Stain Resistance
Dental porcelain does not absorb pigment the way natural enamel does, so coffee, tea, and red wine have far less effect on the finished shade.

Understanding Your Treatment
What Are Veneers?
A veneer is a wafer-thin shell of porcelain bonded to the front of a tooth, standing in for natural enamel while correcting color, shape, size, and spacing at the same time. Dr. Dylan Kovar plans these cases with iTero scanning and 3D design, so the proposed result is visible before treatment begins. Dr. Werner Visagé evaluates gum health and tissue shape when the gumline factors into how the finished smile reads.
The Benefits
The Benefits of Veneers
Natural Translucency
Porcelain catches and scatters light much the way enamel does, which is what keeps a well-made veneer from reading as a flat block of white.
Multiple Corrections
Color, shape, size, and small gaps are all addressed in one treatment rather than requiring separate procedures spread across several months.
Minimal Removal
Modern veneers are thin enough that only a sliver of enamel comes off, and in some cases they bond directly onto the existing tooth surface.
The Process
Our Step-by-Step Process
From your first exam to the final result, here's exactly what to expect — calm, clear, and never rushed.
Schedule Appointment- 01
Smile Consult
You describe what bothers you, and Dr. Kovar photographs and scans the teeth to establish what veneers can realistically accomplish in your case.
- 02
Design Preview
A digital design shows the proposed shape, length, and proportion, which is the point where you approve the direction before anything is prepared.
- 03
Enamel Prep
A very thin layer of enamel is removed where it is needed so the porcelain sits flush, and sometimes almost none of it has to come off at all.
- 04
Temporary Set
An iTero scan goes to the lab while provisional veneers protect the teeth, letting you test the new shape in daily life for a couple of weeks.
- 05
Final Bonding
Each veneer is tried in, checked against your face and the neighboring teeth, then bonded permanently once the fit and shade both read right.
Is It Right for You?
Signs You May Need Veneers
-
Deep Staining — Discoloration sits inside the tooth rather than on the surface, which is why professional whitening has moved the shade very little for you.
-
Chipped Edges — The biting edges of your front teeth have chipped or worn unevenly, leaving a jagged line that shows every single time you smile widely.
-
Uneven Spacing — Small gaps or slight overlaps make the front teeth look irregular, and full orthodontic treatment feels like more than you want to take on.
-
Mismatched Shapes — One or two teeth are noticeably shorter, narrower, or differently shaped than the ones beside them, which pulls the eye straight over to them.
Our Difference
Preview Before Any Prep
You approve a digital design of the proposed result before a single tooth is touched, so nobody here is guessing at what you actually wanted.
Enamel Preserved Where Possible
Preparation is kept to the minimum that the porcelain requires, because enamel removed for a veneer is structure that never grows back later.
Grinding Addressed First
Clenching and grinding break veneers, so that habit gets identified and managed before the porcelain goes on rather than after one has cracked.
Porcelain Chosen For Translucency
Material and shade are selected for how they handle light beside your own teeth, which is the whole difference between natural and obvious.

How long do veneers last?
Ten to fifteen years is a common range for porcelain, and many last longer with good hygiene and a stable bite. Grinding is the most frequent reason one fails early, which is why that gets addressed before treatment starts.
Do veneers require removing tooth enamel?
Usually a very thin layer comes off so the porcelain sits flush against the neighboring teeth. Some cases need almost no preparation at all, and Dr. Kovar will tell you which category yours falls into before you decide.
Will my veneers stain over time?
Porcelain resists staining far better than natural enamel, so the veneers themselves hold their shade. The natural teeth around them can still darken, which is why whitening is usually sequenced before veneers rather than after.
What is the cost of veneers in Carmichael, CA?
Cost depends on how many teeth are involved and the laboratory work each case requires, so you receive a written figure before anything is prepared. Cherry, CareCredit, and in-house financing are available, and Marconi Dental Plan members receive 30% off cash fees.
Does insurance cover veneers in Carmichael, CA?
Dental plans treat veneers as cosmetic, so coverage is rare unless a tooth is being restored after damage. We verify your benefits either way and lay out the financing options before treatment is scheduled.
