Dental Veneers in Detroit
Thin, tooth-colored shells that change the look of chipped, stained or uneven front teeth.
Veneers are thin, tooth-colored shells bonded to the front of your teeth. They can change the shape, length and shade of teeth that are chipped, worn, stained or uneven.
For smaller fixes, tooth bonding can be a simpler choice: tooth-colored material is shaped right on the tooth in the chair.
Cosmetic work starts with healthy teeth and gums, so your first visit includes an exam. Dr. Karmo will tell you honestly which option makes sense for you.

FAQ
Veneers: Questions, Answered
What is the difference between veneers and bonding?
Veneers are thin shells made to cover the front of a tooth. Bonding uses tooth-colored material shaped directly on the tooth, which can suit smaller chips and gaps. Dr. Karmo will explain which fits your goals.
Do veneers need special care?
Brush and floss as usual and keep your regular visits. Avoid using your teeth to open packages or bite very hard objects.
Can I see what my smile could look like first?
Ask about it at your consultation. Dr. Karmo will talk through shape and shade with you before any work begins.
