A veneer is a thin shell bonded to the front of a tooth to change its color, shape or size. Dr. Brittany Pierpont offers porcelain and composite veneers at Pier Dental for patients in Boca Ciega and the surrounding beach towns.
Veneers can fix several things at once: staining, chips, wear, small gaps and teeth that sit slightly crooked. We begin by asking what you want, then show how veneers compare with simpler choices.
From consult to bonded veneer
Treatment starts with an exam and a conversation. A little enamel is removed, impressions are taken, and the finished veneers are bonded to your teeth.
Dr. Pierpont checks color, fit and bite before you leave, so there are no surprises later.

Considering bonding instead
Bonding is the lighter cousin: composite resin shaped on the tooth, often finished in a single visit. It may fit if only a tooth or two needs work.
We will tell you if bonding is enough. If it is not, veneers can be the better long-term answer.

Crowns for teeth that need strength
Some teeth are too damaged for a thin veneer. A crown covers the whole tooth and gives it back strength as well as appearance.
Choosing between them is part of the consult.
