The Benefits
What Porcelain Veneers Give You
Porcelain veneers change how your front teeth look with very little preparation, and at Dr. Nahlah's practice you see the design before any enamel is removed.
Covers Deep Stains
Porcelain covers the front of the tooth, so discoloration that whitening cannot shift no longer shows.
Minimal Preparation
Less than a millimeter of enamel is removed from the front of each tooth, just enough for the veneer to sit flush.
As Few as Two Visits
Once the design is settled, one appointment prepares and scans your teeth and a second fits and bonds the veneers.
Suits Your Face
Each veneer is hand-designed in size, shape and color so it sits naturally with your gum line, lips and skin tone.
Little Upkeep
Porcelain does not stain the way natural enamel does, and you look after veneers by brushing and flossing as before.

Questions
Veneers in McLean: Your Questions Answered
Who designs and fits veneers at the Tysons Corner office?
I plan each case with my practice’s lab designer and bond the veneers myself. The porcelain is made in the lab in Suite 220.The Tysons Corner office →
Will I have temporary veneers?
Yes. After the teeth are prepared and scanned, you wear temporary veneers that copy the approved design until the porcelain is ready. They come off at the bonding visit.
How much tooth is removed for a veneer?
Less than a millimeter of enamel from the front surface of each tooth, so the veneer sits flush. Lost enamel does not come back, which is why you see the trial smile and approve the design first.Porcelain veneers explained →
Do porcelain veneers change color?
Porcelain keeps the shade it is made in and does not pick up stain the way enamel does. If whitening is in your plan it is done first, and the veneers are matched to the whitened teeth.Teeth whitening →
Can veneers straighten crooked teeth?
Mildly crooked, gapped or uneven front teeth, yes: each veneer changes how its tooth looks within the smile. A bite that is out of line is a different problem, and it gets a different answer.
Where do I park for the McLean office?
Under the building at 7901 Jones Branch Drive. The office is Suite 220, on the second floor, open Monday to Thursday 8 am to 5 pm and Friday 8 am to 2 pm.Open in Google Maps →
