What Are Porcelain Veneers?
Porcelain veneers are thin, custom-made shells crafted from high-quality dental porcelain. Designed to cover the front surface of your teeth, they correct imperfections like discoloration, chips, gaps, or misalignment.
Unlike other dental treatments, veneers are minimally invasive and can be tailored to match the shape, size, and color of your natural teeth. This makes them a go-to choice for those seeking a flawless smile without extensive dental work.
Veneers are commonly used to improve the appearance of:
- Discolored teeth
- Chipped teeth
- Cracked teeth
- Misshapen teeth
Porcelain Veneer Treatment Process
Consultation and Smile Design
Your journey begins with a consultation. Our dentist in Forked River, NJ, will evaluate your oral health, discuss your goals, and take digital impressions or X-rays. Together, you’ll design your ideal smile, choosing the perfect veneer shape and shade.
Tooth Preparation
To ensure a natural fit, a thin layer of enamel (about 0.5mm) is gently removed from the front of your teeth. This minimally invasive step usually requires only local anesthesia for comfort.
Temporary Veneers
While your custom porcelain veneers are crafted in a dental lab (a process that takes one to two weeks), you may receive temporary veneers to protect your teeth and maintain your smile’s appearance.
Bonding the Veneers
Once your permanent veneers are ready, Dr. Campbell will check their fit and color. Using a strong dental adhesive, the veneers are bonded to your teeth and polished for a flawless finish.
Follow-Up Care
After placement, our dentist will schedule a follow-up visit to ensure your veneers are comfortable and functioning perfectly. With proper care, your new smile can last for decades.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do porcelain veneers stain, and can they be whitened?
Porcelain veneers can stain, but they are created to be stain-resistant. Unfortunately, once they are stained, the best option to return to a pearlescent white is to have the veneers completely replaced.
Are porcelain veneers removable?
No. Because the process involves shaving off a layer of your teeth, once you have porcelain veneers, they are permanent.
How do I know if I have enough enamel for veneers?
Your dentist will evaluate your enamel during a consultation using X-rays or a physical exam to determine if dental veneers are suitable.
