The Art of a Perfect Smile
A radiant smile is often considered a key element of confidence and overall well-being. Yet, many people struggle with cosmetic dental concerns that prevent them from achieving their desired smile. Discoloration, chips, cracks, gaps, and misalignment—these imperfections can significantly impact a person's self-esteem and social interactions.
Fortunately, modern cosmetic dentistry offers transformative solutions like dental veneers. Here at The Art of Dental Wellness in Beverly Hills, Dr. Kerri Hill, a leading implant and cosmetic dentist, specializes in crafting beautiful and enduring smiles using porcelain veneers.
Dental veneers are wafer-thin shells custom-made from dental porcelain or composite resin. They are bonded to the front surface of teeth, effectively masking imperfections and creating a flawlessly uniform smile.

During your initial consultation, Dr. Hill will meticulously examine your teeth, discuss your desired aesthetic goals, and answer any questions you may have. X-rays and digital impressions may be taken to create a personalized treatment plan.
In some cases, a minimal amount of enamel needs to be removed from the front surface of your teeth to accommodate the veneers and ensure a proper fit. This is done using a gentle and precise technique.
To protect your teeth and maintain your smile aesthetics while your permanent veneers are crafted, temporary veneers may be placed.
Dr. Hill collaborates with a skilled dental lab technician to design and fabricate your custom porcelain veneers. These veneers will be meticulously crafted to match the size, shape, and color of your surrounding teeth for a seamless and natural look.
Once your permanent veneers are ready, Dr. Hill will carefully bond them to the front surface of your teeth using a powerful dental adhesive. Throughout this process, comfort is a priority, and local anesthesia can be administered to ensure a pain-free experience.
Dr. Hill will meticulously evaluate the fit, color, and overall aesthetics of your veneers. Minor adjustments can be made at this stage to achieve optimal results. You'll then have the opportunity to examine your new smile and ensure you're completely satisfied.
With proper care and maintenance, porcelain veneers can last for a remarkable 10 years or even longer. They offer a multitude of long-term benefits, including:
