Porcelain Veneers in Newport Beach, CA

Porcelain veneers are ultra-thin custom shells bonded to the front of your teeth to correct chips, gaps, discoloration, and shape irregularities. At Newport Dental Arts, Dr. Russell Kelly designs each veneer using digital scanning and an in-house lab for a natural, long-lasting result.

Why Choose Porcelain Veneers?

  • Correct chips, cracks, and worn edges

  1. Dr. Kelly examines your teeth and discusses your smile goals.
  2. A small amount of enamel is prepared to make room for the veneer.

  4. A temporary veneer protects the tooth while your custom veneer is made.
  5. Dr. Kelly bonds and adjusts the permanent veneer for a precise fit.

How Long Do Veneers Last?
