More 3D printing fun! This patient did not like the “chips” on her front teeth and wanted a more consistent color. Given her young age we opted for no prep 3d printed veneers. designed the files and printed them here on our printer!!
3D Printed Veneers
• Fast fabrication with great chairside control
• More cost-friendly option than porcelain veneers about 1/3 of the cost.
• Ideal for transitional cases, younger patients, or those planning porcelain later
• Not as strong or stain-resistant long-term as porcelain
• We have the digital files so if one ever chips or breaks we can reprint a new one in a matter of minutes!
• Many times can be minimal to no prep!

•Porcelain Veneers
• Gold standard for longevity and esthetics
• Highly stain-resistant + durable
• Best for final restorations and long-term wear
• Higher investment + lab fabrication time.

I’ve prepped lots of cases the last 18 years…
but going through the process of veneers myself taught me more than I ever expected.

As dentists, we design teeth based on so many factors and spend lots of time planning every detail before prep day. We plan everything from margin placement, shade, prep design to final position— but as a patient, you feel the emotional side: the excitement, the vulnerability, the trust, and the joy of seeing your new smile for the first time.

It reminded me how important comfort, communication, and listening truly are.
Grateful for the experience — both as a provider and now as someone who’s sat in the chair, too. 💛🦷 So thankful for and for not firing me as a patient before the process was over😂. I had bonding that kept chipping and staining and just decided to go for it and I’m so thankful I did! I wanted natural but bright and they delivered🙌. Thank you for the video

4 Veneers: Small Change, Big Impact ✨

This smile was enhanced with just four veneers — focusing treatment exactly where it was needed.
Given the right case, 4 veneers can:
✔ Create harmony + symmetry between the front teeth and the back teeth when a big color change is not desired
✔ Close diastemas (spaces) between front teeth
✔ Correct chips, discoloration, and worn edges in the primary esthetic zone
✔ Blend with the patient’s existing smile

Sometimes the most beautiful results come from a focused, minimal approach.
Confidence restored — one smile at a time. 😁🦷✨
