If you are tired of covering your mouth and hiding your teeth, porcelain veneers from the experts at Samaritan Dental Arts can extinguish that insecurity and self-consciousness by transforming your smile. Many treatments can make your teeth look good, but not all help you maintain healthy teeth. Dr. Zabolian and his team can provide you with safe, effective porcelain veneers that will last for years. These veneers are thin layers of tooth-colored porcelain that can leave you with a great looking smile while also acting as a protective layer that helps keep your teeth from further harm. This is definitely a win-win for those looking for a quick smile makeover that protects and brightens their smile well into the future.
These veneers help keep your teeth in good health, and having teeth that are healthy can ensure that you keep that smile bright for years to come. Typically, lasting anywhere from 10 to 30 years, porcelain veneers are semi-permanent and provide a number of benefits to your smile. Porcelain veneers are custom made to fit your teeth and work to dramatically improve the overall appearance of your smile. Think of it as having a skilled artisan sculpt a new smile to lay atop your old one.
Many people choose porcelain veneers because of their ability to resist stains, however there are a number of reasons why people choose veneers. First and foremost, you don’t have to take extra special care with them like you do some other solutions. You just treat them as you do your normal teeth. Secondly, they look natural. Many dentists can even have trouble spotting the veneers unless they know to look for them. They also help to protect against broken or chipped teeth, while repairing ones that were previously damaged. They can also be used by skilled dentists like Dr. Zabolian to cover up small gaps between teeth without the use of the straightening effects of Invisalign or traditional braces and can even work to straighten misaligned teeth.
We think porcelain veneers are a great alternative to living with stained, damaged, or misaligned teeth. No one wants to be ashamed of their smile, and with these veneers applied by our cosmetic dental experts, you can be confident and let your smile shine. We want you to have smile you can be proud of, and if you have damaged or yellowed teeth, porcelain veneers are likely just the thing to get you there.
Porcelain veneers affix directly to the front of your teeth, providing a protective layer that also looks natural. If you are considering veneers, you should understand that good candidates for this procedure should have a decent amount of healthy tooth enamel. The dentist will need to remove a thin layer of enamel first in order to attach the porcelain veneers. In addition, you should already have good oral and gum health before having this procedure. This will ensure you get the most out of your smile makeover.

Veneers are best for patients who currently have healthy teeth and gums. If you have some oral
health concerns, you may still get veneers. However, it is best to first resolve other issues like
decay or infections.
In Los Angeles, dental veneers tend to cost between $1,200 and $2,000 per tooth. Final costs
will depend on the materials, preparation treatments, and other individual factors. We provide
each patient with a clear, personalized quote before moving forward with dental veneers.
Modern dental veneers are made from highly durable materials that can last for years. Porcelain
veneers are generally the most common option, offering a balance of durability and aesthetic
quality. For most patients, veneers should last for 10 to 15 years. Maintaining good oral hygiene
practices is the best way to get better longevity out of your treatment.
Well-made veneers should look like natural teeth, only better. We take extra care to ensure that
each veneer looks exactly how you want it, improving your smile without making it look artificial.
Once you get used to your veneers, your treated teeth should feel normal. However, for the first
few days or weeks, you might have a mild increase in sensitivity.
No part of getting your veneers should be painful. When needed, we numb the treatment area to
prevent even minor discomfort. The change in sensitivity in your teeth might feel a little
unpleasant at first. But it should go away after a time.
It tends to take 2 to 4 visits to get dental veneers. It largely depends on whether you need other
treatments beforehand. Depending on your dentist's availability, some steps may be combined,
which would mean fewer visits.
Dental insurance does not cover veneers, as they are a purely cosmetic treatment. However,
that does not mean they are an unimportant treatment. That is why we offer flexible payment
options to help patients get the treatments they need.
