform a smile.

Most veneers are crafted from porcelain, a ceramic material chosen for its ability to mirror the shine and translucency of healthy enamel. Placing veneers well takes real skill and an eye for detail. Dr. Salman Lakhani, a Prosthodontist in Plano, TX, designs every case individually, shaping each veneer to complement your unique smile.

How Durable Are Veneers?

With proper care, veneers can keep your smile bright and consistent for well over a decade. Dr. Lakhani crafts every veneer using premium ceramics and the most advanced, proven bonding techniques available.

Avoiding habits like using your teeth to open packaging or bite down on hard objects will help your veneers last as long as possible. And if a veneer ever chips or breaks, it’s typically possible to replace just that one, without touching the rest of your smile.

Will Veneers Look Like Natural Teeth?

Once bonded, veneers blend seamlessly with the rest of your smile and resist staining from coffee, tea, and even smoking. Their strength and light-reflecting quality rival and often surpass other restorative options, making them one of the most dependable choices for a smile makeover in Plano.

Our Approach to Veneers

01

At Soft Touch Dental, every smile makeover begins with a conversation, not a treatment plan. Dr. Lakhani takes the time to understand what you’d like to change about your smile, then walks you through a design preview so you can see your new smile before a single tooth is touched.

02

From there, we take precise digital impressions and build a treatment plan around your bite, facial features, and long-term oral health, never a one-size-fits-all shade or shape. Each veneer is fabricated with meticulous attention to color, contour, and fit, so the final result feels like an enhancement of your natural smile rather than a replacement for it.

03

You’ll know exactly what to expect at every visit, from your first consultation in our Plano office to the day your new smile is unveiled.

Frequently Asked Questions

Most patients feel little to no discomfort. Dr. Lakhani numbs the area before any enamel is prepared, and the process is minimally invasive compared to other restorative options.

Most veneer treatments take two to three visits, a consultation and design appointment, a preparation and impression visit, and a final bonding appointment once your custom veneers return from the lab.

Veneers work best for patients with generally healthy teeth and gums who want to improve the color, shape, size, or spacing of their smile. Dr. Lakhani will confirm veneers are the right fit during your consultation, or recommend an alternative if your goals call for a different treatment.

Veneers don’t require special maintenance beyond your normal oral hygiene routine, brushing twice daily, flossing, and keeping up with regular checkups. Avoiding using your teeth as tools and wearing a nightguard if you grind your teeth will help them last.

Because veneers are typically considered a cosmetic treatment, they’re not always covered by insurance. Our team will walk you through your options, including financing, so cost doesn’t stand between you and your smile.

Veneers brighten your smile more dramatically and permanently than whitening alone, and unlike whitening, they can also correct shape, size, and spacing, making them a good option if whitening hasn’t given you the results you want.
