Veneers
Dental veneers are ultra-thin, custom-crafted porcelain shells bonded to the front of your teeth to create a naturally aligned, beautifully white smile. At San Juan Family Dentistry, Dr. Leila Khamsei designs each veneer case individually for patients throughout San Juan Capistrano, planning every detail for optimal aesthetics and long-term durability.

Frequently asked questions
Will my veneers look natural?
Yes. Modern dental veneers are crafted to match your natural teeth in color, shape, and light reflection. Dr. Leila takes great care to ensure your veneers complement your facial features and look completely natural.
How long do porcelain veneers last?
With proper care and maintenance, porcelain veneers typically last 15-20 years. Regular dental check-ups and good oral hygiene habits help maximize their longevity.
Will dental veneers start fading over time?
Veneers can fade over time, but they cannot be brightened using whitening strips or treatments. Your dentist can polish the veneers to remove stains and discoloration so you can keep a beautiful smile.
Does getting veneers hurt?
The procedure is typically painless with local anesthesia. Most patients experience minimal to no discomfort during the process, and any mild sensitivity usually resolves within a few days.
Can I drink coffee with veneers?
Porcelain veneers are stain-resistant, so drinking coffee and tea is perfectly fine. Composite resin veneers, however, are more prone to staining from coffee and other foods and drinks.
How many veneers do most patients get?
Most veneer patients choose to have several veneers placed over their top front teeth, since those are most noticeable when smiling. Depending on your bite, this is usually between 6-10 veneers in total. During your consultation at San Juan Family Dentistry, we'll discuss what you'd like your new smile to look like and can review photos of smiles you like to help design your custom treatment.
What are Lumineers and how do they differ from traditional veneers?
Lumineers are ultra-thin, custom-made porcelain veneers that require minimal to no tooth reduction, unlike traditional veneers. This preserves your natural teeth while still providing a beautiful, natural-looking smile.
How much do veneers cost?
Veneer cost varies depending on the type and number of veneers you need, ranging from a few hundred dollars to over $2,000 per tooth. Most porcelain veneer treatments at San Juan Family Dentistry average between $925-$2,500 per tooth. We offer flexible financing options to help make treatment accessible.
How do I care for my veneers?
Care for your veneers the same way you care for your natural teeth: brush and floss regularly, and avoid biting into hard objects that could damage them.
