Bottoms, DDS, we create stunning, lifelike smiles using high-quality dental veneers in Winston-Salem, including porcelain veneers, prepless options, and expert veneer restoration.

What Are Veneers?
Veneers are thin, custom-made shells bonded to the front of your teeth to improve the shape, color, and alignment of your smile. They’re ideal for correcting:
- Discolored or deeply stained teeth
- Worn down or chipped teeth
- Uneven spacing or small gaps
- Mildly crooked or misshapen teeth
- Teeth that are too small or uneven in size
Unlike whitening or bonding, veneers offer a durable and lasting cosmetic solution with precise shade and shape control.
Types of Veneers We Offer
Porcelain Veneers
Porcelain veneers are the gold standard in cosmetic dentistry. They’re ultra-thin, highly durable, and mimic the translucency of natural enamel. Each veneer is custom-designed and handcrafted by a dental lab to match your facial aesthetics and smile goals.
- Stain-resistant and long-lasting
- Excellent for dramatic transformations
- Ideal for patients with deep stains or multiple cosmetic concerns
- Typically require minimal enamel preparation
Prepless Dental Veneers
For the right candidates, prepless veneers offer cosmetic enhancement without altering the natural tooth structure. These ultra-thin shells are bonded directly to the enamel — no drilling or anesthesia required.
- Conservative and reversible
- Great for minor spacing, shape, or color improvements
- Suitable for patients with strong, healthy enamel
- Quicker, less invasive process than traditional veneers
Dr. Bottoms will determine if you're a good candidate for prepless veneers based on a thorough evaluation of your smile and bite.

What to Expect During the Veneer Process
- Consultation: We listen to your goals, examine your smile, and determine which veneer option is best for your needs
- Digital Design & Preview: We use digital imaging to plan your ideal tooth shape, length, and shade — and may create a mock-up so you can visualize results.
- Preparation (if needed): For porcelain veneers, we conservatively prepare the tooth surface and take impressions
- Custom Fabrication: Your veneers are hand-crafted in a dental lab for a perfect fit and natural appearance.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long do porcelain veneers last?
With proper care, porcelain veneers typically last 10–15 years or longer. We evaluate them during routine cleanings and exams to monitor longevity.
Are veneers permanent?
Traditional veneers require slight enamel removal and are considered a permanent treatment. Prepless veneers may be reversible depending on the case.
Will veneers look fake?
Not at all. When crafted with precision, veneers look incredibly natural — we focus on subtle, balanced enhancements that reflect light like real enamel.
Can I whiten veneers?
Veneers don’t respond to whitening, so we recommend whitening your natural teeth beforehand if you want an overall brighter smile.
What’s the difference between bonding and veneers?
Dental bonding is a more affordable, same-day option for minor flaws. Veneers are more durable and offer longer-lasting, comprehensive aesthetic improvement.
