Dr. Scott Schmitt can conceal dental imperfections with natural-looking veneers at our offices in Altamonte Springs and Mount Dora, FL.
Discover what this cosmetic dentistry procedure can do for you.
Veneers Are a Versatile Solution
Dr. Schmitt's advanced training and personal dedication to extreme detail make him uniquely qualified for porcelain veneers. The procedure can mask several common concerns including:
Your teeth can get worn down for various reasons including your lifestyle, diet, or bruxism. Veneers can elongate the look of short teeth for a healthier-looking smile.
Intrinsic stains are rooted deep beneath the tooth surface, rendering whitening treatments ineffective. Veneers will conceal discolored enamel, leaving your teeth a stunning shade of white.
Veneers can effectively cover up chips through a custom-designed shell capping the entire front surface of the tooth.
Cracks can detract from an otherwise beautiful smile. We can place one veneer or several to mask this common cosmetic issue.
Porcelain veneers can even address minor misalignment and irregularly shaped teeth by achieving better symmetry.

Dental veneers are thin shells of tooth-colored porcelain that are bonded directly to the front surfaces of your teeth.
Dr. Schmitt provides patients throughout the greater Orlando area with incredibly lifelike results.
Why Choose Schmitt Prosthodontics?
Patients often underestimate the importance of choosing an experienced provider for their cosmetic dentistry. Dr. Schmitt is a prosthodontic specialist who has undergone extensive training in this branch of dentistry.
Another aspect of dental treatment (and especially porcelain veneers) that is important but frequently misunderstood is the role of the dental technician. Our practice works in close collaboration with skilled technicians who understand the intricate processes of crafting porcelain and zirconia restorations. When receiving porcelain veneers at our Altamonte Springs or Mount Dora offices, you can meet the technician and directly express your desires for the final result. Designing your restorations is a detailed creative process, but the fine craftsmanship of hand-made veneers will always surpass veneers mass-produced by a machine.

Patients will first undergo a consultation at our Altamonte Springs or Mount Dora office to find out if porcelain veneers are the best option for their needs. Important factors we take into account before moving forward with treatment include:
Oral Health
Patients should have good oral health before getting started on cosmetic dentistry. Dr. Schmitt will first correct any tooth or gum problems you may have to give you the best foundation for your veneers.
Bruxism
Bruxism (teeth grinding) can damage veneers. If you suffer from bruxism, Dr. Schmitt may recommend wearing a mouthguard at night to protect your restorations.
Treatment Goals
It is important to remember that veneers alter your natural tooth structure, so you must be committed to future upkeep. If your goal is to have a more permanent solution to dental flaws, veneers are a great option. However, if you are unsure about making a permanent change, we offer reversible procedures like dental bonding.

Our Altamonte Springs–area practice takes the time to learn about your needs in order to craft restorations that exceed your expectations. During the planning stages of treatment, we take precise digital scans of your smile and design your veneers to match your exact specifications. Then we send the impressions to our partner lab where the veneers are hand-crafted from premium materials like porcelain and zirconia.

View on GoogleThe Importance of At-Home Dental Care for Your Veneers
Good home care is essential for two reasons. The first is the longevity of your porcelain veneers. Each day, remember to brush twice for two minutes, ideally after eating. You should also still floss between your veneers each day. Floss usage prevents inflammation and gum recession, allowing your smile to remain healthy and beautiful.
The second reason why you should always practice good at-home dental care is because of its positive effects on your oral health. Spending just a handful of minutes a day on good oral hygiene can prevent periodontal disease, tooth loss, and root canal infections.
In addition to brushing your teeth, don't forget to cover your tongue and gums as well. That way, you are thoroughly cleaning away any possible bacteria. Not to mention, this can keep your breath smelling fresher too.
We Believe in Transparent Treatment. To Prove It, We're Answering Some Veneers FAQ
Like many of our patients in Altamonte Springs, you may have a few questions about veneers. Dr. Schmitt will be happy to answer them during your consultation. In the meantime, here are some questions that we hear commonly:
How long do veneers last?
With proper care and maintenance, porcelain veneers can last about 10 years. The care you put into your smile will help your veneers last longer, so remember to eat mindfully and practice good oral hygiene.
Will people be able to tell if I have veneers?
They likely will not — and that's a good thing! When creating veneers, we use lifelike materials like porcelain and zirconia for a natural-looking smile. Your dentistry solution will be functional while also blending in with the rest of your teeth.
Can veneers be used on all teeth?
No, veneers are not used on posterior teeth or molars. Though veneers can easily refine the teeth in the front of your smile, like the canines and incisors, you will likely need bonding or crowns if you wish to address concerns with your posterior teeth.
Can I get a veneer on just one tooth?
Yes, our prosthodontist can place a veneer on a single tooth, on several teeth, or on all the teeth at the front of your mouth.
Need More Answers?
While veneers are not covered by insurance, they may be more affordable than you think.

Smile Confidently Again
Alternative Cosmetic Treatments
If you decide that veneers are not right for you, our dentist can provide an alternative cosmetic solution such as:
While intrinsic stains are better addressed with veneers, extrinsic stains on the outer layer of enamel can usually be removed through teeth whitening. Unlike store-bought whiteners, professional treatment is incredibly effective and safe even for sensitive teeth. Our whitening system can remove years of discoloration in a single session.
If you are not ready to make a permanent change to your smile, dental bonding provides a reversible solution for minor cracks, chips, and gaps in your teeth. Bonding is a tooth-colored resin that we apply directly to your enamel and sculpt to match the shape of your teeth. While not as long-lasting as veneers, composite resin can be an easy and affordable alternative.
Sometimes a cosmetic problem also impacts the structural integrity of your tooth. Deep cracks, fractures, and wear can put you at risk for infection and may eventually cause you to lose the tooth. Rather than place a veneer, we may recommend a dental crown that caps the entire outer layer of your tooth and improves its function as well as aesthetics.
