Porcelain Veneers in Aliso Viejo — Crafted Down the Hall, Not Shipped to a Lab
Dr. Tafreshi designs your veneers with the ceramist who makes them — shade matched to your face in person, prepared conservatively, and adjusted the same visit. And if bonding or whitening would serve you better, that's what we'll tell you.

What Veneers Fix Well — and When They Should Wait
Veneers are a precise tool, not a cure-all. Here's where they shine, and where Dr. Tafreshi will steer you elsewhere first.
Chips & Worn Edges
Edges shortened by years of wear or small fractures are rebuilt in ceramic that mimics natural enamel's translucency.
Stains Whitening Can't Fix
Tetracycline discoloration, fluorosis, and single dark teeth that don't respond to bleaching can be masked with layered porcelain.
Gaps & Minor Misalignment
Small gaps and mildly rotated front teeth can be visually corrected without braces — when the bite allows it.
Shape & Proportion
Undersized, uneven, or mismatched front teeth are redesigned so length, width, and symmetry suit your face — not a template.
Who Should Wait on Veneers
Active decay or gum disease gets treated first — always. Heavy grinding needs a protection plan before porcelain, and sometimes bonding or whitening is simply the better answer. We'll say so.
The In-House Ceramist Difference
Most offices send veneer cases to an outside lab with a shade photo and hope. Here, the ceramist who builds your veneers works in the same building — and meets you.
