Prepless veneers, step by step
Here’s how a prepless veneer smile makeover works at the practice.
Find out if you qualify
Not everyone is a candidate. Teeth with damage or older dental work often need traditional porcelain veneers to strengthen them, so your customized smile evaluation starts by checking whether a minimal-preparation approach suits your teeth.
Plan the most conservative veneer
Dr. Haywood always chooses the thinnest veneer and the most conservative approach. If teeth need to move into a better position first, Invisalign can shift them before any instrument touches them.
Receive your custom porcelain
Each veneer is customized exclusively for you in the USA, blending colors and translucencies with the small details that make a tooth look like a tooth. Your new smile can be finished in as little as 1–2 weeks.

answered
A porcelain veneer is like a new layer of enamel on the face and edge of a tooth, improving both its beauty and strength. Prepless, or minimal-preparation, veneers preserve most if not all of your natural enamel while creating the new smile you want.
They can close gaps and spaces, brighten teeth without whitening, straighten teeth without braces and strengthen damaged or chipped teeth without crowning them. They are also more durable than cosmetic bonding. Compare dental bonding.
Your smile can be finished in as little as 1–2 weeks. Your exact timeline depends on your plan, which is mapped out at your customized smile evaluation.
Dental veneers are made of the same materials, and names like Lumineers, DURAthins and DaVincis are mostly marketing for the thinnest veneers. For ideal candidates who need no tooth preparation, the practice uses the same materials and methods, with every veneer customized exclusively for you.
Many patients have damaged teeth or older dental work that needs more extensive treatment, so traditional porcelain veneers are still the majority of veneer cases. If you qualify for a minimal-preparation approach, your smile evaluation will show it. See traditional porcelain veneers.
Thin veneers cannot solve every problem. A veneer may need to be more opaque or thicker in areas where the tooth underneath is very dark or damaged, and Invisalign can move teeth into the most desirable position before treatment. Invisalign is often combined with veneer makeovers.
Prepless veneers are a demanding procedure that takes experience, training and an exceptional team, and not all dentists can or should provide them. The brand name doesn’t make a smile beautiful; the skill and artistic vision behind each custom design does.
All veneers are made in the USA by a master ceramist, using US-certified laboratories chosen for their ability to customize and fabricate exactly what suits each patient.
Fees are set per tooth and depend on your smile plan, so your fee is quoted after your customized smile evaluation. Financing through CareCredit and Cherry can help spread the cost. See financing options.
