A smile you feel good about can change how you carry yourself every single day. If chips, gaps, or stubborn discoloration have been holding yours back, dental veneers may be the simplest way to get the look you want. At Anchor Dental in West Portal, San Francisco, Dr. Esra Yener and our team design veneers that look and feel completely natural.
Here's what you should know.
What are dental veneers?
Veneers are thin, custom-made porcelain shells that bond to the front surface of your teeth. Because each one is crafted to match your smile, they blend in naturally rather than looking artificial or "done."
They're one of the most versatile options in cosmetic dentistry, and they can transform a smile in just a few visits.
What veneers can fix
Veneers are a great fit if you want to improve:
- Chips and small cracks on otherwise healthy teeth
- Gaps and minor spacing you'd rather not close with braces
- Discoloration and stubborn stains that don't respond to whitening
- Worn or slightly uneven teeth that make your smile look tired
If any of these sound familiar, a consultation is the best way to find out whether veneers are right for you.
Minimal enamel removal, natural results
One of the things patients appreciate most is how conservative the process is. Most of the time we remove only a very minimal amount of enamel, and in some cases none at all. That means more of your natural tooth stays intact while you gain a brighter, more even smile.
Thanks to local anesthetic where needed, the process is comfortable and virtually pain-free.
What the process looks like at Anchor Dental
Getting veneers with us is straightforward and unhurried:
- Book your consultation online, by phone, or by email.
- Meet with our team to talk through the smile you want and review your veneer options.
- Design and fit your veneers. Your custom porcelain veneers are crafted and placed over a small number of visits, with your comfort in mind at every step.
Before any treatment begins, we'll walk you through your options and give you a clear, transparent quote. No surprises.
How much do veneers cost?
The cost of veneers depends on how many you need and the materials used, so there isn't a single price that fits everyone. Because veneers are usually considered cosmetic, they aren't typically covered by insurance. We'll go over everything openly at your consultation and give you a clear quote up front.
