What veneers can change
Porcelain veneers change the color, shape, length, and spacing of the teeth that show when you smile. They cover concerns that whitening can't reach and reshape edges that bonding can't hold for long.
Who's a good candidate for veneers
Veneers work best on healthy teeth and gums with enough enamel to bond to. At your exam, our dentists check your bite and look for grinding or wear, because a heavy bite can chip porcelain. If you grind, we'll plan for it, often with a nightguard, before we place anything.
Your veneer options at Brickyard Dental Group
Porcelain veneers
Porcelain veneers are custom shells shaped and shaded to match your face and the teeth around them. We craft some veneers in our office and work with a dental lab on others, depending on your case. Either way, you approve the design on screen first.
No-prep veneers
No-prep veneers bond to the tooth with little or no enamel removed. Brickyard Dental Group offers them for some patients, when the tooth's position and enamel allow it. Your dentist will tell you at the exam whether your teeth qualify.
Dental bonding, the smaller fix
Bonding repairs a single chip or small gap with tooth-colored resin, often in one appointment. It costs less than a veneer, and it may stain or need refreshing over time. It's the right call when only one or two teeth need a small change; read more on our cosmetic dentistry page.
Crowns and whitening alongside veneers
A cracked, heavily filled, or worn-down tooth needs a crown rather than a veneer, because a crown covers the whole tooth. We shade our dental crowns to match new veneers. Many patients also whiten first with Zoom, and we then match the veneers to the brighter shade.
How veneers work here, step by step
Veneer treatment at Brickyard Dental Group moves in four stages: exam and imaging, digital preview, preparation, and placement. You approve the plan and the written estimate before stage three begins.
Exam and imaging
Your dentist examines your bite, gums, and enamel, and we take digital x-rays and an intraoral scan. Larger cosmetic cases also get a CBCT scan.
Digital preview
You see the proposed shape, length, and shade on screen and tell us what to adjust. You get the per-tooth estimate in writing.
Preparation
Your dentist shapes the teeth as little as the design requires. When your case calls for it, we place temporary veneers so you can test-drive the look.
Placement
We check fit, shade, and bite, then bond the final veneers and polish the edges.
Columbia veneers, quoted per tooth in writing
We price veneers per tooth, so your total depends on how many teeth show when you smile. After the exam and digital preview, you get a written estimate, and we prepare nothing until you approve it.
Dental insurance usually treats veneers as cosmetic and does not cover them. Brickyard Dental Group is not contracted with insurance networks, but our front office verifies your benefits and files a claim for any part of your treatment that may qualify, such as a crown on a damaged tooth. You can read why we stay out of network.
CareCredit, Cherry, and iCredit Works let you spread the cost of veneers into monthly payments. Ask the front office which plan fits before your preparation visit.

Questions about veneers in Columbia
Brickyard Dental Group prices veneers per tooth, so the total depends on how many teeth you want to change. You receive a written estimate after the exam and digital preview, before we prepare any tooth. CareCredit, Cherry, and iCredit Works can split the cost into monthly payments.
Veneer treatment runs in four stages: exam and imaging, digital preview, preparation, and placement. The number of visits depends on how many teeth you treat and whether we craft your veneers in our office or with a dental lab. Your dentist gives you the schedule for your case at the preview visit.
Yes, when your dentist designs them for your face rather than from a catalog. Our dentists match the shade, shape, and length to your other teeth and your lip line, and you review the design on screen before we make anything. We can also place temporary veneers in some cases so you see the shape in real life first.
Most patients feel pressure rather than pain, because your dentist numbs the area before shaping any tooth. Nitrous oxide and oral sedation are available if you feel anxious, and Dr. Barno and Dr. Gray can provide moderate IV sedation for longer appointments. Some sensitivity to cold in the first days after placement is normal and fades.
Some patients can. No-prep veneers work when the tooth sits slightly back or is small enough that adding porcelain does not make it look bulky. Your dentist checks enamel and tooth position at the exam and tells you whether no-prep, minimal-prep, or traditional veneers fit your smile.
Start with an exam at Brickyard Dental Group, and we'll tell you the smallest treatment that reaches your goal. Columbia veneers are the right answer for some smiles and the wrong one for others. Whitening handles surface stains, bonding handles a single chip or small gap, and veneers handle several teeth that need a new color, shape, or length together. You can read about what to expect at your first visit before you book.
Porcelain veneers last for years when the teeth under them stay healthy and you protect your bite. Grinding, biting fingernails or ice, and skipping checkups shorten their life, which is why we check for wear before placing them. Brush and floss as usual, wear a nightguard if we recommend one, and keep your regular cleanings.
Usually not, because most plans classify veneers as cosmetic. Brickyard Dental Group verifies your benefits before treatment and files a claim for any work that may qualify, such as a crown on a damaged tooth. Our full dental services follow the same approach: you see the figure in writing first.
