Thin porcelain or composite shells, bonded to the front of your teeth, can change the color and shape of a smile. Pier Dental offers them to patients in Bahia Shores through Dr. Brittany Pierpont, who sizes each one to look natural.
Veneers can cover stains, repair chips and worn edges, close small gaps and even out slightly crooked teeth. We make sure you understand the process before deciding.
The veneer appointment sequence
Your plan starts at a consultation. Next, a small amount of enamel is removed, impressions are taken and the veneers are made to fit, then they are bonded on.
The final visit includes a check of color, fit and bite.

Weighing bonding against veneers
Bonded composite is a gentler approach for a single flaw. It usually finishes in one visit, and it is often more affordable.
We discuss how each option ages, because bonding can stain with time.

Crowns where strength comes first
For a tooth that is weak or heavily restored, a crown may be wiser than a veneer. It covers the whole tooth in porcelain, ceramic or metal.
Choosing the right one is part of your consult.

About Bahia Shores
In 1994, residents voted to shorten the city’s name from St. Petersburg Beach to St. Pete Beach, and the shorter name has stuck. Bahia Shores is a community in the city.
From there to our door at 8351 Blind Pass Rd is about 1.3 miles in a straight line. Pier Dental, family-owned, plans veneers for Bahia Shores patients and neighbors in Pass-A-Grille and Treasure Island.
