Porcelain Veneers
What are the qualities of a beautiful smile? Bright and white tooth color, proper tooth shape, and excellent alignment are just a few. If you would like to improve your smile in any of these areas, porcelain veneers could be just what you need.
The results from getting porcelain veneers at Metzger Dentistry are sure to make you smile! We create custom-made porcelain veneers to improve the following characteristics of your teeth:
- Color
- Size and shape
- Spacing and alignment
A porcelain veneer is a thin covering that creates a natural-looking, beautiful new surface for your tooth. The veneer is made of strong porcelain that substitutes for your natural tooth enamel. Veneer porcelain is beautiful and tough, and it last much longer than dental bonding.
Dr. Metzger uses the most advanced dental porcelain technology to create your veneers to look as lifelike as possible. The veneers can be made so thin that they can sometimes be bonded directly onto your existing tooth. In other cases, only a tiny layer of tooth enamel needs to be removed to fit the new porcelain surface.
Don’t wait another day to consider veneers for your beautiful smile. You’ll be convinced when you see some of our before and after cases from Metzger Dentistry.
What to Expect
After consulting with Dr. Metzger about your overall goal with porcelain veneers, this is what you can expect at your appointments:
- Dr. Metzger will minimally contour your teeth and take dental impressions. You will leave with temporary veneers while the lab fabricates your customized veneer.
- Your veers will arrive! They will be tried in and evaluated for fit and aesthetics before they are cemented in place. We will discuss their look and overall fill. You will leave with your new smile!
Dr. Metzger is meticulous and thorough with creating your new smile, and it is an investment that you will reap the rewards from for many, many years.

MINIMALLY INVASIVE VENEERS for failed bonding
VENEERS FOR Bruxism (clenching and grinding)
This is a classic case of attrition and wear caused by nocturnal and daytime bruxism (clinching and grinding). The patient is a 55 year-old male who was concerned about his front teeth “crumbling away”.
Dr. Metzger restored the teeth with Empress Veneers and fabricated a bruxism guard to help prevent further damage to his natural teeth. The veneers were initially placed in 2012, and the photo on the right was taken at a routine cleaning appointment in January 2014.

VENEERS FOR COMPLETE SMILE ENHANCEMENT
Porcelain Veneers are an excellent solution if you would like improve the following characteristics of your teeth:
Color – for stained teeth that have resulted from foods, drinks, smoking, or normal aging. Veneers are available in many shades to match the rest of your natural teeth, from a natural color to a bright white.
Size and Shape – for worn down teeth that have resulted from grinding, or teeth that do not have the shape or size you want. Dr. Metzger can design your veneers with a shape and size that is more flattering for your face.
Spacing and Alignment – for small gaps or problems with alignment. Veneers can be used to make slight corrections, while also improving the color and shape of your teeth.
However, there are some cases where porcelain veneers are not the correct solution for you. For example, you may need orthodontic treatment (braces) for large gaps or significantly misaligned teeth. And If you are missing a lot of your tooth structure from trauma or decay, you are probably a better candidate for a porcelain crown that covers the entire tooth surface.
Dr. Metzger will be happy to discuss options with you, based upon your specific need.
