A veneer is a thin porcelain covering placed over the facing of a tooth to enhance its color and shape. When veneers are placed on adjacent teeth, crowding and malalignment can be corrected or erased. Because porcelain veneers are carefully sculpted and shaped, many people feel they have gone through instant orthodontics. Porcelian Veneers have a longevity of at least ten to 15 years due to the strength of the porcelain and the extreme thinness of the cement. To achieve the best depth of color translucency and iridescence, the structure of the teeth to be veneered must be reduced both facially and in length approximately half a millimeter. Veneers should wrap around the chewing edge and go interproximally between teeth to create life-like translucency and contour. If patients are interested in bleaching or tooth whitening, this should be achieved prior to veneering, as restorations will not whiten.

I have not been to the dentist in years. I was in pain and Dr. Fiss was the only dentist willing to see me on a short notice. The staff and Dr. Fiss were welcoming and thorough. I am thrilled to have found a dentist that is caring and patient. The staff made my anxiety bearable. My initial visit was for an emergency and I have found my primary dentist provider.
Dr. Fiss is the best in his field. I’ve had, filings, veneers, crowns and great checkups over the past 25 years. I would recommend Dr. Fiss to anyone who wants an amazing smile. I’ve had other dentists but no one comes remotely close to the care and quality of work that Dr Fiss brings to his patients. This level of quality emanates from him to all of his staff. His hygienists are on top of their game – they are thorough, meticulous, smart and friendly.(I’m talking to you Shelley!). You are greeted and sent on your way, until the next appointment, by the friendliest of staff, Suzanne and Jodi. Dr. Fiss is the dentist truly puts his patients first. And that puts him first in my book.
Don’t take my word for it. Give Dr. Fiss a visit, your smile will thank you for it.
About Front Desk: None better. Suzanne and Jodi are top-notch and I don't think there are two people that can match the professionalism and friendliness of these two.
