Porcelain Veneers
Enhance the appearance of your smile and find newfound confidence in just two visits!
Why Choose Porcelain Veneers?
The pain-free path to a natural-looking smile transformation.
Do you have a less than perfect smile? Have you always wanted to improve your appearance but worry about the pain of cosmetic treatments?
Porcelain veneers could be the dental solution to your smile flaws! Thin shells of incredibly durable, tooth-colored porcelain material are bonded to the front of your teeth to transform your smile dramatically.
Veneers are a popular choice for aesthetic improvements since they are a conservative cosmetic treatment to fix common smile deficiencies:
- Gaps and spaces between teeth
- Worn, broken, or cracked teeth
- Misaligned or oddly-shaped teeth
- Stained teeth resistant to teeth whitening due to a root canal or certain medications
The first step towards improving your number one asset is a cosmetic consultation with Dr. Farmer at our Wichita dental office. In only two dental appointments, you could have the youthful-looking, natural smile of your dreams!

Find out how, in just a few weeks, our Wichita cosmetic dentist can change your life forever!
Initial Consultation
Our Wichita cosmetic dentist will sit down with you and discuss your goals, assess your problems, and suggest solutions. Together you will agree on a treatment plan to conceal your cosmetic issues. Your veneer procedure may be part of a smile makeover for a comprehensive treatment.
Preparation
A minuscule amount of enamel is removed from the front surface of your tooth to make room for the new veneer. Impressions are taken and sent to our trusted dental lab for fabrication. We will give you temporary veneers while you wait for your personalized restorations; you'll walk out of our dental office with a fabulous smile!
Your Dream Smile
Your custom-made veneers will be ready in a few weeks. We will permanently bond your veneers with a special dental cement and make any adjustments necessary to leave you with a stunning, new smile!

‘‘Dr. Farmer worked with me to replace the porcelain veneers on my two front teeth that another dentist put on many years ago. I haven't been happy with my smile for years. Dr. Farmer listened to my concerns and expectations and 100% delivered! He worked with the lab to get the shape and color just right, and I love the results.

Anyone with healthy teeth and gums and minor cosmetic smile flaws is a candidate for dental veneer restorations.
Dr. Farmer may recommend porcelain veneers at your cosmetic consultation if he sees:
- Unevenly spaced teeth that create gaps in your smile. Veneers can alleviate the self-conscious feelings you have, keeping you from laughing or grinning in front of others. Fixing large spaces between your teeth can also improve your ability to speak clearly and understandably.
- Teeth that are stained, worn, broken or cracked. Correcting these flaws can make you look younger and healthier!
- Teeth that are misaligned, oddly shaped, or disproportionate. Veneers can lengthen short-looking teeth, widen teeth that are narrow, and rectify the appearance of irregularly shaped teeth.
Choosing a skilled cosmetic dentist will ensure your cosmetic procedure achieves the best results possible.
The total cost of veneers will depend on the number of teeth we're enhancing. Since every smile is unique, this will vary from person to person. Dr. Farmer will assess your situation and develop a treatment plan to deliver the results you desire. You may only need to change the appearance of a couple of teeth or just the upper front teeth that are visible when you smile.
Many patients worry about the cost of porcelain veneers. Dr. Farmer will work with you to achieve your smile goals in a way that is affordable for you. Our Wichita dental office offers a variety of payment options including Care Credit, to finance your cosmetic procedures. We may recommend other cosmetic options, such as cosmetic bonding or teeth whitening, to enhance your smile within budget.
Veneers are made of stain-resistant porcelain material. However, your surrounding teeth will stain over time from smoking and drinking tea, red wine, or coffee. We recommend regular hygiene visits to maintain the health and color of your teeth. Dr. Farmer may recommend teeth whitening before your veneer procedure to give you a bright, youthful look.
The typical lifespan of dental veneers is around 15 years, but they can last much longer depending on certain factors.
- Your personal care. Brushing and flossing your teeth regularly and visiting your dentist for hygiene cleaning appointments twice a year will keep your entire mouth and dental veneers in optimal condition.
- Your lifestyle habits. Habits like grinding, clenching or biting hard objects add additional stress to your veneers and may reduce their lifespan.
- Your choice of cosmetic dentist. The quality of preparation by your dentist will impact how long your veneers will last.
A gentle buffing tool is used to prepare teeth for dental veneers, and the procedure requires only local anesthetic. Dr. Farmer will make sure you are comfortable and relaxed during the process. No anesthetic is necessary during the bonding process. You will leave our dental office with a confident new smile!
