Porcelain Veneers in Holland, MI

Porcelain veneers offer a quick and effective solution for transforming your smile by concealing imperfections, such as crooked, chipped, stained, or decayed teeth. At Christopher Nelis, DDS, we provide custom-crafted porcelain veneers that are bonded to the front of your teeth, enhancing their appearance. Our personalized approach and minimal prep technique allow us to improve the color, size, shape, or length of your teeth, tailored to your specific needs. Our team employs iTero® technology with this treatment for better-fitting veneers and an overall improved patient experience. Schedule an appointment at our Holland, MI office to discover more about porcelain veneers, and determine if they are the right choice for you.

When you've decided on your personalized treatment plan with our dental care team, we will take physical or digital dental impressions. Your porcelain veneers could be produced in our office while you wait, or the impressions could be sent to a dental lab where your custom veneers will be made from high-quality porcelain. Using the precise technology of iTero, we are able to capture measurements of the teeth to create perfectly fitting crowns, bridges, and veneers. This results in restorations that are both aesthetically pleasing and functionally sound. When your veneers are prepared, our dental practitioner, Dr. Chris Nelis or Dr. Nick Racine, will carefully take off a small amount of enamel from your teeth. This allows room for the porcelain veneers and enhances the bond for a more natural outcome that lasts longer. When your veneers are bonded, our dentist may make minor adjustments so that your veneers are comfortable.

Since getting porcelain veneers typically does not require anesthesia, you should be able to continue your daily activities after your appointment. You might experience sensitivity to hot and cold food for a couple of days, but this should subside naturally. Veneers should be cared for like your own natural teeth with daily brushing and flossing. While cosmetic veneers are more stain-resistant compared to your natural teeth, you still need to avoid staining drinks and food to keep your veneers white. To prevent chipping your veneers, you should not chew on hard objects, such as your fingernails or ice. Continue to schedule dental exams and cleanings at Christopher Nelis, DDS so we can monitor the condition of your cosmetic veneers, natural teeth, and general oral health. Our dental professionals will tell you if your cosmetic veneers need to be replaced or repaired.

I can't say enough good things about this practice. From the front staff (scheduling and processing), hygienists, assistants and both docs; they are ALL SUPER friendly, easy going, fun, accommodating, caring, gentle and professional. I'm even using them now for my sleep apnea appliance. They walk you through every step of the process and impeccable communication. Really the best around!

Dr. Nelis came as a highly recommended referral from my former dentist in Illinois when he learned I was moving to Holland. I've been a patient of Dr Nelis for eight years now and couldn't be happier. I recently underwent extensive dental work with Dr Nelis and the results are amazing! He didn't just restore my oral health and smile, but confidence along with it. Dr. Nelis clearly takes pride in his work with his skilled attention to detail, extra time spent prepping/doing the work, and making sure to listen and address any questions/concerns. Dr Nelis employs a great crew of dental technicians and front office staff who went above and beyond to make sure I was comfortable during the procedures. There is a sense of family amongst the hard working employees who don't hesitate to help one another out. We all shared a lot of laughs which really helped calm my nerves. Dr. Nelis is a great dentist who truly enjoys what he does.

Porcelain veneers may be used to rapidly cover stains and chips in your enamel, improve worn-down or misaligned teeth, and fix teeth that are abnormally spaced or shaped. At Christopher Nelis, DDS, your veneers will be custom-made to fit comfortably over your teeth for an attractive and natural look. During your consultation with Dr. Nelis or Dr. Racine, our team will listen to your objectives and concerns so we can customize your procedure. We will also see whether you're a good candidate for porcelain veneers by assessing the total health of your mouth. You shouldn't have symptoms of periodontal disease or routinely grind your teeth and clench your jaw (called bruxism).

What is the best way to clean my porcelain veneers?

Just like your natural teeth, porcelain veneers should be brushed daily using a soft-bristled toothbrush and nonabrasive toothpaste. You can also use mouthwash, floss, or a water pick to ensure your veneers and gums are thoroughly cleaned. However, be careful not to overbrush or use any harsh products, like whitening treatments, without first checking with the team at Christopher Nelis, DDS in Holland, MI.

Do porcelain veneers damage your teeth?

When placed by an experienced dental team, such as the one at Christopher Nelis, DDS in Holland, MI, porcelain veneers should not damage your teeth. Problems arise when veneers are applied improperly, which could result in the dentist removing too much enamel. This can leave teeth more vulnerable to breaking or other types of damage.

How long can porcelain veneers last?

Porcelain veneers typically last between 10 – 15 years if they are well cared for. Maintaining a good oral hygiene routine, including daily brushing and flossing, is essential to prolong their lifespan. Additionally, it's important to avoid foods that are especially hard, sticky, or chewy to protect your veneers from damage.

Get the confidence of a beautiful smile with personalized porcelain veneers at Christopher Nelis, DDS. With a variety of treatment options to meet your goals, Dr. Nelis, Dr. Racine, and our skilled team can help you quickly improve the look of your smile with veneers.

How should I clean my porcelain veneers?
Like your organic teeth, you can use a soft-bristled toothbrush and toothpaste to clean your veneers on a daily basis. You may also use mouthwash, floss, or a water pick to give a deeper clean that also targets your gumline. Beware of brushing too much or using harsh chemicals, like whitening agents, without first consulting your dentist.

Will getting porcelain veneers ruin your teeth?
In general, getting porcelain veneers from a skilled practitioner, such as ours at Pipe Creek Dental Center, should not harm your teeth. The potential for damage occurs when the veneers are not applied properly. In these cases, the dentist may remove too much enamel, weakening your teeth and making them more susceptible to breakage and damage.

How long will porcelain veneers last?
If properly applied and maintained, your porcelain veneers should last anywhere from 10 — 15 years. We recommend keeping on top of your daily oral hygiene routine, like flossing and brushing, to help extend your veneers' lifetime. In addition, avoiding hard, sticky, or chewy foods will be a best practice to keep in mind for your new teeth.
