Transform Your Smile with Natural-Looking Results
If you’re looking to correct stained, chipped, uneven, or misshapen teeth, porcelain veneers offer a long-lasting and beautifully natural solution. At Core Dentistry, we specialize in custom cosmetic restorations that enhance your smile while preserving your natural tooth structure.
Led by Dr. Elizabeth Alexander, DMD FAGD and Dr. Erika Burley, DMD, our team in Fort Mill is proud to help patients achieve stunning transformations using durable, stain-resistant porcelain veneers.
What Are Porcelain Veneers?
Porcelain veneers are thin, custom-made shells that are bonded to the front surface of your teeth to improve their appearance. Crafted from high-quality dental porcelain, veneers mimic the translucency and color of natural enamel while correcting a variety of aesthetic flaws.
Porcelain veneers are ideal for addressing:
- Stubborn stains or discoloration
- Minor chips or cracks
- Uneven or worn tooth edges
- Small gaps between teeth
- Mild crowding or misalignment
- Teeth that are misshapen or poorly proportioned
Each veneer is custom-designed to match your facial features, skin tone, and smile goals, ensuring a result that looks completely natural and unique to you.
Our Veneer Process at Core Dentistry
Achieving a beautiful smile with veneers is a multi-step process designed to ensure comfort, precision, and lasting results.
- Smile Consultation
We begin with a personalized cosmetic consultation to determine whether veneers are the right option for your goals. This includes digital imaging and a discussion of your desired outcome. - Tooth Preparation
A small amount of enamel is gently removed from the front of the tooth to create space for the veneer. We take impressions using digital scanning technology for maximum precision. - Temporary Veneers
While your custom veneers are being crafted, we place temporary ones to protect your teeth and preview your new smile. - Final Placement
Once your porcelain veneers are ready, we bond them permanently using a high-strength dental adhesive, then make any final adjustments for fit and comfort.
Why Choose Porcelain Veneers?
Porcelain veneers are one of the most popular treatments in cosmetic dentistry because they combine durability with natural beauty. Benefits include:
- Highly resistant to staining from coffee, wine, and tobacco
- Long-lasting results with proper care (10–15+ years)
- Minimally invasive compared to full crowns
- Ability to correct multiple cosmetic concerns at once
- A faster path to a dramatic smile transformation than orthodontics or whitening alone
Veneers are also frequently used as part of a smile makeover to achieve a comprehensive improvement in the appearance of your teeth.

FAQs About Porcelain Veneers
Are porcelain veneers permanent?
Veneers are considered a permanent treatment because a small amount of enamel is removed from your teeth. However, they can last 10–15 years or more with proper care before needing replacement.
Do veneers look natural?
Yes. Porcelain mimics the way natural teeth reflect light, and each veneer is custom-made to match the shape, size, and color of your existing teeth. Most people won’t be able to tell you have veneers.
Are veneers painful to get?
Most patients experience little to no discomfort during the veneer process. We use local anesthesia when needed and provide temporary veneers to protect your teeth between visits.
Can I eat normally with veneers?
Yes. Once your permanent veneers are in place, you can eat most foods. However, we recommend avoiding chewing on hard objects (like ice or pens) to protect your veneers from damage.
Do veneers require special care?
Not at all. Simply maintain your regular oral hygiene routine—brushing, flossing, and visiting us for routine cleanings and exams—to keep your veneers and surrounding teeth healthy.
