Veneers in Tucson, AZ
Enhance Your Smile with Customized Porcelain Veneers
Veneers at Ironwood Dental offer a minimally invasive way to correct chips, gaps, stains, and slight misalignment for a naturally enhanced smile. Serving patients across Tucson, Oro Valley, Marana, Casas Adobes, and Catalina Foothills, we craft custom porcelain veneers using advanced techniques to deliver results that look and feel like your natural teeth—only better.

What Are Veneers?
Veneers are ultra-thin shells, typically made from porcelain, that are bonded to the front surfaces of your teeth. Each veneer is crafted to match the size, shape, and shade that best complements your smile.
They can address a wide range of cosmetic concerns, including:
- Stained or discolored teeth that don’t respond to whitening
- Worn, chipped, or broken teeth
- Gaps between teeth
- Uneven, misshapen, or slightly misaligned teeth
- Teeth with surface flaws or minor cracks
Porcelain is highly durable and stain-resistant, making it an ideal material for long-lasting aesthetic improvements.
The Veneer Placement Process
Getting veneers at Ironwood Dental typically involves several carefully planned steps:
- Consultation – We assess your goals, evaluate your oral health, and determine if veneers are the best option for your case.
- Digital Design – Using digital scanning technology, we create a preview of your expected outcome, allowing you to visualize your new smile.
- Tooth Preparation – A small amount of enamel is gently removed from the front of the teeth to make room for the veneers.
- Temporary Veneers – We place custom temporaries while your permanent veneers are being fabricated in a high-end dental lab.
- Final Placement – Once ready, the final veneers are checked for fit and appearance, then bonded securely in place.
This multi-step process is designed to ensure your results are as natural, balanced, and functional as they are beautiful.
Are Veneers Right for You?
Ideal candidates for veneers:
- Have healthy teeth and gums
- Are looking to improve the appearance of their front teeth
- Are not grinding or clenching excessively (or are willing to wear a nightguard)
- Want a long-term cosmetic solution
If veneers aren’t the right option, we may recommend alternatives such as dental bonding, teeth whitening, or a complete smile makeover tailored to your goals.
Caring for Your Veneers
Porcelain veneers are low-maintenance but still require daily care and regular checkups to keep them looking their best. After treatment, we recommend:
- Brushing and flossing daily with non-abrasive toothpaste
- Avoiding hard foods that could crack veneers, like ice or popcorn kernels
- Wearing a nightguard if you grind your teeth
- Visiting us for routine cleanings and exams every six months
With proper care, your veneers can last 10–15 years or longer.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are veneers permanent?
Veneers are considered a permanent cosmetic treatment because a small amount of enamel is removed during placement. While the veneers themselves may eventually need replacing, the tooth will always need some form of coverage once altered.
Will my veneers look fake?
Not at all. Porcelain mimics the translucency of natural enamel, and your veneers are custom-designed to match your existing teeth or preferred look. The result is a seamless, realistic appearance.
How many veneers will I need?
It depends on your goals. Some patients only need one or two veneers to address specific issues, while others choose a full set across the upper teeth for a complete smile upgrade.
Can I whiten my veneers?
No. Porcelain does not respond to whitening agents. That’s why we recommend teeth whitening before your veneer placement so we can match your final restorations to your brightest natural tooth shade.
Do veneers require special care?
Veneers don’t require special products, but good oral hygiene and regular dental visits are essential to protect your underlying teeth and keep your veneers looking their best.
