Porcelain Veneers at Port Road Dental
Porcelain veneers are a popular cosmetic treatment at Port Road Dental, offering patients in Fox Point, Wisconsin a way to correct multiple smile concerns at once. By bonding thin, durable porcelain shells to the front of selected teeth, we can improve color, close gaps, and reshape your smile with minimal tooth preparation and long-lasting results.
What Are Porcelain Veneers?
Porcelain veneers are custom-crafted covers that are bonded to the front surface of your teeth. The porcelain closely mimics natural enamel, reflecting light in a similar way while resisting stains from coffee, tea, wine, and everyday foods. Veneers are ideal for patients who want a dramatic cosmetic improvement without more extensive treatments.
Concerns Porcelain Veneers Can Fix
Veneers can address several cosmetic issues at once, making them a versatile solution for a full or partial smile makeover.
- Stained or discolored teeth Brighten teeth that do not respond well to whitening.
- Chips, cracks, and worn edges Smooth out rough or damaged tooth surfaces for a more uniform look.
- Small gaps between teeth Close minor spaces without braces or aligners.
- Mildly crooked or uneven teeth Create the appearance of straighter, more symmetrical teeth.

We take time to understand your goals and design veneers that match your face, lips, and natural tooth shade. Most patients complete treatment in just a few visits.

Caring for Your New Smile

Porcelain Veneers: Frequently Asked Questions
- Are porcelain veneers painful?
- Most patients are surprised by how comfortable the veneer process feels. We gently numb the area before reshaping your teeth, and many people report only mild soreness afterward that fades quickly.
- How long do porcelain veneers last?
- With proper care, porcelain veneers can often last 10–15 years or longer. Regular checkups, good brushing and flossing habits, and avoiding habits like nail-biting or chewing ice all help extend their lifespan.
- Will my veneers look fake?
- No. At Port Road Dental, veneers are carefully designed to match your natural teeth in color, shape, and translucency. Our goal is a refreshed, natural smile—not a one-size-fits-all look.
- Do porcelain veneers stain?
- The porcelain used for veneers is highly resistant to staining, especially compared to natural enamel. However, limiting dark beverages, tobacco, and highly pigmented foods can help keep your smile looking its best.
- Am I a good candidate for porcelain veneers?
- You may be a good candidate if you have healthy gums and teeth but want to improve issues like discoloration, minor gaps, chips, or uneven tooth shapes. During your consultation, we will examine your mouth and discuss whether veneers or another option is best for you.
- How many teeth need veneers?
- This depends on your goals. Some patients choose veneers for just a few front teeth, while others prefer a fuller smile makeover. We will review smile photos with you and recommend the number of veneers needed to achieve your desired result.
- Can porcelain veneers be repaired or replaced?
- If a veneer chips or loosens, it can often be repaired or replaced. It is important to contact Port Road Dental right away so we can assess the veneer and protect the underlying tooth.
- Will insurance cover porcelain veneers?
- Because veneers are usually considered a cosmetic treatment, many insurance plans provide limited or no coverage. Our team can review your benefits, provide a detailed estimate, and discuss payment options to help make treatment more manageable.
- How do I get started with porcelain veneers?
- Schedule a consultation at Port Road Dental in Fox Point, Wisconsin. We will listen to your concerns, discuss your options, and create a personalized plan to help you achieve a brighter, more confident smile.
