What Are Dental Veneers?
If you've ever wondered how so many of your favorite celebrities seem to have such perfect smiles, then you might be interested in learning more about dental veneers. Similar to dental crowns, veneers are coverings that are placed on the teeth. However, unlike dental crowns, which cover an entire tooth to protect it from damage or decay, veneers are bonded to the front of your teeth to improve the appearance of your smile. At Stellenwerf Dental Studio, we offer durable porcelain veneers for patients who want to mask a wide range of dental imperfections, including chipped teeth, gaps, stains, crooked teeth, and more. Dr. Viviana Stellenwerf works closely with each patient, offering personalized solutions to help everyone attain the smile they want. Whether you want to improve the color, size, shape, or length of your teeth, porcelain veneers offer a no-hassle solution. Schedule an appointment at our Kingwood, TX practice to find out more about dental veneers, and get help deciding if they are appropriate for your goals.
What Can I Expect with My Veneer Treatment?
During your initial visit with Dr. Stellenwerf, we will take impressions of your teeth using our advanced intraoral scanner. These impressions will be sent to a dental lab, which will construct your veneers using high-quality porcelain material. During your return visit, Dr. Stellenwerf will remove a little bit of enamel from the front of your teeth. This both allows space for the porcelain veneers and enhances the bond for a more natural outcome that lasts a long time. Once your porcelain veneers are secured, Dr. Stellenwerf will make small adjustments so that your veneers fit well.
What Are the Benefits of Porcelain Veneers?
If you find yourself trying to hide your smile because of dental imperfections, you might be an ideal candidate for veneers. The benefits of porcelain veneers at our Kingwood, TX practice include:
- Little to no upkeep required (other than your standard oral hygiene habits)
- Improved comfort and look that you can enjoy for a long time
- Minimal enamel erosion is needed for installation
- Prevents discoloration or spotting
Stellenwerf Dental Studio Reviews
Best dentist I’ve been to in a while. Dr. Stellenwerf is excellent!
I never write reviews, but I just have to for Dr. Vivian. I used to absolutely hate going to the dentist—it gave me so much anxiety, and I’d avoid it as long as I could. But meeting her has totally changed that. She’s seriously amazing! Dr. Vivian is the sweetest person ever. She makes you feel so comfortable, like you’re just chatting with a friend instead of sitting in a dentist’s chair. She always takes the time to explain what’s happening and checks in to make sure you’re okay, which is such a relief for someone like me who used to be terrified of dental visits. The whole vibe of her office is so calming and friendly—it’s not cold or intimidating like other places I’ve been. And her staff? Literally the nicest people. They make the process so easy, and everyone is so welcoming that it almost feels like you’re hanging out instead of doing something you used to dread. If you’re scared of the dentist or just haven’t found someone you really trust, you have to go to Dr. Vivian. She’s seriously a game-changer, and I actually don’t mind going to the dentist now—like, who even am I?!
Dr.Viviana and her team did a great job on my teeth cleaning. Super helpful and friendly. Highly recommend.
Great experience! love that I found a new dentist that is welcoming and knowledgeable.
I received the best service from the Stellenwerf Dental Studio I have ever received from a medical practitioner. After breaking a tooth, they were able to see me on short notice, diagnose the problem, refer me to an oral surgeon, and provide me with a temporary replacement in less than four days. I’m very grateful for the services provided and highly recommend Drs Stellenwerf.

Veneers FAQ
How should I care for my porcelain veneers?
To keep your veneers looking their best, brush them daily with a soft-bristled toothbrush and nonabrasive toothpaste. For a deeper clean that reaches your gumline, use mouthwash, dental floss, or a water flosser. Avoid over-brushing and steer clear of harsh chemicals, like whitening agents, unless your dentist approves them.
Will porcelain veneers damage my teeth?
Generally, porcelain veneers applied by a skilled professional, such as those at Stellenwerf Dental Studio, should not harm your teeth. Issues can occur if the veneers are improperly placed. In these situations, too much enamel may be removed, which can weaken your teeth and make them more prone to damage and breakage.
How long do porcelain veneers last?
When applied and cared for correctly, porcelain veneers can last 10 to 15 years. To maximize their longevity, maintain a thorough oral hygiene routine with regular brushing and flossing. It's also advisable to avoid hard, sticky, or chewy foods to keep your veneers in optimal shape.
