PORCELAIN VENEERS IN NYC | SHINE BRIGHT WITH A CONFIDENT SMILE

Want a smile that turns heads in NYC?

You’re not alone. Many New Yorkers want to feel more confident about their teeth—whether it’s for a first date, a high-stakes meeting, or your next close-up. At Shine Dentistry, we help you achieve a smile that reflects your true self with custom-crafted porcelain veneers made for NYC life.

What are porcelain veneers?

Porcelain veneers are ultra-thin, custom-crafted shells that bond to the front of your natural teeth to enhance their shape, color, and alignment. Think of them as your smile’s red carpet look—refined, elegant, and unmistakably you.

Who are veneers for?

If you’re dealing with:

Dr. Johnston provides a personalized maintenance plan to protect your new brilliance.

Chipped or cracked teeth

Stains that whitening can’t fix

Uneven or worn edges

Gaps between teeth

Mild misalignment

…porcelain veneers may be the perfect solution—especially if your teeth are structurally healthy but cosmetically holding you back.

Frequently asked questions about porcelain veneers

  • How do I care for porcelain veneers?

    Porcelain veneers are low-maintenance but require consistent care to look their best. To protect your veneers:

    • Brush and floss daily, just like natural teeth
    • Use a non-abrasive toothpaste
    • Wear a nightguard if you grind your teeth
    • Schedule dental cleanings every 6 months

    With proper care, your veneers can last 10–15+ years without discoloration or damage.

  • Why is now a good time to get porcelain veneers in NYC?

    Whether you’re preparing for a wedding, a new job, or a fresh start, porcelain veneers offer a fast, powerful way to enhance your appearance. In a city as image-conscious as New York, a confident smile opens doors. If you’ve been hiding your teeth, now is the time to invest in a look you’ll love—and that people will notice.

  • How long does the porcelain veneer process take?

    Most patients complete their veneer transformation in 2–4 visits over 2–3 weeks. This includes your initial consultation, digital smile design, temporary veneers, and final placement. At Shine Dentistry, we tailor each phase to your schedule and goals for a seamless, elevated experience.

  • Are porcelain veneers permanent?

    Yes—porcelain veneers are considered a permanent cosmetic procedure because a small amount of enamel is removed to place them. However, they may need to be replaced after 10–15 years, depending on your oral habits and overall care.
