Transform Your Teeth With a Minimally Invasive Solution
A study by the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry showed that more than one in three adults thinks an unattractive smile makes a person look less attractive. So, if you don’t love the way your smile looks, it’s time to do something about it. Similar to a dental crown, veneers can conceal many kinds of smile problems. However, a veneer requires less alteration of your healthy tooth structure than a crown. Dr. Shook typically removes only a bit of enamel from teeth to prepare them for veneers.
With this cosmetic procedure, Dr. Shook will:
- Examine your teeth and discuss your smile goals
- Show you how veneers can change the shape, size, and/or color of your teeth
- Determine which veneers are right for you, either porcelain or e.max ceramic veneers
- Take careful measurements of your teeth with digital impressions
- Send them to a top dental lab to create your customized veneers
- Securely attach them to your teeth in your next appointment
- Ensure you’re happy with how they look and feel
You’ll be able to show off your veneers for years with proper oral care practices. With over 20 years of experience and advanced education in cosmetic dentistry, Dr. Shook can help you achieve the smile of your dreams.

Common Questions About Dental Veneers
That depends on a number of factors, including the type of veneers you choose, your overall oral health, your diet, and how well you care for your teeth. With proper care, our durable and stain-resistant veneers typically last at least a decade and sometimes many years more than that.
Veneers are ultra-thin dental restorations that completely cover the front of your teeth. They are made using impressions of your teeth to ensure a perfect fit. When securely bonded in place, they can change the size, shape, and color of your teeth. This makes them one of our most versatile cosmetic treatments.
Your dental veneers treatment should be completely comfortable. For some types of veneers, we will need to remove a small amount of tooth enamel to prepare the teeth for veneers. In these cases, we can use a local anesthetic to ensure you don’t experience any discomfort. The process of actually applying the veneers to your teeth is completely pain-free.
