Transform Your Smile with Custom Dental Veneers in Las Vegas
Are you hiding your smile because of chipped, discolored, or misaligned teeth? At Amazing Smile Dentistry in Las Vegas, we specialize in creating stunning smiles with our custom dental veneers. Our expert team, led by Dr. Joseph Gelo, offers both porcelain and composite veneers to address a wide range of cosmetic dental concerns while preserving your natural tooth structure.
What Are Dental Veneers and How Can They Help?
Dental veneers are ultra-thin, custom-fabricated facings designed to cover the front surface of your teeth. They provide a conservative yet highly effective solution for teeth with imperfections that can’t be corrected with whitening but don’t require full coverage crowns.
Veneers can dramatically improve teeth that are:
- Chipped or cracked
- Gapped or unevenly spaced
- Slightly crooked or misaligned
- Discolored or stained beyond whitening capabilities
- Worn down or misshapen
- Uneven in size or length
With veneers, we can transform the color, shape, size, and length of your teeth for a naturally beautiful smile makeover. Whether you need to enhance a single tooth or multiple front teeth, veneers offer a minimally invasive solution with stunning results.
Types of Dental Veneers at Amazing Smile Dentistry
At our Las Vegas dental practice, we offer two primary types of veneers to suit your specific needs, timeline, and budget:
Porcelain Veneers: The Gold Standard in Cosmetic Dentistry
Porcelain veneers, also known as porcelain laminates, are our most popular option for patients seeking long-lasting, natural-looking results. These premium veneers are crafted from the highest grade of dental ceramics and offer significant advantages:
- Require minimal preparation of your natural tooth structure
- Completed in just a few dental visits from start to finish
- Reflect light similarly to natural tooth enamel for a truly authentic appearance
- Exceptional strength and durability, lasting many years with proper care
- Highly resistant to staining and discoloration from coffee, wine, and other pigmented foods
- Biocompatible with surrounding gum tissue for optimal periodontal health
The porcelain veneer process typically involves:
- An initial consultation to discuss your smile goals
- Minimal preparation of your teeth (usually less than 0.5mm of enamel)
- Digital impressions using our advanced technology
- Placement of temporary veneers while your custom veneers are crafted
- Bonding of your permanent porcelain veneers for a stunning new smile
Composite Veneers: Same-Day Smile Transformation
For patients seeking a more affordable alternative or same-day results, our composite veneers provide an excellent option. During this procedure, Dr. Gelo artfully applies and shapes tooth-colored composite resin directly to the front surfaces of your teeth. This technique allows for:
- Complete treatment in a single visit to our Las Vegas office
- No need for temporary veneers or laboratory fabrication
- Easy repairs if damaged
- More economical option compared to porcelain
- Preservation of more natural tooth structure
- Beautiful, immediate results
While composite veneers may not be as stain-resistant or durable as their porcelain counterparts, they can still offer lasting beauty with proper care and maintenance. Many patients enjoy their composite veneers for 5-7 years before considering replacement or upgrading to porcelain.
The Veneer Consultation Process
Your journey to a perfect smile begins with a comprehensive smile makeover consultation. During this appointment, Dr. Gelo will:
- Evaluate your oral health to ensure you’re a good candidate for veneers
- Discuss your specific cosmetic goals and expectations
- Examine your facial features, skin tone, and existing teeth to determine the ideal shape, size, and color for your veneers
- Present different veneer options (porcelain vs. composite) with their respective benefits
- Create a customized treatment plan designed to achieve your desired smile
- Address any questions or concerns about the procedure, maintenance, or financing options
Our detailed assessment ensures that your final results will be not only beautiful but also functional and appropriate for your unique dental situation.
Caring for Your New Veneers
Whether you choose porcelain or composite veneers, proper maintenance will help maximize their lifespan and keep your smile looking its best. We recommend:
- Brushing twice daily with a non-abrasive toothpaste
- Flossing daily to maintain gum health around your veneers
- Wearing a nightguard if you tend to grind or clench your teeth
- Avoiding using your teeth as tools (opening packages, biting nails, etc.)
- Limiting consumption of staining foods and beverages (especially important for composite veneers)
- Attending regular dental checkups and cleanings at Amazing Smile Dentistry
With appropriate care, porcelain veneers can last 10-15 years or longer, while composite veneers typically need replacement after 5-7 years.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much do veneers cost in Las Vegas?
The cost of veneers varies depending on the type (porcelain or composite), number of teeth being treated, and complexity of your case. Porcelain veneers typically range from $800-$2,500 per tooth, while composite veneers are generally more affordable. We offer various financing options to help make your dream smile accessible.
Do veneers damage your natural teeth?
Veneers require minimal preparation of your natural tooth structure, especially compared to full crowns. Modern techniques preserve as much enamel as possible. While the process is not reversible, it is considered conservative and does not damage the health of your teeth when properly performed.
How long do veneers last?
Porcelain veneers typically last 10-15 years or longer with proper care, while composite veneers generally last 5-7 years before needing replacement or touch-ups.
Are veneers painful to get?
Most patients experience little to no discomfort during or after the veneer procedure. We use local anesthesia during preparation, and many patients don’t require any pain medication afterward.
Can I still get cavities with veneers?
Yes, the underlying tooth structure can still develop decay, especially at the margins of the veneer. That’s why maintaining good oral hygiene and regular dental checkups remains essential.
