What Are Veneers?
Veneers are ultra-thin shells of tooth-colored material that are bonded to the front surface of your teeth to improve their appearance. They’re a popular choice for correcting stained, chipped, misaligned, or unevenly spaced teeth. At Empower Dental, we custom-design each veneer to match your natural teeth and facial symmetry.
Porcelain Veneers: Timeless & Durable
Porcelain veneers are the most durable and natural-looking type of veneer available. They resist staining better than composite materials and closely mimic the light-reflecting qualities of natural enamel. With proper care, porcelain veneers can last 10 to 15 years or more. They’re ideal for patients seeking a long-term, beautiful transformation.
Lumineers: A No-Prep, No-Drill Option
Lumineers are a specific brand of ultra-thin porcelain veneers that require little to no enamel removal. Because they are so thin, Lumineers are often placed without shots or drilling, making them a great option for patients who want a non-invasive way to improve their smile. Despite being thinner, they are still strong and provide a natural appearance.

Porcelain Veneers & Lumineers Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between traditional veneers, porcelain veneers, and Lumineers?
Traditional veneers may involve removing a thin layer of enamel. Porcelain veneers are stronger and more stain-resistant. Lumineers are thinner and require little to no tooth prep.
Is the procedure painful?
No. Most patients report minimal discomfort. For porcelain veneers, local anesthesia may be used. Lumineers often require no anesthesia at all.
How long do veneers last?
Porcelain veneers can last 10–15 years. Lumineers and composite veneers typically last 7–10 years with proper care.
Are veneers stain-resistant?
Porcelain veneers and Lumineers are highly stain-resistant. Composite bonding may stain over time.
Will my teeth be permanently altered?
Porcelain veneers usually require enamel removal, which is not reversible. Lumineers typically don’t require this, offering a reversible solution in many cases.
Can veneers fix crooked teeth?
They can correct the appearance of minor misalignment, though major corrections may require orthodontics.
Will my veneers look natural?
Absolutely. We customize each veneer to match your natural tooth color, shape, and smile profile.
Do you offer sedation for anxious patients?
Yes. We offer various comfort options, including sedation, to ensure your experience is stress-free.
How should I care for my veneers or Lumineers?
Brush and floss regularly, avoid chewing hard objects, and schedule regular cleanings with our team.
