✓ Medically reviewedby Dr. Puja Bansal, BDS · 27 years' experience · Last updated June 2026

What are porcelain veneers?

A porcelain veneer is a very thin, custom-made shell of tooth-coloured porcelain bonded to the front of a tooth. Covering the visible surface lets veneers reshape teeth and improve their colour, shape and alignment for a more uniform, natural-looking smile.

At Prudent Dental Care Clinic in Viman Nagar, veneers are planned and placed by Dr. Puja Bansal (BDS), who has a focus in cosmetic and aesthetic dentistry. Each shell is custom made by a dental laboratory in Pune for the right shape and shade. Treatment starts with a consultation, so the result is planned around your smile.

Step by step

What does getting porcelain veneers involve?

1

Consultation & smile planning

We examine your teeth and gums, discuss the look you want, and agree which teeth to treat and a shade with you.

2

Tooth preparation & impression

The front of each tooth is lightly shaped to make room for the veneer, and an impression is taken for the laboratory.

3

Laboratory fabrication

A dental laboratory custom makes each porcelain veneer to the agreed shape and colour while you wait between visits.

4

Bonding & finishing

At the second visit the teeth are cleaned, the veneer is bonded with adhesive cement, and a curing light sets the bond.

You will receive aftercare instructions once your veneers are fitted. Proper brushing, flossing and regular dental check-ups help your veneers last.

Veneers vs crowns vs teeth whitening

Option	How much tooth is altered	Mainly fixes	Good for
Porcelain veneer	A thin layer shaped from the front of the tooth	Shape, colour and minor alignment of front teeth	Reshaping chipped, worn, stained or unevenly spaced front teeth
Crown	The whole tooth is reduced and capped	Strength of a broken-down or heavily filled tooth	Teeth that need full coverage as well as an improved look
Teeth whitening	No tooth surface is removed	Surface and deeper staining only	Lightening the shade of otherwise healthy, well-shaped teeth

The right choice depends on the condition and position of your teeth and what you want to change. Dr. Bansal will recommend what suits you at your consultation.

When porcelain veneers may be considered

What about cost?

There is no single price for porcelain veneers, because every smile is different. The total depends on how many teeth you are treating, the material chosen and any preparatory care needed first. After your consultation, we give you a clear, written quote so you know exactly what to expect, with no surprises.

FAQ

Porcelain veneer FAQs

What problems can porcelain veneers fix?

Veneers are mainly used for cosmetic reasons. They mask discoloured, chipped, worn, slightly crooked, misshapen or unevenly spaced front teeth. They are a cosmetic option rather than a treatment for decay or gum disease, which are addressed first.

How many visits do porcelain veneers take?

Getting porcelain veneers usually takes two visits. At the first visit the teeth are lightly prepared and an impression is taken, and the veneers are then made in a dental laboratory. At the second visit they are bonded to your teeth. Little or no anaesthesia is typically needed.

Are veneers permanent or reversible?

Because a thin layer of enamel is usually shaped from the tooth to make room for the veneer, the preparation is generally not reversible. Veneers themselves are durable but not permanent and may need replacement over time. It is worth discussing the trade-offs with your dentist first.

Do veneers damage your natural teeth?

Veneers require a small amount of enamel to be shaped from the front of the tooth. When placed and maintained well, the underlying tooth stays protected. Good brushing, flossing and regular check-ups are important to keep the tooth and gum beneath the veneer healthy.

How do I care for porcelain veneers?

Care for veneers much like natural teeth: brush twice a day, floss, and keep your routine dental visits. Avoid biting very hard objects, and tell your dentist if you grind your teeth, as this can affect how long veneers last.

How much do porcelain veneers cost in Pune?

There is no single price, because cost depends on how many teeth are being treated and the material used. We provide a clear, personalised quote after your consultation rather than a fixed online price.
