Dental Veneers in San Francisco, CA
Dental veneers are like false fingernails and require little or no tooth reduction. They are the same size and thickness as your own teeth and the color, size, and shape can be changed if so desired. Many times no shots are needed. When applied over the surface of a tooth, they can cover worn tooth enamel, uneven tooth alignment or spacing and chips or cracks. Dental veneers fall into the category of cosmetic dentistry because they create a bright, white smile with beautifully aligned, shapely teeth. Even better, the translucent ceramic quality of today’s veneers provides a more natural look than what’s been available in the past.
Dental veneers are one of the most effective cosmetic dentistry solutions for improving the appearance of your smile. At Union Square Dental Practice, we design custom veneers to enhance the shape, color, and overall balance of your teeth while maintaining a natural look.

What Are Dental Veneers?
In addition to being esthetically pleasing, dental veneers can also serve a functional purpose by protecting the surface of a damaged tooth. In some cases, veneers may replace the need for a dental crown, eliminating the need for more invasive tooth preparation. Because dental veneers are so thin, they might require little-to-no tooth reshaping when bonded onto the tooth. Once veneers are bonded into place, they are relatively strong and durable.
Dental veneers are thin, custom-made shells that are bonded to the front surface of your teeth to improve their appearance. They are commonly made from porcelain or composite materials and are designed to mimic the natural look and translucency of real teeth.
Veneers are often used as part of a smile makeover to correct cosmetic imperfections while preserving as much natural tooth structure as possible.
What Can Dental Veneers Fix?
Dental veneers are commonly used to improve:
- Chipped or cracked teeth
- Discolored or stained teeth
- Gaps between teeth
- Uneven or misshapen teeth
- Mild alignment issues
Veneers provide an effective way to create a more uniform, balanced smile.
