Veneers & Bonding In Avon, CO
What are Veneers & Bonding?
Veneers and bonding are versatile cosmetic treatments that can dramatically transform your smile. Veneers are ultra-thin porcelain shells custom-crafted to cover the front surface of teeth, while bonding uses tooth-colored resin to reshape and enhance teeth. Both procedures can address various aesthetic concerns, from discoloration to minor structural issues, creating a beautifully harmonious smile.

Minimally Invasive

The Veneers & Bonding Treatment Process
Consultation and Planning
Your journey begins with a comprehensive consultation. Dr. Arnold will examine your teeth, discuss your goals, and recommend the best treatment option. We may take photos or digital impressions to aid in treatment planning.
Preparation and Temporaries (for traditional veneers)
If needed, a small amount of enamel is removed to accommodate the veneers. Temporary veneers may be placed while your custom veneers are fabricated. For bonding, minimal preparation is typically required.
Final Placement and Refinement
Your custom veneers are bonded to your teeth, or the bonding material is applied and shaped. Dr. Arnold meticulously refines the shape and color to ensure a perfect fit and natural appearance, leaving you with a stunning new smile.
FAQs
With proper care, porcelain veneers can last 10-15 years or more. Bonding typically lasts 3-10 years, depending on location and habits. Regular dental check-ups and good oral hygiene help maximize the longevity of both treatments.
Traditional veneers are not reversible as they require some enamel removal. However, no-prep veneers and bonding are generally reversible. During your consultation, we'll discuss the pros and cons of each option to help you make an informed decision.
