A veneer is a slim covering of porcelain or composite resin placed on the front surface of a tooth. At Pier Dental, Dr. Brittany Pierpont creates veneers for Redington Shores patients who want even color, better shape or a narrower gap.
We never rush this choice. The first visit is for listening, looking and talking honestly about what will and will not work.
Your veneer visits, step by step
Once we agree on a plan, a small amount of enamel is removed from each tooth and impressions are taken for the lab. Your veneers are crafted to blend with the teeth beside them.
Bonding day brings the final fit, with adjustments to comfort and bite. You will know the sequence before the first tooth is touched.

Crowns for a tooth that needs more
Where a tooth is badly worn or heavily restored, a veneer may not give it enough protection. A full crown surrounds the tooth and restores both strength and appearance.
Dr. Pierpont will explain which of the two fits the tooth and why. Sometimes the answer sits between them.

Brightening first, then deciding
If color is the main complaint, whitening might solve it without reshaping anything. We can supply custom trays, an LED kit or stronger strips to use at home.
Many patients whiten first and then reassess. It is a low-commitment way to see how much a lighter shade changes the picture.
