Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Are no prep veneers really non-invasive?
A: Yes—in most cases, no tooth structure is removed. We may perform slight reshaping (“near no prep”) if needed for ideal fit and esthetics.
Q: Are they stronger or weaker than traditional veneers?
A: When bonded correctly, no prep veneers are extremely strong. Proper case selection and bonding technique are essential.
Q: Can they fix gaps and crooked teeth?
A: Yes, they can close small gaps and create the illusion of straighter teeth—though Invisalign may be better for major crowding.
Q: How long do no prep veneers last?
A: With proper care and regular dental visits, they can last 10–15 years or more.
Q: Will they feel bulky?
A: With expert lab design, they feel smooth and natural. Most patients adjust within a few days.
Q: What if one veneer chips or breaks?
A: Repairs are often possible. Wearing a night guard protects against damage.
Q: Are no prep veneers the same as Lumineers?
A: No—we use modern, ultra-thin ceramic systems that offer superior esthetics and fit compared to older products like Lumineers.
